Sustaining daily assistance, maintaining caregiver presence at home

Some individuals require assistance throughout much of the day and may need a caregiver present in the home for extended periods rather than receiving only brief visits. Live-in home care may be considered for seniors or adults with disabilities, ongoing care needs, or limitations that make being alone for long periods difficult. The arrangement provides an extended caregiver presence in the home, with assistance focused on the individual’s established routines and day-to-day support needs. For families in Fauquier County, this type of arrangement may be considered when ongoing in-home assistance is needed, and a longer caregiver presence is appropriate.

How It Works

Depending on the individual’s needs and the scope of services, support may include:

Assistance with personal care routines

Help with mobility and transfers

Support with meals and routine household tasks

Companionship and supervision during daily activities

Assistance with established daily routines

Support with other non-medical activities within the agreed scope of care

What to Expect

Live-in home care involves a caregiver remaining in the home for an extended period while providing assistance as part of the individual’s daily routine. The person receiving care continues to carry out activities to the extent they are able, with the caregiver providing help when needed within the agreed scope of services. Because needs can change over time, the arrangement and level of assistance may be reviewed and adjusted when appropriate.
