Personal Care Services

What Is Personal Care?

A couple of popular types of in-home caregiving are personal and companion care. When you plan on hiring an at-home personal caregiver for the older adult in your life, knowing the difference between each type of care can help you discover which kind of care assistance is more suitable for their needs.

The main contrast between personal and companion care is the capacity to assist with activities of daily living (ADLs) and other direct physical support. Personal caregivers are trained and have particular skills to handle immediate physical assistance with clients and manage other caregiver responsibilities.

Alternatively, companion caregivers may assist with light housekeeping, errands and keeping the client company. They are nonmedical, so they can’t provide any direct physical assistance.
