TLC at Home provides a
Better
Alternative to placing loved ones in a nursing
home. The staff at TLC at Home
are familiar with the unique requirements of servicing the
elderly and can assist with providing affordable, non-medical
companionship, assistance with housekeeping or errands as
well as routine daily care. Many of our clients find that
our caregivers are more affordable than many nursing homes.
Studies
have shown that elderly individuals placed in nursing homes
tend to become depressed much more frequently. In addition,
nursing homes may have a ratio of 1 caregiver to 6 or more
patients. Many times patients in a nursing home environment
don’t receive the one-on-one care they deserve. TLC
at Home can assist your family in providing a high
quality one-on-one caregiver that will assist your loved
one with all of their daily care. Our caregivers can provide
either full time, part-time, occasional, live-in or live-out
elder care. We also offer home monitoring systems for elderly
individuals that are still living alone.
While TLC at Home caregivers can not replace
the love and continued support of a family member, our caregivers
CAN provide these helpful and necessary services that reduce
the difficult time consuming and often stressful aspects
of caregiving;

All of the above services can be provided as often or as
infrequently as necessary. Many clients choose caregivers
on a full time permanent basis, while other clients choose
to utilize these services on an as needed basis only.
TLC at Home is very sensitive to the budget
constraints of the elderly. Most agencies charge up to $150.00
per day for their services. At TLC at Home
many of our caregivers will provide the same services for
30 to 40% less. This can represent a significant monthly
savings in many cases. |
