Why is a Strong Client & Caregiver Relationship Important?
Families who have a live-in caregiver from an agency other than Comfort Keepers and call looking to make a change report the following concerns:
- My current live-in is becoming "too close" with mom or dad and interfering with what our family wants.
- Our current live-in caregiver is making decisions for mom or dad that are unwanted or questioned by our family.
- Mom reports to us that the live-in caregiver is not cooking foods mom likes but rather what the caregiver likes.
- Dad reports the caregiver is leaving him for several hours unattended sitting in the chair with little to no interaction.
- The live-in caregiver we hired is hard to understand and does not know how to clean the home properly or how to cook for mom or dad.
Trust, support, and quality of care. Families can trust that when they have a concern about how care is being provided it will be addressed quickly and resolved. Both caregivers and family are supported through training and ongoing communication about changes in care needs.
What is Live-In Care?
A Comfort Keepers Live-In caregiver will help your aging loved one live as independently at home as he or she is able to do so. A member of our Care Management Team will meet with the client and family before the start of care and establish a plan of care that will enable the client to live out life at home.
- Live-In Caregivers can assist your loved one with basic activities such as showering, dressing, and encouraging physical therapy recommended exercises.
- Live-In Caregivers also assist with light housekeeping, laundry, making meals, remind your loved one to take medications, go for a walk, go grocery shopping or take your loved one to a doctor's appointment.
- Live-In services are for clients who sleep through the night and/or not in need of a 2 person transfer assist. If a 2 person transfer assist is needed or client wakes at night Comfort Keepers Care Management staff can discuss hourly staffing or live in with additional hourly staffing when needed.
- Live-In services through the Danbury CT Comfort Keepers office abide by all labor laws. We will make every effort to keep your live in caregiver schedule consistent with same staff rotating.
