Questions Regarding In-Home Care Services

What are the signs that a loved one needs home care services?

Is your loved one displaying changes in behavior or appearance? If so, consider discussing in-home care with your family to determine the best, safest decision for everyone involved. Here are some common signs that your loved one could benefit from our services.

Home life changes: Neglecting bills, not throwing away spoiled food in the refrigerator, not shutting off appliances after use, difficulty driving, forgetting to take medications or attend appointments

Physical changes: Trouble balancing, falling, lack of hygiene, sleep disruption, loss of appetite, noticeable weight loss, wearing unclean clothes

Emotional behaviors: Changes in mood, isolation, difficulty communicating, becoming easily confused or frustrated, trouble remembering, difficulty concentrating, impulsivity

If your loved one is showing any of these signs, we recommend reaching out to your family, a home care agency, your loved one’s physician or another professional as soon as possible to help determine the best plan moving forward.

How quickly can home care services start?

The fastest way to receive our services is by requesting a consultation. During the initial consultation, we’ll go over your loved one’s specific needs, review their medical history, discuss any recommended home safety devices and check for fall risks in the home. After the consultation, we will select an experienced caregiver who fits your loved one’s criteria to begin providing care as soon as you need.

Does your home care agency provide 24/7 services?

Yes. Our home care services are available as little or as often as your loved one needs to help them continue to do the things they love. Whether your family needs respite care, help with transitional care or full-time caregiving, ComForCare can help. We’re available 24/7 to answer any of your questions or assist you should an emergency arise.

Does your company provide private-duty nursing care?

Yes. If your loved one needs private-duty nursing services from home, contact ComForCare Home Care (Denver, CO). Our nurses work with clients to ensure they feel independent and comfortable when receiving private-duty nursing services. Our nurses coordinate with the family and any physicians to curate a specific care plan to manage health conditions from home. They also oversee and evaluate caregivers, manage medications, conduct home safety checks and educate the family on self-care and health conditions related to aging.

Our office is DementiaWise®-certified and we extensively train and educate our caregivers to provide research-backed dementia care services in the Denver area. Our caregivers understand how challenging it can be when a loved one develops dementia or another form of Alzheimer’s disease, which is why we provide seniors in the Denver area with effective, Meaningful Activities that support physical and emotional stimulation and care. At ComForCare Home Care Denver, we care like family and provide 24/7 dementia care services, even on holidays, to ensure that your loved one continues to live their best life possible.

At ComForCare Home Care (Denver, CO), we provide a virtual best-in-class learning website to train caregivers and make sure they are up to speed as quickly as possible. We also have a 10-step hiring process and require ongoing training programs and evaluations from all employees.

How do you match caregivers with clients?

Matching the right caregiver with each client is one of our most important duties. We consider personality compatibility, experience level, home care skills needed, the caregiver’s scheduling availability and all client information from the initial home care consultation to find the perfect caregiver for your loved one.

If my caregiver does not work out, can I find a replacement?

Absolutely. If the first match isn’t the right fit, please contact us to find a replacement as soon as possible. Just let us know what is and isn’t currently working, and we will do everything possible to select a new caregiver that meets all of your requirements.
