I have a lady that comes out from Home Instead. I’ve been using them for about three or four years now. I use them all the time, three times a week, Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. My caregiver is very friendly and very beautiful. She does everything she’s supposed to do. She keeps my house. I love her personality. The agency keeps up with what she does and if she’s not able to come, they make sure they let me know. They’re prompt with everything. I’m not the last to know anything, and I really love my caregiver. They provide homecare and if I need certain things. She does light housekeeping and provides companionship. They let me know if she’s not able to come in and they’ll send a replacement, but I don’t want a replacement because I like Eileen in my house. I don’t like different people in my house. I’m used to her and I trust her. I have no problem with them. I don’t want another agency. I like them.

We all felt very good about them having a really flexible schedule. They’ve been great. We have been very happy with this agency. We really enjoy the person that works with us. My mom seems to be very comfortable with her. She would do light house cleaning, make the bed, and help my mom with her showering and shampooing. She’ll pretty much do whatever we ask of her. If we’re going out for a while and we don’t want to leave Mom all alone, we will have the home health care person come over and she’ll keep my mom company. She is extremely sensitivity with whatever my mom needs. She jumps right out to help Mom even though we’re there. I was really impressed with that. We feel comfortable with her. She seems to really put Mom first and focuses on her even when we’re there.

My father is using Superior Care Home Care. Everything’s been very positive. We were able to establish care to the personnel. She’s very proactive and caring. My parents feel comfortable with her. She’s very upbeat and positive, which is great. She’s like a busy bee and looks for ways to spend quality time with my father. My mom and my sister were cleaning out a closet. They found a chessboard. I guess my dad alluded that he used to play. My mom doesn’t really have the energy or the time to do that, so the caregiver offered. She was like, "Oh maybe one day we can do an activity, and we can play." I thought that was very thoughtful. I know that it would be also helpful to him to have an activity that he not only would enjoy, but will get him thinking and using his hands.

We first met Tori, Senior Helpers representative, in May 2016 when we had to face the inevitable fact that our mom was leaving the hospital to go home under Hospice care. Tori and the Senior Helpers staff were by our side from that day on until our mother passed on May 5, 2016. The Senior Helper and nurse were at Mom’s house the moment we arrived from the hospital. There was a glitch in the Hospice transition and Jennifer, Senior Helpers nurse, stayed with us and provided guidance until 1 a.m. when Hospice finally arrived. Throughout the next 10 days, Senior Helpers were with our Mom 24/7, lovingly taking care of her every need. They were a joy to have in our home and dedicated to providing our mother with respectful care and concern in a warm and friendly way. Thanks to Senior Helpers and Hospice our Mother passed away with her dignity and privacy in tact. We would highly recommend Senior Helpers for all families in need of this service.

Financial Assistance for Home Care in Winter Garden, FL
Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Long-Term Care Insurance: Long-Term Care Insurance covers expenses related to senior care, including in-home care. Depending on the policy type, beneficiaries may receive a cash payment to use towards long-term care or reimbursement for qualifying long-term care expenses. Note that there are limitations- typically a maximum benefit of $150 per day- and exact coverage terms vary depending on the exact policy, so always check the details.
Medicare: Medicare does not cover in-home care because it is classified as custodial, or non-medical, care. However, some Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement plans, which offer expanded benefits, may cover in-home custodial care.
Medicaid: Medicaid coverage of in-home care varies between different states because it is not a federally mandated benefit. Currently, all states cover some in-home care either through their standard Medicaid or a waiver program. The specific coverage rules are set individually by each state.
Veterans’ Benefits: The Aid and Attendance benefit is a monthly cash payment that beneficiaries can use to pay for senior care, including in-home care services. To qualify for A&A, Veterans must already receive the VA pension and meet several additional requirements, including needing assistance with the activities of daily living.Contact the Department of Veterans Affairs to learn more.
Reverse Mortgages: Home Equity Conversion Mortgages (HECMs) are federally insured loans that are available to homeowners age 62 and over. Reverse mortgages allow you to access a portion of your home’s equity in cash, tax free. Many seniors use reverse mortgages to finance their care expenses, including in-home care. Note that although there are no monthly payments due on reverse mortgage loans, borrowers do have to repay the loan once the last surviving homeowner passes away, moves, or sells the home.
