Private Duty Homecare
ComForcare Senior Services provides professional personal care and companionship services allowing our clients to safely remain in their own homes, senior living community or medical facility. Clinical research has revealed that people stay healthier and recover more quickly from illness or surgery in the comfort of their own home. However, today`s busy lifestyles can deprive family and friends of the time and energy required to keep a loved one safely at home. Fortunately, we provide the necessary help to meet all of the daily needs of the home-bound individual.

Service Intake Process Steps
Step 1. In-Home Assessment - Upon the initial phone call, ComForcare`s schedulers will make an appointment at the potential client`s home with our Coordinator to assess the care needed.
Step 2. Assessment - The client`s health and ADLs (activities of daily living) are reviewed to determine the appropriate care plan.
Step 3. Plan of Care and Signing the Agreement - A written care plan is developed that outlines specific services appropriate for the new client, complete with specific instructions. The plan is reviewed with legal guardians or other responsible family members and service agreements are signed for immediate or future service.
Step 4. Caregiver Selection and Orientation - ComForcare`s Caregiver Coordinator will match a caregiver to a client based on skills needed for care, personality and availability. Caregivers are oriented to the client with detailed explanations of special needs and requirements.
Step 5. Monitoring and Review - The Coordinator calls caregivers and clients to monitor care, client condition and provide additional assistance. Regular visits are made to client`s homes to also review the care plan and assess the client and caregiver relationship. Caregivers perform daily documentation of client`s care and special needs and relay special circumstances to the ComForcare Coordinator for discussion with families and guardians.
