How Professional Home Care Helps Older Adults Achieve a Higher Quality of Life

Help Choose Home

According to a 2018 AARP survey, 80% of adults over the age of 50 want to remain in their homes and communities as they age. For those in the home care industry, these findings come as no surprise. Home not only represents familiarity, but comfort and security as well. And during the pandemic, home has also been seen as a safe haven for older adults who, due to age and any pre-existing health conditions, are at a higher risk for developing serious complications from COVID-19.

During today’s episode of Help Choose Home, I am joined by Jeff Wiberg, CEO of Family Resource Home Care, which has been serving residents of the Pacific Northwest for 54 years. Jeff has been in the home care field since 2008, and as you’ll learn in our discussion, he is passionately committed to helping people access care at home.

In this episode of Help Choose Home we discuss:

• The wide variety of care available at home
• How professional home care services are paid for
• The value of home care services
• The role of home care agencies in helping to educate families in a variety of care options
