Can Live In Help Give you a Higher Comfort Level?
Most clients prefer as few employees as possible. Live in cases generally have one primary live in and a couple of back up aides.
A good way of evaluating the need for live in help versus hourly round the clock help is to determine if one person can handle the care load. If not then the caregiver will ‘burn out’ and quit the job after a short period of time. Analyze the hours each day that the aide will need to be attentive. Note – A live in needs a good nights sleep in order to provide care the next day.
