Home Care in Maine

Maine offers families and seniors several options when it comes to home care. With the state's home care agencies offering a range of caregivers, nurses, and home health aides, home care services provide seniors with personal care support and assistance with the activities of daily living while also allowing individuals the ability to age independently in the comfort of their own homes. Patients can rest assured that a caregiver will adapt to help their unique needs with compassion and family members can gain peace of mind knowing their loved one is receiving assistance for their senior care needs.

 

Information on Senior Care Programs and Communities in Maine

While home care is a popular senior care option for many residents, it may not be the right fit for every individual. Home care professionals can offer personal care support aiding in transportation, dressing, or meal prep, and may offer medication reminders or home health care. However, for patients who need more constant assistance than a caregiver or nurse can provide, skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities may be a better fit. Staff at these places are trained to offer on-site programs, often offering therapists or other medical services on location. These facilities can help Maine residents with recovery after surgeries or accidents or offer long-term care.

 

The Cost of a Home Care Agency

Generally, home care is one of the most affordable senior care options and is also one of the most flexible. Costs may vary by agency and may be measured in different lengths of time (hourly, monthly, yearly, etc.) Given this flexibility, people should direct questions directly to staff at home care agencies. Maine seniors eligible for Medicare or Medicaid may be able to use those programs to cover partial costs of home care services.
