Home health care focuses on medical treatment and is a clinical service. A nurse or therapist comes to the home for skilled services such as wound care, injections, occupational or physical therapy, usually for a short period after surgery or illness, with a doctor’s order.
Home care is very different. Home care focuses on supporting Activities of Daily Living, which include basic self-care tasks like bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, transferring, and continence.
At Options Home Care, we provide hands-on help with everyday life. That includes bathing, dressing, mobility, meal preparation, companionship, memory care, and ongoing support. It is not limited to a medical episode. Care is built around helping your loved one live safely and comfortably at home long-term.
What sets us apart is that we do more than simply send a caregiver. We create a personalized care plan, coordinate discharge planning when your loved one returns home from the hospital, and provide daily personal care, live-in care, and respite care as needed. Our AI-enhanced home care tools also help families stay connected and informed while their loved one remains independent at home.
Rather than only supporting a condition, we support the whole person.
Activities of Daily Living, often called ADLs, are basic self-care tasks that a person must be able to perform to live independently. These typically include:
ADLs matter because many benefits programs use them to determine eligibility. Most long-term care insurance policies require that a person need assistance with at least two ADLs before benefits begin. Certain veterans’ programs require assistance with three ADLs to qualify for home care services.
If your loved one is struggling with these daily tasks, we can help assess their needs and guide you through the next steps for coverage and care planning.
Live-in care means one dedicated caregiver lives in the home and provides ongoing support throughout the day and overnight. They assist with personal care, mobility, meals, companionship, medication reminders, housekeeping, errands, and transportation. They sleep at night but remain available if your loved one needs them.
24-hour, round-the-clock care involves multiple caregivers rotating in shifts, coming in and out of the home throughout the day and night.
Live-in care with Options Home Care is truly one-on-one and relationship-based. Instead of a revolving door of caregivers, your loved one builds trust and familiarity with a consistent professional who becomes part of daily life. We combine that consistency with comprehensive support, from mobility assistance to meal planning and cooking, to meaningful companionship. If your loved one is transitioning home from the hospital, we also coordinate discharge planning to make their move seamless and safe.
For many families, live-in care offers the right balance of continuous support, emotional connection, and stability in the comfort of home.
At Options Home Care, we accept private pay, long-term care insurance, and Medicare Part C Advantage Plans.
Long-term care insurance is a private policy purchased years before care is needed, often in your 40s or 50s. It helps cover extended support with daily activities such as bathing, dressing, and mobility due to aging, illness, or disability. Unlike health insurance, it is designed specifically to pay for ongoing custodial care at home, in assisted living, or in a skilled nursing setting.
If you have long-term care insurance, benefits begin once you meet eligibility requirements, which typically include needing help with two or more activities of daily living or having a cognitive impairment. Our team works directly with all long-term care insurance companies to verify your coverage, initiate your claim, document services, and guide you through the reimbursement process so you can focus on care rather than paperwork.
Many of our veteran clients receive care through the VA’s Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care program. This program is part of VA health benefits and provides non-medical assistance in the home to help veterans remain safe and independent. Services typically include help with bathing, dressing, grooming, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and other daily activities.
As an accredited VA community care provider, Options Home Care can be paid directly by the VA to provide approved home care services.
To qualify, veterans must:
Once approved, we work closely with the VA and the assigned social worker to deliver consistent, personalized care at home. We can also help you through the application process.
Some veterans and surviving spouses might also qualify for additional support through programs such as VA Aid and Attendance, which can help cover non-medical home care costs depending on service history, discharge status, care needs, and financial guidelines.
Yes. Our caregivers at Options Home Care regularly help with transportation and everyday errands so your loved one can stay active, connected, and independent.
That includes rides to doctor’s appointments, therapy sessions, social outings, and community events. We also assist with grocery shopping, prescription pick-ups, post office runs, and other daily tasks.
This support is available whether you have daily care, full-time live-in care, or need short-term help through our respite care services.
Transportation service with Options Home Care is never just a drop off. Our caregivers assist with mobility, remain present during appointments if needed, and communicate updates with family. We treat every outing as part of the care plan, not just an errand.
