In-Home Care Services in Mission Viejo, CA

What happens when completing daily tasks or activities is more challenging and time consuming on a consistent basis? It happens often as we age, especially in the senior population. This can lead to increased stress, frustration and even depression over time. Help with activities can provide a sense of relief and foster independence. In-Home Care can do just that-- provide relief by maintaining a level of independence at home. The goal of In-Home Care is to keep your loved one engaged and comfortable while they adjust to this new stage of life. Home Instead San Juan Capistrano, CA, offers a customizable program to help Mission Viejo seniors and their families with in-home care. Whether a senior needs the occasional helping hand or more comprehensive and detailed plan, we are here to help.

Home Instead CAREGiver Standing with Senior Smiling

A Home Instead® study found an overwhelming majority of older adults (86%) want to continue living at home for as long as possible. As you or your loved one ages, aging in your home safely is a priority for Home Instead of San Juan Capistrano, CA. Just because someone is needing more help at home does not mean it’s time to consider a move elsewhere. Such a circumstance could, however, signal the need for more regular help at home.

Here are some signs that might indicate it is time to get in-home care for your loved one.

  • Household bills start piling up
  • Reluctance to leave the house
  • Losing interest in meals
  • Declining personal hygiene
  • Declining driving skills
  • Scorched pots and pans
  • Possible signs of depression
  • Missed doctor’s appointments and social engagements and isolation
  • Unkept house
  • Losing track of medication

It may be time to talk about more assistance at home if you notice any of these signs. It is important to have this conversation as a family. This change to accepting help may be scary for you or your aging loved one. Getting help with daily tasks can be seen as a loss of independence or freedom. Uniting everyone involved in the goal of keeping the aging adult at home is a great way of calming these nerves and working towards supporting the person in need. As this plan develops it is essential to get the support of the family and the senior to ensure this is viewed as a collective choice. Once everyone is on the same page, you can turn your focus to picking the best fit for in-home care and asking the important questions. The choice to keep a senior in the home is to aid in their comfort as they age, so you need to be comfort with where you choose to get the necessary help.
