Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our home care services and support.
What services are included in Advent’s non-medical home care?
We provide in-home services that support daily living, such as personal care assistance, bathing and grooming, meal planning and preparation, medication reminders, companionship, and light housekeeping. These services are designed to help seniors and disabled individuals stay safe, independent, and comfortable at home.
How do I start the enrollment process?
Start with a free in-home assessment. An Advent coordinator or nurse will meet with your family to understand needs, preferences, and routines, then we’ll create a customized care plan and schedule. You’ll approve the plan before care begins.
Who are Advent’s caregivers and how are they screened?
All Advent caregivers undergo thorough background checks, reference verification, and interviews. They receive training in daily living support, safety, privacy, and compassionate care, with ongoing supervision to maintain quality.
Are Advent caregivers available on weekends or after hours?
Yes. We offer flexible scheduling, including weekends and some after-hours coverage, based on your care needs and location. Please contact us to discuss your specific timing requirements.
How are care plans created and updated?
Care plans are developed with input from the family and reviewed regularly. We monitor changing needs and adjust tasks, frequencies, and goals to maintain safety and independence at home.
How do you ensure safety and privacy for my loved one?
We prioritize safety through careful caregiver screening, ongoing supervision, and adherence to privacy standards. Caregivers respect independence and personal preferences while protecting confidential information.
How do I know if non-medical home care is right for my family?
If your loved one needs help with daily activities, reminders, companionship, and home safety—but doesn’t require medical procedures at home—non-medical in-home care can be a great fit. We can assess needs during a free in-home evaluation.
