I’d start by looking at how much help the senior actually needs rather than choosing based on price alone. Check whether the home care service can support daily tasks, personal care, medication reminders, mobility, and companionship as needed. It’s also important to ask about caregiver experience, schedules, backup staff, and how they handle changes in care needs. If possible, involve the senior in the decision, because feeling comfortable with the caregiver can make a big difference in their daily routine.
