What Is In-Home Elder Care?
In-home elder care is professional, non-medical support provided in your parent's own home by a trained caregiver. Instead of moving to an assisted living facility or nursing home, your loved one can age in place — surrounded by their own memories, belongings, and community.
Services range from a few hours of companion care per week to full-time 24/7 live-in support. Every care plan is built around your parent's unique needs, preferences, and schedule — not a one-size-fits-all approach.
At Shedtronix Healthcare, our caregivers are our W-2 employees — licensed, background-checked, insured, and supervised. We serve families throughout Stamford, Greenwich, Norwalk, Darien, Westport, New Canaan, and Fairfield in Connecticut.
Signs Your Parent May Need In-Home Care
It often starts with small changes. If you're noticing any of these signs, it may be time to explore professional support.
Unexplained Falls or Bruises
Frequent falls, unsteady gait, or bruises they can't explain may indicate they need mobility support.
Missed Medications
Forgetting doses, mixing up pills, or skipping refills can lead to serious health consequences.
Declining Home Condition
Piled-up dishes, spoiled food in the fridge, or an unkempt home may signal they're struggling with daily tasks.
Unexplained Weight Loss
Not eating properly, forgetting meals, or difficulty cooking can lead to malnutrition and weakness.
Social Withdrawal
Pulling away from friends, missing church or clubs, and spending most days alone increases depression risk.
Memory or Confusion Issues
Getting lost in familiar places, repeating questions, or forgetting names of loved ones may indicate cognitive decline.
Recognize any of these? You don't have to figure it out alone.
