Home health care agencies provide at home nursing and companionship care. Majority of the home care agencies will have a minimum hourly requirement per service and some may also work on a monthly subscription model. Pricing will truly depend on one's individual needs and health conditions, where pricing for help around the home and companionship will be less costly, in comparison to assistance with bathing, medication, dementia care. In choosing the right service provider, ensuring that all staff are knowledgeable and the right security checks are in place (i.e. vulnerable sector checks) is essential.
