private duty versus medicare home health

If you or a family member is in need of assistance with daily living, a caregiver referred by Accountable Home Care is your solution. Our non medical home care solutions are privately paid for by long term care insurance or out of pocket. Care can be provided in a patient’s home or place of residence such as an assisted living facility, skilled nursing and rehabilitation center, group home or independent living retirement community. There is no long term commitment when you retain Accountable Home Care for services.

Personal Care at Home By a Licensed Caregiver

Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) and Home Health Aides (HHAs) are the two types of caregivers Accountable Home Care offers. A large majority of the caregivers live locally from surrounding cities such as Wellington, West Palm Beach, Palm Beach Gardens, Rivera Beach, North Palm Beach and Jupiter. As a licensed nurse registry, the caregivers are independent contractors. The caregivers work for each patient following care instructions provided for by the patient or family member.

What does Activities of Daily Living mean?

Activities of Daily Living and Senior Care

Activities of Daily Living is a term used when discussing care for the elderly or the disabled. Activities of daily living are duties a person needs to do in order to be safe. As we age, care may be required to help a family member or a patient called ADLs. ADLs are referred to as "activities of daily living" which includes bathing, dressing, continence, eating, toileting, and/or transferring.

Using a Long Term Care Policy for Personal Care Services

When a patient opens a claim with a long term care insurance company, care time sheets/notes must reflect activities of daily living as qualifiers. A change in medical condition often times requires a caregiver in a home for an elderly family member. At Accountable Home Care, we offer flexible hours designed to meet your lifestyle. Whether you need daily care or short term respite, Accountable Home Care in Palm Beach Gardens is here for you and your family.

What is considered light housekeeping? I would like to get rid of my housekeeper.

Light housekeeping is designed for a caregiver to maintain the cleanliness and walking path of the area in the home for their patient. Light housekeeping is wiping down the kitchen countertop after preparing a lunch and wiping down the shower door. Light housekeeping does not mean heavy scrubbing, moving furniture or cleaning out cupboards.

Testimonials View All

We retained Accountable during a very emotionally trying period in our mother’s life after she became very ill and could no longer live alone. Accountable provided services to our mother for approximately 1 year. Although it is very difficult to bring a caregiver into the home of a person who has been independent for her entire life, Accountable was very sensitive to our mother’s needs and concerns. They worked with us to find professional, qualified caregivers to care for our mother. We would recommend Accountable to anyone in need of professional, qualified and sensitive caregivers for part-time or full-time care.
