What's the difference between live-in care and hourly 24-hour care?
Live-in caregivers sleep at night and take breaks during the day; hourly caregivers rotate shifts and remain awake the entire time. Live-in care is typically more affordable, while hourly care provides fully awake overnight supervision for clients with higher needs.
Is 24-hour home care covered by Medicare?
No. Medicare does not cover 24-hour or live-in home care because it is considered non-medical assistance. However, many families supplement private funds with long-term care insurance, veterans benefits (Aid and Attendance), or state-based home care programs.
Is 24-hour home care more affordable than a facility?
Yes. While pricing depends on needs, live-in care is typically less expensive than assisted living or nursing home alternatives.
