We have hired Rebecca many times to sit for my mother who is in her 80's and has dementia. Rebecca is always punctual and dependable. She follows instructions well and if she every has a question she doesn't take things for granted and she contacts us right away. She is respectful of our home, and even goes above and beyond doing some light cleaning while there. She also feeds our cat while we are out of away. She has sat for us on Weekend days, and for multiple 24hr periods when we went out of town. She is very considerate and caring and we would recommend her.

Hello my name is Charlene I live in Jackson. I have spent most of my adult life caring for my elderly family members. As well as the senior community. I have always been involved in hands on care from administering medication to major surgeries and illnesses. In example diabetes, dementia, bypass surgery and varying degrees of cancer unfortunately. I am a nurturing compassionate person and have a great deal of respect and admiration for my elders. I truly am blessed to have been raised by a family who instilled the best qualities of compassion and understanding on to me. It is my passion to make the lives of others as fulfilling as possible in my care.

FAQs for finding senior care

What are my senior care options?

When it comes to creating a care plan for an elder loved one, there are different alternatives to explore depending on the wishes of the senior and their family, and the level of care needed. Some of the options are:

  • In-home senior care is a great option for seniors who want to stay at home and just need a companion for daily activities.
  • Nursing assistants can provide medical assistance for seniors in the comfort of their own home.
  • Dementia care is a suitable choice for elders with Alzheimer's or dementia who need specialized care at home.
  • Senior transportation is an option for finding caregivers who can drive your loved ones as needed for errands or doctor appointments.
  • Assisted living facilities are helpful when it's more convenient to move the senior person into a monitored residence where they can receive assistance with their daily activities and socialize with other residents.
  • Nursing homes can provide long-term medical and personal care for an elder loved one who can't be cared for at home.
    • How can I find an in-home senior care provider?
    After creating an account, you will have the option to either post a job that can be seen by our large pool of senior caregivers, or you can also search caregivers from our platform, based on years of experience, hourly rate, availability, distance from your location, etc. After you have selected your candidates, you can schedule interviews, check references, request additional background checks, and hire the caregiver who best meets your needs.
    How much does in-home senior care cost?
    The average senior care rate charged by caregivers on Care.com as of January, 2021 is $14.50 per hour. This rate may vary depending on the services required when caring for the elderly at home. The hourly rate will also be impacted by your location, the caregiver's years of experience, level of education, and if they have any credentials or nursing degrees.
    What services are included for senior care at home?
    Besides companionship, most in-home caregivers for seniors can help with their daily activities, such as getting around the house safely, meal prep, light housekeeping, and medication reminders, as well as taking them for walks and driving them to medical appointments or errands. In addition to general home help for seniors, there are also caregivers who can assist with bathing, dressing, feeding, overnight watch, and dementia care.
