It depends on your loved one’s needs and preferences—but for many families in St. Augustine, in-home care offers the most flexible and personalized support.
Most older adults prefer to age in the place they love. Whether that’s a beachside condo in Vilano, a home in World Golf Village, or a bungalow near the lighthouse, in-home care lets them stay close to everything they know.
In-home care vs. assisted living:
Assisted living offers a community setting, but it also means a move and a shift in lifestyle. In-home care allows for:
- Personalized, one-on-one attention
- Familiar routines, spaces, and comforts
- Pets, traditions, and favorite spots that feel like home
- Continuity of care with the same Care Pro
In-home care vs. private caregivers:
Hiring privately may seem simpler—but it puts you in charge of schedules, taxes, liability, and finding backup.
With Home Instead St. Augustine, you get:
- Trained, background-checked, insured Care Pros
- Professional scheduling and 24/7 support
- A local team who handles everything so you don’t have to
