In-Home Care in Lexington, Kentucky
When aging loved ones cannot fully care for themselves, it can lead to tough decisions for their family members and caregivers. Many people believe a nursing home or assisted living community is their only choice, but in-home care from Family Choice Home Care is worth considering.
Reasons to Choose In-Home Senior Care
Eliminating the stress of leaving home and moving to an unfamiliar place is only one of many benefits of in-home care for seniors.
- Seniors who remain at home maintain a sense of independence and autonomy. They will receive as many visits from home health care as necessary while continuing to enjoy hobbies and social activities outside the home.
- Spending senior years in the safety and comfort of home significantly improves a person's mental health, cognitive skills, and memory. Allowing an aging adult to remain in their home can reduce or prevent the onset and severity of Alzheimer's and other types of dementia.
- Residential programs are more expensive than in-home care, which can financially burden seniors and their loved ones. With home care solutions, you pay for the services you need instead of round-the-clock care.
- Quality senior communities are not always close to a person's family, making it difficult for loved ones to participate in a care plan. In-home care allows visitation whenever convenient instead of during set visiting hours.
- In-home care provides one-on-one attention and personalized care unavailable in a group setting. This individualized approach creates a bond between seniors and their caregivers that is often lost in a community setting.
- Seniors can continue to enjoy the companionship of pets by remaining at home. Whether your loved one has fish, birds, or dogs and cats, they will not have to give them up by moving to a retirement community.
Senior Care Solutions We Provide

- We assist with planning and prepping meals and shopping for groceries. We can even cook and clean up after meals.
- Housekeeping and doing laundry can be difficult for those with arthritis or other mobility issues. We'll ensure your loved one has a clean, organized home with easy access to everyday essentials.
- We offer safe, reliable transportation for seniors who no longer drive. From running errands to medical appointments, we can take aging adults anywhere they need to go.
- Grooming and hygiene are essential for the well-being and dignity of every person. Tasks such as showering and dressing can be challenging for seniors with limited mobility or dementia. Our team will aid with these tasks in a respectful way that doesn't diminish a senior's self-image or self-esteem.
- One of the most important things we do for seniors is offer friendship. No matter what age we are, everyone needs social interaction. Looking forward to a visitor can significantly improve a person's day when they may be feeling a bit down or lonely.
