What is Home Care?

Home care is a range of services provided by healthcare professionals and carers that assists individual needs and independence.

As one gets older, living independently can become more difficult. From getting out of bed to getting dressed, daily tasks become harder to achieve.

This can lead to an older adult feeling helpless, lonely and weak. If this is happening to you or your elder, you can consider receiving home care.
