For people who need continuous assistance, a live-in caregiver makes it possible to stay in the comfort of home instead of moving to a care facility. HomeCare Bridge helps Metro Vancouver families find, screen and hire a professional live-in caregiver, and sets up everything you need to become their employer.
What Live-In Care Can Include
- Personal care, including bathing and dressing
- Meal planning and preparation, light housework and laundry
- Companionship and help with daily living activities
- Support for people living with dementia or memory loss
- Someone in the home around the clock for complex situations
Live-In Care or a Night Attendant?
A live-in caregiver stays in the home to provide a 24-hour solution for complex situations. A night attendant works a long awake shift, usually 10 to 12 hours, for people who mainly need help overnight. If you are not sure which is right, we will help you decide during your free consultation.
