A steady presence at home for families in Brecksville, OH.

When your loved one nears the end of their life, there’s nothing quite as important as making them feel comfortable and supported. Whether you need around-the-clock care or part-time support, our Care Pros in Brecksville, OH partner with your family caregivers or hospice team to provide physical and emotional support for your loved one in their own home. And leaving that to us helps you focus on being there as a family—when family matters most.


Here’s how your local Home Instead can help:

  • Hands-on support – help with toileting, bathing, grooming, repositioning, and incontinence assistance.
  • A steady presence – companionship, calm reassurance, and someone there when the house feels quiet, or when it feels very full.
  • A break for the family – time to nap, take a shower, get a meal, or step outside, without worrying your loved one is alone.
  • Help around the house – light housekeeping, laundry, meal prep, and tidying up as visitors come and go.

Support that honors your loved one, and your family.

End-of-life care is personal. It’s an emotional time. Sometimes heartfelt. Sometimes exhausting and unpredictable. With this in mind, our local team in Brecksville, OH takes time to understand what comfort means to your loved one. What brings a sense of calm? What doesn’t?

We also want to get to know your family. How can we make it easier? How can we help you focus on being present as a family at a time when family matters most? Because while warmth and compassion are crucial, a steady presence and practical support can be just as important.

Care plans designed for comfort, dignity, and a sense of calm.

Whether you need a few hours a day, overnight support, or more continuous care, we’ll build a personalized care plan that supports your loved one’s comfort at home and provides some relief to you and your family caregivers.

If your family member is also receiving hospice care at home, we can work alongside that team to provide added support. In-home hospice care is an incredible service, but hospice professionals aren’t typically in the home around the clock. Our local Care Pros in Brecksville, OH can provide support between hospice visits, providing hands-on assistance with day-to-day care.

End-of-Life Care FAQs

Home Instead provides non-medical end-of-life support for people who need help with everyday care while remaining at home. Depending on the customized care plan, a Care Pro may assist with personal care, meals, mobility, companionship, laundry, and household routines.

This support can also reduce the amount of hands-on caregiving family members must manage themselves. That can give a spouse or adult child more time to simply be with their loved one rather than spending every visit focused on household or personal care tasks.

No. Hospice provides specialized clinical services for eligible people near the end of life. Home Instead provides non-medical home care.

The two can complement each other. Hospice professionals handle care within their clinical scope, while a Home Instead Care Pro can assist with everyday needs between hospice visits. Keeping those roles clear helps families understand who to contact for medical questions and who can help with personal care, meals, companionship, and household routines.

Yes. Home Instead Care Pros can provide non-medical support alongside hospice when a family is using both services.

The customized care plan may include personal care, companionship, meals, mobility assistance, laundry, and household help. This can be particularly useful when family members need more hands-on support between hospice visits. Home Instead supplements hospice rather than replacing its clinical role.

A Care Pro may assist with bathing, dressing, grooming, meals, mobility, laundry, light household tasks, and companionship, depending on the person’s needs and the customized care plan.

Support can also be directed toward the family’s practical needs. When a Care Pro handles appropriate day-to-day tasks, family members may have more time to sit together, talk, rest, or focus on being present with their loved one.

Care needs can change considerably near the end of life. Families can talk with Home Instead Brecksville about adjusting the care plan, increasing visit frequency, adding overnight help, or considering 24-hour support when appropriate and available.

The goal is to respond to what the person and family need at that stage rather than leaving them with a schedule created for an earlier point in the care journey.
