How does home care benefit the family as a whole?

Why this resource is helpful:

"In the past and in other places, generations of family lived together or very close to one another. Younger family members learned from the wisdom of elders, and in turn the younger generations made sure that their elders were comfortable and well cared for. In today"s world not every elder person has family that is close and able to accept such responsibilities, or perhaps families have such busy schedules that they are unable to provide that support.Providing your loved one with home care can help alleviate some of the stress that come with the responsibility of caring for a family member. Care Managers and Caregivers can help you work through the many different challenges that you face. They will establish a "one-on-one" relationship with you and your loved ones, and act as your advocate. Removing that stress factor often times relieves tension that is related to the task of managing an individual"s care. When a person chooses home care over assisted living it gives them the opportunity to better involve their friends and family with treatment choices."
