Live-In Care in New York
What is Live-In Care?
With regards to “Live-In” Care, the home health aide or personal care aide stays/sleeps in the senior client’s home. Live-In caregivers are permitted at least eight to ten hours of rest and sleep. In those hours at night, they are expected to assist their senior client only for quick chores, such as going to the restroom.
Live-In Caregivers must have their own private room in the home.
24-Hour Care is different. For 24-hour care, shift caregivers are expected to remain on full duty for the entire shift, with only one or more quick breaks in between. The most common type of 24-hour care involves three 8-hour shifts in which the caregivers are alert and not sleeping.
