5 Reasons Why You Would Want to Hire A Live-In Caregiver

A Caregiver is able to provide skillful care for your loved one who might require additional assistance due to her medical conditions. A Caregiver is not only being able to provide physical and mental relief for the family, she can also help to maintain the quality of life for the seniors. Unlike a domestic maid, a Caregiver provides a higher quality of care for your loved one as she would have had some form of formal training / qualification (such as going through a caregiving course, nursing aide course, diploma or even a degree) and / or experiences in taking care of elderly. In this article, we share 5 reasons why you would want to hire a Live-In Caregiver: ​

​(​1) Better quality care for your loved ones

​A caregiver would have some form of qualification / training and / or experiences in taking care of the elderly, ​she is thus more knowledgeable about your loved one’s medical conditions and needs, and is better able to care for the care recipient. A Caregiver is usually proficient in speaking some languages such as English, Chinese, Malay and/or dialects, resulting in easier and better understanding of your loved one’s pains, needs, and habits. There are Caregivers who have skill sets and experiences in taking care of the elderly with the following conditions: 

  • ​Parkinson
  • ​​Alzheimer
  • Dementia
  • ​Stroke and other Heart Disease
  • Cancer​
  • Palliative

​(2) Provide peace of mind for the family

​Knowing that a trained caregiver is caring for your loved one, you are able to carry on with your work and other commitments with a peace of mind, not having to constantly worry about your loved one. The caregiver helps to alleviate the stress from taking care of your loved one and gives you more time off to take a break after a long day at work.

​(3) Allow your loved one to have a better quality of life

​By engaging a Live-In Caregiver, you allow your loved one to age in the comfort of his / her home while being safe and taken care of. Your loved one is able to carry on with his / her daily activities and routines with an additional pair of helping hands, making the process of ageing more pleasant and joyful.

​A Caregiver is trained in mobility assistance, transferring and positioning of elderly, enabling your loved one to move around with the correct techniques, reducing the chances of accidents or mishaps.

Physical and mental degradation is also common during the aging process which may result in bad hygiene habits that have negative effects on your loved one’s health such as rashes and skin irritations. A Caregiver is able to help ensure that good hygiene is kept.

Conclusion
