What is custodial care?

Understanding the Meaning of Custodial Care in a Home Setting

When using a long term care policy, custodial care means non-skilled long term care services. Assistance with daily living such as transfer assistance, bathing and feeding are just a few example of non medical custodial care.

Do I need a prescription from my doctor in order to hire a caregiver for personal care at home?

Hiring a licensed caregiver to provide non-medical home care in the home does not require a prescription from a doctor. Often times a physician will write a prescription for a home health aide to assist in conjunction with other services requiring a prescription such as Medicare Home Health Services. Medicare Home Health requires a prescription from a physician.

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.
