What is non-medical in home care?
As we age we need additional assistance,
fortunately, MasterCare allows individuals the ability to age in their
own home. Non-Medical home care provides personal assistance
to help individuals remain healthy and independent. Non-medical
home care is available in an individuals home, assisted living, adult
family home or nursing facility. Care is available for short-term
respite, hourly, overnight or 24 hour live in care.
How do I start services?
Contact MasterCare for a complementary in-home Assessment. During
this meeting with you and/or your family, the geriatric social worker
will assess your individual needs.
After the assessment, the social worker will develop
a comprehensive home care plan tailored to meet your needs. This will
include specifics on personal care, household care, healthcare and activities
the caregiver is expected to perform on their shift.
Once the assessment is completed, MasterCare will
match the most appropriate caregiver based on experience, skills and personality
for each individual's situation. MasterCare will provide an orientation
for the new caregiver where we discuss all the information covered in
the initial assessment.
