In-home caregiver
Many people nowadays need outside help when it comes to taking care of their elderly loved ones. That’s where in-home caregivers come in. According to the estimations of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, people turning 65 now will most likely require some type of long-term assistance with daily activities during the rest of their lives.
“As long-term care services and support shift from nursing homes and care facilities to private homes, the supply-and-demand gap for at-home care workers will increase,” according to Mike Flair, VP of Franchise Business Solutions.
The staggering number of aging Americans increasing the demand for home health care workers more than for any other home care staff. “By 2026, the fast-expanding home-care population will need 4.2 million more, home-care workers. A direct-care occupation is a highly regarded career opportunity.”
