Home Healthcare or In-Home Care What’s the Difference?

Home health is prescribed by Doctor and involves a registered nurse coming to your home and administering medication or checking vital signs and other medical procedures. Most of the time visits are fairly short lasting up to an hour or so. In the case of in-home care provided by Comfort Keepers of Santa Clarita our caregivers provide companionship and assist with normal day-to-day activities. Yes we can work in conjunction with home health because our caregivers do not perform any medical procedures.

The simple explanation is anything that doesn’t require a medical licensed to perform we can provide. If you’re an adult child taking care of an elderly parent that requires assistance, comfort keepers of Santa Clarita can take over giving you the time you need to work or care for other members of your family.

Comfort Keepers of Santa Clarita in-home care provides assistance with daily living like medication reminders, bathing, cooking, companionship, light house cleaning and transportation. Home health must be prescribed by a Doctor and provides a nurse to come to your home and administer medication or check on any other medical condition. Once the task is been completed their visit is over. An in-home caregiver from Comfort Keepers Santa Clarita can spend a few hours or the entire day providing the extra help you or loved one may need to live a happy and healthy life at home.
