What is 24-Hour Home Care?
24-hour home care is having someone by your loved one’s side all day, every day. Imagine it’s late afternoon, and your mom is getting ready to cook dinner. She suddenly feels dizzy and has trouble steadying herself. With 24-hour home care, a caregiver is right there to help her sit down, grab a glass of water, and make sure she’s okay. No waiting, no panic—just immediate support when it’s needed most.
24-hour home care provides around-the-clock, continuous support for seniors right in the comfort of their own home. This type of care is designed for those who need constant attention due to various health or mobility issues. From helping with personal care activities and meal preparation to nighttime assistance and companionship, 24-hour home care enables seniors to age in place, staying in a familiar environment while receiving professional care.

How Much Does 24-Hour Home Care Cost?
The cost of in-home senior care can vary widely depending on factors such as location, the level of care needed, and additional services required. More specialty care, such as dementia care, Alzheimer’s disease, or around-the-clock assistance, may be significantly more expensive than simple personal care.
To get accurate and personalized cost estimates, a Home Matters Aging Coach will conduct a complimentary care evaluation to determine individual needs and circumstances. Schedule a no-obligation appointment with an Aging Coach to get a better understanding of the cost structure in your area and discuss payment options, veterans benefits, or insurance coverage, if applicable.
