Home Care Senior Survey

Take this test to assess a senior's need for in-home care

The following checklist can help you to decide if the senior you know is capable of living independently and to define his or her needs for in-home eldercare. Also consider how many of the following activities require you to help the senior yourself. In-home senior care doesn't just assist seniors; it brings respite and peace of mind to their families, too.
