In determining an appropriate schedule, it can be helpful to list out all of the things the client (or family) wants to achieve on a weekly basis that may require the caregiver’s assistance. These goals can include exercise, getting out to the clubhouse or to a card game, laundry and linen changes, grocery shopping, and tidying up the house. Add to these items the daily tasks such as dressing, showering, meal prep and walking a dog (if necessary). It is often instructive to add up the time estimated to accomplish these activities when thinking about the number of home health aide service hours to take in a week. One of the best things about homecare services is that the number of hours can change as needs evolve, so families should not overly stress about “getting it right” at the outset.
