HOME CARE VS HOME HEALTH CARE
difference between home care and home health care
Home Care focuses on non-medical services to support an individual’s daily activities. These services may include:
- Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting.
- Meal preparation, light housekeeping, and transportation to appointments.
- Companionship to reduce loneliness and promote emotional well-being.
Home Health Care involves skilled medical services provided by licensed professionals. A doctor often prescribes these services, which may include:
- Nursing care includes wound care, administering medications, and managing chronic illnesses.
- Physical, occupational, and speech therapy to help recovery after surgery or illness.
- Monitoring vital signs and providing medical assessments.
What risks do seniors face without Home Care and Home Health Care?
Without proper home care or home health care, older adults may face the following challenges:
Decline in Physical Health
Lack of assistance with daily activities can lead to malnutrition, dehydration, or poor hygiene.
Increased Risk of Falls and Injuries
Older adults are more likely to fall and get injured without assistance.
