Live-in Caregiver

• There are many different types of live-in care.
  Some patients need care for a short period of
  time. Others may need a long-term caregiver.
  Still, others may need end-of-life care.
• Respite care is designed to give an existing
  caregiver a break. These caregivers might stay
  for a short period of time while the primary
  caregiver goes on vacation. On the other hand, a
  live-in respite caregiver could offer care during
  the night or while the main caregiver goes to
  work. Caring for a loved one is stressful.
  Respite caregivers help alleviate stress and
  anxiety by offering the main caregiver a chance
  to rest.

  long-term, progressive or incurable. They help
  give patients relief from pain and reduction of
  stress, quality of life, care management,
  coordination of care and dignity. When an
  illness is terminal, palliative care is combined
  with end-of-life care to help a person expire
  peacefully and pain free.

  them to keep their independence. Because the
  live-in caregiver resides with the patient, care
  is always available quickly. Live-in caregivers
  are in a better position to bond with and develop
  personal relationships with their clients. This
  lets them attend to the patients unique needs
  and tastes. The cost for a live-in caregiver is
  calculated on a monthly basis as opposed to and
  hourly one. This may provide savings for the
  cost of care.
