The length of each HMC HomeCare visit depends on the type of service that is being provided. For example, meal preparation may only take 30 minutes, while bathing, grooming and dressing in the morning may take an hour or two. Each visit is individually tailored to address client's specific needs. Rather than paying for a caregiver to sit around in between tasks, our visits are focused on providing the care needed in the most efficient way.
