What do In-Home Supportive Care Agencies do?

In-Home Supportive Care Agencies provide a wide range of non-medical and skilled health services to help individuals with disabilities and chronic conditions live safely and independently in their homes. 

Key services include assistance with daily activities like bathing, dressing, and meal preparation (Personal Care), support with household tasks (Homemaker Services), medication reminders, and accompaniment to appointments. 

The agencies often also offer skilled care, such as wound care or respiratory support, under the supervision of a licensed nurse, and can provide respite care for family caregivers. 

In-home care agencies typically offer a combination of these services, tailored to individual needs:

Personal Care: Assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, grooming, dressing, feeding, and mobility. 

Homemaker Services: Help with household tasks like light cleaning, meal preparation, laundry, and shopping to maintain a safe and healthy living environment. 

Skilled Care (Health Maintenance Activities): Support with health-related needs that are typically provided by a licensed practical nurse (LPN) or registered nurse (RN), such as medication administration, wound care, and respiratory support. 

Transportation: Assistance with getting to and from medical appointments and other essential outings. 

Respite Care: Temporary relief for family caregivers who are providing constant care to a loved one. 

Companionship: Social interaction and supervision to prevent loneliness and ensure safety. 

Who They Serve

These services are designed for individuals who need extra support at home due to age, chronic illness, disability, or recovery from surgery and would prefer to remain in their own homes rather than move to a facility. 

How They Operate

Oversight: Licensed nurses oversee skilled services, and caregivers are often trained to provide a range of non-medical and some medical tasks. 

Care Plans: Agencies create personalized care plans tailored to meet the specific needs of each client. 

Flexibility: Services can be provided through various models, including traditional agency-based care or more consumer-directed options where families can be trained to provide services.
