Question 1

When should we arrange stroke recovery care?

Accepted Answer

Ideally, before your loved one comes home. Putting care in place around the time of discharge from the hospital or rehab helps make the transition smoother and safer, since the first weeks at home are when survivors are most vulnerable. That said, it is never too late to add support, and many families bring us in later as needs become clearer.

Question 2

Do your caregivers provide therapy or nursing care?

Accepted Answer

No. We are a non-medical home care provider, so we do not perform physical, occupational, or speech therapy, provide nursing care, or administer medications. Our caregivers help your loved one follow their providers' instructions by assisting with daily living, encouraging prescribed exercises, providing medication reminders, and keeping a safe home environment. We work alongside your medical and therapy team, complementing the care they provide.

Question 3

How can in-home care help prevent another hospital stay?

Accepted Answer

Many readmissions after a stroke come from preventable issues such as falls, missed medications, dehydration, or skipped follow-up appointments. Our caregivers help your loved one move safely, stay on top of medication reminders, eat and drink well, and get to scheduled appointments, while watching for changes and reporting concerns to your family and providers so small problems can be addressed early.

Question 4

How much does stroke recovery care cost?

Accepted Answer

Stroke recovery care is billed at our standard hourly home care rates, and you can start with as few or as many hours as your family needs. Some long-term care insurance policies help cover in-home care, and families using EEOICPA/DEEOIC or VA benefits may also be eligible. Visit our rates page for detailed pricing information.

Question 5

Can we increase or decrease care as our loved one recovers?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Stroke recovery often involves a lot of support early on that gradually decreases as your loved one regains independence. We adjust the schedule and care plan as needs change, with no long-term contracts required, so you only have the care you need when you need it.
