About home care
Home care agencies send trained caregivers into a senior's home to help with daily activities — bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, transportation, light housekeeping, and companionship. Some agencies also provide skilled nursing visits, physical therapy, or hospice support at home.
What to look for in home care
There are two distinct categories: non-medical home care (companion and personal-care aides) and home health care (licensed nurses, therapists, and aides under physician orders). Make sure you're comparing the right type. With either, ask whether the agency is licensed in your state, whether caregivers are employees or independent contractors (employees are usually a better signal of training and accountability), and what background checks are run. Ask how they handle a caregiver who calls out sick at 6 am — a quick, reliable backup is critical. Get specifics on minimum shift length, weekend and overnight availability, and supervisor visit frequency. Read the service agreement for the cancellation policy, mileage charges, and rate increases. Interview at least two caregivers before committing.
Cost & payment
Non-medical home care in the U.S. averages $30–$40 per hour, with most agencies requiring a 3- or 4-hour minimum per visit. Live-in or 24-hour care runs $300–$500+ per day. Medicare generally does NOT pay for non-medical home care; it does cover short-term home health care (skilled nursing or therapy) following a hospitalization. Long-term-care insurance, VA Aid & Attendance, and some state Medicaid waivers may cover non-medical care for eligible seniors. In Canada, publicly-funded home care is available through provincial programs with eligibility assessments.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between home care and home health care?
Home care is non-medical: help with bathing, meals, housekeeping, and companionship. Home health care is medical: nursing, physical therapy, and other services provided under physician orders, usually short-term and often covered by Medicare.
Does Medicare pay for home care?
Medicare covers short-term home health care (skilled nursing or therapy) after a qualifying need is established by a doctor. Medicare does NOT cover ongoing non-medical care like bathing or companionship. Some long-term-care insurance policies and state Medicaid waivers will.
How much does home care cost?
In the U.S., non-medical care averages $30–$40 per hour with a 3-4 hour minimum. Live-in care runs $300–$500+ per day. Rates vary by region, agency, and caregiver skill level.
Are home care agency caregivers screened?
Reputable agencies background-check, drug-test, verify references, and confirm work eligibility. Ask the agency to walk you through their specific process and ask how recently the caregiver assigned to your loved one was screened.
What happens if our regular caregiver calls in sick?
A good agency has a roster of backup caregivers and can send a substitute within hours. Ask specifically how they handle morning call-outs — this is the most common failure point.
