Why Choose Home Care?

It allows individuals to receive medical and personal care in the familiar surroundings of their own home. This can significantly enhance the quality of life, providing comfort, dignity, and independence.
Steps to Set Up Home Care
1. Assess Your Needs: The first step is to determine the level of care required. This could range from personal care, such as help with daily activities, to more intensive nursing support and complex care.
2. Consult with Professionals: Speak with healthcare providers to understand the specific services needed. Classic LifeCare offers free consultations to help assess your situation and recommend the best care plan.
3. Create a Care Plan: Develop a comprehensive care plan that outlines the services needed, the frequency of care, and any special requirements. Classic LifeCare’s team works closely with clients to tailor care plans that meet individual needs and preferences.
4. Choose a Caregiver: The right caregiver can make a significant difference in the quality of care. Classic LifeCare employs highly skilled Health Care Aides who complete a thorough orientation and continuous learning through the online Classic LifeCare Academy.
5. Start the Services: Once the care plan and caregiver are in place, services can begin. Classic LifeCare ensures that clients are comfortable with their caregivers and provides continuous support and adjustments as needed.
