24-Hour Home Care for Seniors
Quality Senior Care - The Unified Pledge Way!
At Unified Pledge, we recognize that some older adults require round-the-clock monitoring and assistance. They may need 24-hour home care permanently due to age-related decline or chronic illnesses. Other patients need it temporarily as they recover from surgery or while family caregivers take much-needed respite.
Our 24-hour home care service is designed to ensure your elderly loved one is never left alone or unwatched. Our home care staff work on 12-hour rotations, ensuring that caregivers are awake and alert throughout their shift.
Round-the-clock home care is a viable alternative for family members who don’t wish to transition their elderly loved ones to long-term care facilities. Seniors receive professional, compassionate care while staying in their homes, surrounded by familiar things that bring them a sense of comfort and security.
What to Expect from 24-Hour Caregivers
Our 24-hour caregivers provide the same level of support our senior caregivers and home health aides provide. After assessing the patient’s needs, our registered nurses will create a custom care plan which will be carefully implemented by our home care team.
​
Below is a sample of the services our 24-hour caregivers can provide:
-
Physical assistance with functional activities of daily living such as personal hygiene (including bathing, dental care, and grooming), dressing, toileting, continence, eating and ambulating (including assistance with wheelchairs and walkers)
