Service Description
A free in-home care consultation with a care coordinator is one of the best ways to learn about personal care services provided by our compassionate, professional caregivers. Our care coordinators offer no-cost, no-obligation consultations designed to answer your questions and provide expert guidance to help you navigate the senior care decision-making process giving you peace of mind without added pressure. Here are a few things you need to know to help you and your loved one get the most out of your free home care consultation: What is the Purpose of an In-Home Personal Care Consultation? An in-home consultation provides an opportunity to learn about MIMI Cares' services and ask any questions you may have. The consultation helps our care coordinators to get to know you and your loved one and understand any specific care needs. It may also be helpful to think about your senior’s needs, such as what time of day he/she needs assistance and what tasks are the most challenging. You may also want to review financial situations in advance, so you have an idea of how much to budget for in-home personal care. It’s also a good idea to make a list of any questions or concerns and bring the list to the consultation. What Happens During the Consultation? A MIMI Cares’ care coordinator will schedule an in-person meeting with you and your senior in your loved one’s home. Although discussing personal care needs may feel embarrassing for your loved one, you can rest assured our compassionate care coordinators are skilled at putting older adults and family caregivers at ease.
