Our dedicated caregivers are here to support you with various tasks in the comfort of your own home.
They can assist you with personal care needs like bathing, getting dressed, using the restroom, moving around with a wheelchair or walker, and ensuring your safety. Additionally, they can help with meal preparation, light housekeeping, and running errands for you.
Our caregivers are also trained to provide support with managing medications, helping you stay active through exercises, and accompanying you to medical appointments.
We understand that maintaining independence is important to you, and our services are designed to meet your needs whether you require short-term or long-term assistance due to disability, illness (such as Alzheimer's, Dementia, or Parkinson's), or the natural aging process. You can rely on our caregivers for as little as 5 days a week or choose the option of around-the-clock care, ensuring you have the support you need at any time.
How Can We Help You?
In terms of our service charges, we have a one-time-only fee that covers the process of matching you with a caregiver. This fee is equivalent to two weeks of the caregiver's salary and is paid after the initial two-week trial period. This trial period allows you to assess the compatibility between the caregiver and your loved one before making a longer-term commitment. Additionally, if for any reason you and the caregiver part ways within the first three months, we will provide a replacement caregiver at no additional charge.
What is the fee for our service?
The rates for the homecare service are determined based on the specific requirements of the job. The conversations and agreement about the rate happen directly between the customer/employer and the caregiver/employee. Fairy Homecare does not participate in rate negotiations.
As an industry-standard, for live-in care, the average rates start at approximately $250 per day. If you prefer live-out care, the hourly rate starts at around $25 per hour (daytime or nighttime rates may vary based on the number of hours and services needed).
What are the rates for the caregiver services?
-
Familiar and Comfortable Environment: With an in-home caregiver, you or your loved one can remain in the familiar and comfortable surroundings of home. This environment often promotes a sense of security and well-being, helping to maintain emotional and mental health.
-
Personalized and One-on-One Care: In-home caregivers provide personalized care tailored to your specific needs. They can focus solely on you or your loved one, offering individualized attention and a higher caregiver-to-patient ratio compared to a nursing home.
-
Independence and Control: By opting for in-home care, you or your loved one can maintain independence and control over daily routines and decisions. In-home caregivers assist with tasks while encouraging self-sufficiency and preserving dignity.
-
Flexibility and Customized Care: In-home care allows for flexible scheduling and personalized care plans. Caregivers adapt to your routines, preferences, and changing needs, ensuring that you receive the level of assistance required without rigid schedules.

Emotional Support and Companionship: In-home caregivers not only assist with physical tasks but also provide emotional support and companionship. They build relationships, offer conversation, and engage in activities that promote social interaction and mental stimulation.

Cost-Effective: In-home care can be a cost-effective option compared to nursing homes. Depending on the level of care required, in-home care can be more affordable while still providing high-quality support.

Reduced Risk of Infections: Nursing homes can be susceptible to infectious diseases due to shared living spaces and a larger number of residents. With in-home care, the risk of exposure to infections is minimized, offering a safer environment for you or your loved one.

Individualized Attention to Health: In-home caregivers can focus on your specific health needs, including medication management, therapy exercises, and assistance with doctor appointments. They can closely monitor your health and communicate with healthcare professionals effectively.
It's important to consider individual circumstances and needs when making a decision. Consulting with healthcare professionals, discussing options with family members, and evaluating the level of care required will help you make an informed choice that best suits your situation.
