1 Clark County Information & Assistance Program In-home services may be appropriate if a person prefers to stay at home but needs assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) or medically necessary tasks prescribed by a health care professional. The aim of home care and home health services is to allow people to remain at home longer rather than enter an assisted living community, nursing home or other type of care home before it is necessary. Agencies often have caregivers who are multilingual to meet their clients needs. Home Care Non-medical in-home care services for people needing with personal care or bathing, meal preparation, housekeeping, shopping and other custodial tasks. Home Health People that need short term medically necessary in-home skilled nursing care that must be authorized by a health care professional. Home Health can include physical therapy, occupational therapy, medication delegation, wound care or giving injections. Hospice Care Hospice care involves a team of professionals and volunteers who provide medical, psychological, and spiritual care to a dying person and his or her family. Hospice care is normally provided in the person s home but is also available in other care settings, including a hospital. Hospice staff are available 24 hours a day to help care for the dying person, ensure he or she is comfortable and free from pain, and provide counseling and support for the person and his or her family. Respite Care Respite care is when another person or facility temporarily takes care of a frail adult so the person caring for them at home can have a break. Respite care can be arranged through the Family Caregiver Support Program (FCSP), home care agencies, adult family homes, assisted living facilities, adult day health or adult day care, nursing facilities, or family, friends, and volunteers. For Additional Information on services, contact the Individually.
