Caring for an aging parent is a major source of stress for caregivers. Trying to manage your loved one’s health, and home, while juggling a career and raising your own family can be overwhelming.  Your health, and your relationships with your spouse and other family members, can suffer.  But what are your options?  For many in this situation, the solution is home care.  At Bayada Nurses, our nurses, aides, and therapists enable people to remain safely in their homes with comfort, independence, and dignity – and provide families with peace of mind.  

Why home care?

Patients heal more quickly at home since they are in familiar surroundings.  Home care can provide you with peace of mind, knowing that all the health care details are managed for you, and your loved ones are being cared for where they want to be.  

How do I know what home care services are needed?

For seniors who are relatively healthy but need help to remain safely at home, services from an aide, homemaker, or companion might be appropriate.  Some seniors may need help bathing and navigating stairs.  Others may require skilled services from a nurse or therapist.  Some companies, like Bayada, provide specialized services to keep those with Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s and other illnesses safe in their homes.  Through telemonitoring, those with chronic illnesses, such as CHF or Diabetes, can be watched carefully and remain out of the hospital.

How can I know that the caregivers are high quality and trustworthy?

You should consider only those home care providers whose caregivers are employees of the company – not part of a registry.  Reputable companies such as Bayada Nurses have stringent hiring standards, including checking references, criminal background, and work experience.  Bayada Nurses hires only those who provide care with compassion, excellence, and reliability – our core values.  

Make sure the provider is accredited.  Bayada Nurses is accredited by the Community Health Accreditation Program, a leader in home care accreditation.
