Questions About In-Home Care Services

How do you know when a person might need in-home care services?

There are a number of warning signs that indicate in-home care services might be necessary for your loved one. The cause of these signs can be a physical ailment such as arthritis, heart disease, deteriorating vision, or a psychological problem such as depression or a developing memory disorder. Some tell-tale signs that it could be time to contact a home care agency include:

  • Memory impairment: Losing track of medications, wandering from home, missing appointments
  • Poor judgment: Not making sound decisions, not recognizing or responding to an emergency in an appropriate manner
  • Changes in mood and behavior: Reluctance to leave the house or visit friends and family, lack of interest in usual activities, isolation
  • Changes in mobility: Difficulty getting up and down the stairs, walking unsteadily, complaints of dizziness, falls are likely or have already occurred
  • Changes in driving: Getting into accidents, frequent misses, slowed reaction time, failure to see or heed traffic signals, signs of deteriorating vision, easily becoming lost in familiar areas
  • Negative changes in sleeping patterns, diet, and personal hygiene
  • Signs of bodily injury, abnormal skin color, shortness of breath, weight changes, swollen feet or ankles
  • Changes in fiscal responsibility: not paying bills on time or at all, leaving important documents in open areas

Any of these signs should prompt you or your family to investigate the problems and consult a doctor, home care agency or other professional immediately.
