In-Home Care Overview: ABRA Cares

ABRA ……Cares

CARE FOR YOUR LOVED ONES

When you need help at home with family members, let ABRA assist!
ABRA specializes in helping your family members stay healthy at home.

Many seniors can benefit directly from in-home care. Cost savings, self-directed care, the comfort of a familiar environment, and prevention of medical emergencies are just some of in-home care’s advantages.

Independence…comfort of a familiar environment and keeping your support circle

Staying at home allows you to keep your support circle, be that your family, friends, or pets. Socialization is one of the most important considerations for a long life. With the assistance of your caregiver, you can still enjoy time with your friends, family and pets. You will still be able to still attend your church, visit your doctor, and shop at your favorite places. Research has shown that folks that age in their homes tend to live longer than those that live in a facility. In addition, those who stay at home tend to be physically and mentally healthier compared to the resident of facilities.

Cost Efficient…self-directed care can save money over facilities costs

In-home care is care when you need it, as you need it, be it 2 hours or 24 hours. You only pay for what you need. You schedule the time needed. In some cases, you can substitute in home care for other more expensive forms of care including hospitals and rehab facilities.

One-on-One……. personalized caregiving on your schedule

In-home care provides one-on-one personal care on a schedule designed by you. You direct care as you employ the caregiver directly, the true meaning of “consumer directed care”. You get to pick the caregiver you want. The caregiver will do an initial meet and greet with you so you can see who you are hiring in most cases. You pick your meals, not a facility.

Especially for rehab patients, the one-on-one personal care can be very important. Abra’s services also can include one on one assistance in facilities where there are not enough staff to service your needs.

Involvement…. family and friends can be involved in care

Family members can be more intimately involved with their family member’s care at home—helping to administer medications, working with the family member on physical therapy and coaching them on their recovery.

Prevention…… avoid medical emergencies and have reduced hospital/rehab time

Research has shown that having in home care helps prevent hospital visits. Have someone help your family member before they take that nasty fall or take the wrong medications.

If you have that hospital stay, research shows that recovery can be faster with familiar surroundings. A familiar environment aids in healing both physically and mentally. Additionally, chances of re-hospitalization are lowered when recuperation is at home.

Please contact us for more information and we'll work with you to develop a home care solution that meets your needs.

They have great care workers at ABRA Cares. The payment process could be improved.

Just a quick note regarding mom. We are very satisfied with Abra and the services you provide. Again I want to thank you for all your efforts on our behalf to get our long-term health care to finally begin paying. It is appreciated so much. Mom has been home for just over a year and the care has been fantastic. As I said before, we absolutely adore Serena and she is so conscientious and caring and a very, very sweet person.

ABRA Cares was very professional. They were on time and helped us through the process. We tried two caregivers but are still looking for the right fit.

ABRA Cares caregivers were not only a big comfort to my dad but supportive for mom as well. Additionally, they helped me with the long term care insurance paperwork. I'm so thankful for their help with my dad as we tried to give him as much comfort as possible before he passed.

Linda, I am a past client
I am very much appreciative of ABRA Cares and their caregivers. Especially, their ability to connect with my mom and how comfortable our caregiver, Pat, made my mother feel in the last days of her life. It is that kind of relationship between caregiver and client that we sought.

ABRA Care's caregivers brought my health back to where I am today. I had just been released from a rehab facility after surgery and they provided 24 hour care to start and gradually reduced my care as I improved.
