One of four ways we help
Home Care
Help at home, on your terms.
What it is
When the goal is to stay at home, home care provides the hands-on help, from a few hours a week to around-the-clock support. There are two ways to arrange it, and the right one depends on how much you want to manage yourself.
Two ways to arrange it
Employ the caregiver directly.
More control and often a lower cost. You take on more of the hiring and oversight.
Let an agency manage it.
The agency employs and supervises the caregiver, with backup if someone is out. Less for you to manage.
What home care can cover
- Recovery and nursing help after a hospital stay.
- Dementia and Alzheimer's support.
- Companionship and help with daily living.
- Private-duty nursing.
FirstCall's role
We help you choose the model that fits and introduce you to the right provider.
Where it can lead
Home is not always the right answer, and a sudden medical situation needs a different kind of help. You can move sideways whenever the situation changes.
