In home care services by home health aide UMC HomeWorks NJ Despite concerns over the health and well-being of elderly individuals living alone in their homes, the vast majority would prefer to stay there for as long as they can. In 2010, nearly 90% of adults age 45 and older surveyed by AARP indicated that they wanted to stay in their homes “for as long as possible” as they aged. By 2050, the number of adults age 65 and older will double to 88 million; more than 19 million will be 85 years or older.

In-Home Senior Care in NJ

If you are a senior citizen that could use “a little help” from time to time, HOORAY for you! Recognizing that we all have limitations as we grow older is not something we should fear, but is rather a graceful acceptance of another stage of life with its associated joys and limitations. Your willingness to seek assistance and help does not threaten your independence, it enhances it.   

There are a lot of good reasons to want assistance in your home for as long as you can:

  1. It is a familiar place with meaningful memories of family.
  2. You are familiar with the neighborhood and have friends there.
  3. You don’t need enough daily assistance to require full-time care.
  4. It’s less expensive to live in my home than in an assisted living facility, so I can pass more of my wealth to my children.
  5. You don’t have serious medical issues that need monitoring.
  6. You don’t want to be a burden to your children by relying on them for care.

While many of these are good reasons to stay in your home, there will certainly come a time where the help of children or neighbors won’t be enough. Many proud seniors don’t wish to be an undue burden to their children. They understand that they have busy lives of their own. In these cases, home care services are a great idea.

HomeWorks, through its in-home care, also can fill the gap in the continuum of care and can provide temporary support for residents transitioning home from hospital care, assisted living or nursing homes.
