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.
