​Types of Care

---

Hourly
​
​Hourly care is available beginning with a minimum of a three hour consecutive shift. Our flexible caregiver hourly rates allow families to use our services as-needed. Many times our patients only need help with a few simple tasks. Whether it’s morning on one day and the afternoon on the other, your care plan is designed around your specific needs and your schedule.

Live-In Care

24 Hour Care or Live-In home care services provide your family with around the clock, full-time care. Our caregivers are present day and night, giving your family affordable 24-hour peace of mind. The client provides separate sleeping quarters for the caregiver along with eight hours of uninterrupted sleeping time, three hours of personal time and meals daily.

Respite Care
​
There is a large number of individuals who balance caring for a loved one and a full time job. Providing care for a family member or spouse in need is rewarding, but it can also be draining. Caregiver stress is a valid concern, and one consistently effective way to cope is by seeking respite care services. Respite Care can be scheduled whenever and for whatever time frame needed.

Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care and Support

​At BlueSky our highly trained caregivers understand the stress and anxiety of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer’s or another form of Dementia.  We understand at times frustration can grow and you feel there is nowhere to turn.  Don’t attempt to handle everything on your own.  Our trained and compassionate caregivers are here to help.

Hospice Care

​Hospice services are for those who have reached a point in a terminal illness where the focus is not on curing the illness but on providing care and comfort  Many people believe home hospices services provide round-the-clock care, unfortunately this is not the case.  Our caregiver services are an excellent addition to home hospice care because we can help take care of the needs that are not within the scope of service for hospice providers.  Our caregivers can help to maintain a high quality of life at the end of life for you or a loved one.

“I have been using BlueSky HomeCare for the last year. They helped me easily and comfortably transition from my old home to my new home in an assisted living facility with a stay at the hospital and a rehabilitation center in between. I don’t think I could have done it without them.”
