Exploring in-home care options for seniors with VivaValet
Providing independence and support to the local senior community
As the senior population in our community grows, finding reliable and compassionate care options that allow older adults to remain in their homes has become increasingly important.
For many families, in-home care solutions offer a lifeline, promoting independence for seniors while alleviating the caregiving burden on adult children. This need is particularly pronounced in the greater Chicago area, where VivaValet, www.vivavalet.com, is making significant strides in enhancing the well-being of our aging population.
The impact of in-home care on health and costs:
Recent research underscores the financial and health benefits of in-home care for seniors. A study of Medicare Advantage (MA) beneficiaries conducted by a national actuarial firm and commissioned by the companion care company Papa found that in-home companion care reduced overall care costs by nearly 10%. Additionally, it was observed that MA members utilizing in-home care had increased home health utilization while reducing reliance on more costly care options. These findings align with the mission of VivaValet, which aims to deliver similar benefits through its comprehensive suite of nonmedical home care services.
VivaValet’s commitment to senior care
VivaValet, a an emerging leader in nonmedical home care services in the Chicago area, recently announced its strategic partnerships with several in-home senior-care companies. These partnerships underscore VivaValet's commitment to providing personalized and holistic care solutions that prioritize the dignity, respect, and independence of older adults.
Jennifer Cain Birkmose, co-founder of VivaValet, shared her enthusiasm about these partnerships, stating, “At VivaValet, we are passionate about empowering seniors to age in place with dignity and respect. Our collaboration with in-home care companies allows us to expand our reach and provide holistic nonmedical services that prioritize the well-being of our aging population.”
This sentiment is echoed by VivaValet’s in-home care partners, who appreciate the ability to offer comprehensive and personalized care solutions that promote independence and well-being for seniors.
