Need someone around the clock? Compare Live-In vs 24-Hour.
They solve the same problem two different ways, and the price difference is big. Play with the days below.
Live-In Care
$450/day flat (includes the $25/day caregiver meal fee). One caregiver lives in the home across multi-day stretches, so your person sees the same face all day. The caregiver sleeps at night but is there if needed. Best when nights are mostly calm.
24-Hour Care
$28–$32/hr in rotating shifts, so someone is awake around the clock. Best when nights aren't calm: wandering, frequent bathroom trips, or care needs that can't wait until morning.
