When living alone is no longer an option and assisted living is not where you want to be, a live-in certified home health may be the answer to your prayers. Typical duties of a live-in caregiver includes meal planning and preparation, assistance with personal grooming, dressing, toileting, laundry, light housekeeping, and escorting patients to doctor's appointments or social engagements.
