How does In-home Senior Care in Hext, TX work?

Home is where the heart is. While that saying can sound a tad cliche, it's especially true for many seniors living in America. When given a choice, older adults most often prefer to grow older at home. An AARP study found that three out of four adults over the age of 50 want to stay in their homes and communities as they age. When you begin to think about why, it makes sense. Home offers a sense of security, comfort, and familiarity.

The truth is, as we age, we begin to rely on others for help. When a family is too busy or lives too far away to fulfill this role, in-home senior care is often the best solution. Home care services allow seniors to enjoy personal independence while also receiving trustworthy assistance from a trained caregiver.

At Always Best Care, we offer a comprehensive range of home care services to help seniors stay healthy while they get the help they need to remain independent. As your senior loved one ages, giving them the gift of senior care is one of the best ways to show your love, even if you live far away.

Aging in Place: The Preferred Choice for Most Seniors

While it's true that some seniors have complicated medical needs that prevent them from staying at home, aging in place is often the best arrangement for seniors and their families. With a trusted caregiver, seniors have the opportunity to live with a sense of dignity and do so as they see fit.

In-home care makes it possible for millions of seniors to age in place every year. Rather than moving to a unfamiliar assisted living community, seniors have the chance to stay at home where they feel the happiest and most comfortable.

Here are just a few of the reasons why older men and women prefer to age at home:

Comfort
Comfort

How much does a senior's home truly mean to them? A study published by the American Society on Aging found that more than half of seniors say their home's emotional value means more than how much their home is worth in monetary value. It stands to reason, that a senior's home is where they want to grow old. With the help of elderly care in Hext, TX, seniors don't have to age in a sterilized care facility. Instead, they can age gracefully in the place they want to be most: their home. In contrast, seniors who move to a long-term care facility must adapt to new environments, new people, and new systems that the facility implements. At this stage in life, this kind of drastic change can be more harmful than helpful.

Healthy Living
Healthy Living

Institutional care facilities like nursing homes often put large groups of people together to live in one location. On any given day, dozens of staff members and caregivers run in and out of these facilities. Being around so many new people in a relatively small living environment can be dangerous for a seniors' health and wellbeing. When you consider that thousands of seniors passed away in nursing homes during the COVID-19 pandemic, opting for in-home care is often a safer, healthier choice for seniors. Aging in place has been shown to improve seniors' quality of life, which helps boost physical health and also helps insulate them from viral and bacterial risks found in elderly living facilities.

Independence
Independence

For many seniors, the ability to live independently with assistance from a caregiver is a priceless option. With in-home care, seniors experience a higher level of independence and freedom - much more so than in other settings like an assisted living community. When a senior has the chance to age in place, they get to live life on their own terms, inside the house that they helped make into a home. More independence means more control over their personal lives, too, which leads to increased levels of fulfillment, happiness, and personal gratification. Over time, these positive feelings can manifest into a healthier, longer life.

Cost and Convenience
Cost and Convenience

More independence, a healthier life, and increased comfort are only a few benefits of aging in place. You have to take into consideration the role of cost and convenience. Simply put, it's usually easier to help seniors age in place than it is to move them into an institutional care facility. In-home care services from Always Best Care, for instance, can be less expensive than long-term solutions, which can cost upwards of six figures per year. To make matters worse, many residential care facilities are reluctant to accept long-term care insurance and other types of payment assistance.

With Always Best Care's home care services, seniors and their families have a greater level of control over their care plans. In-home care in Hext, TX gives seniors the chance to form a bond with a trusted caregiver and also receive unmatched care that is catered to their needs. In long-term care facilities, seniors and their loved ones have much less control over their care plan and have less of a say in who provides their care.

Empowers Seniors

Affordable Care Plans

In-home care is a valuable resource that empowers seniors to age in place on their own terms. However, a big concern for many families and their loved ones is how much in-home care costs. If you're worried that in-home care is too expensive, you may be pleasantly surprised to learn that it is one of the most affordable senior care arrangements available.

Typically, hiring an Always Best Care in-home caregiver for a few hours a week is more affordable than sending your loved one to a long-term care facility. This is true even for seniors with more complex care needs.

At Always Best Care, we will work closely with you and your family to develop a Care Plan that not only meets your care needs, but your budget requirements, too. Once we discover the level of care that you or your senior need, we develop an in-home care plan that you can afford.

In addition to our flexible care options, families should also consider the following resources to help offset potential home care costs:

Veteran's Benefits
Veteran's Benefits

Aid and Attendance benefits through military service can cover a portion of the costs associated with in-home care for veterans and their spouses.

Long-Term Care Insurance
Long-Term Care Insurance

Many senior care services like in-home care are included in long-term care insurance options. Research different long-term care solutions to find a plan that provides coverage for senior care.

Private Insurance
Private Insurance

Home care can be included as part of a senior's private insurance plan. Read over your loved one's insurance policy carefully or speak with their insurance provider to determine if in-home care is covered.

Life Insurance
Life Insurance

Depending on the life insurance plan, you may be able to apply your policy toward long-term care. You may be able to use long-term-care coverage to help pay for in-home elderly care.


Respite Care Hext, TX

During your Care Plan consultation with Always Best Care, your Care Coordinator will speak with you about in-home care costs and what options there may be to help meet your budget needs.

Compassionate Care. Trusted Caregivers

When you or your senior loved one needs assistance managing daily tasks at home, finding a qualified caregiver can be challenging. It takes a special kind of person to provide reliable care for your senior loved one. However, a caregiver's role involves more than meal preparation and medication reminders. Many seniors rely on their caregivers for companionship, too.

Our companion care services give seniors the chance to socialize in a safe environment and engage in activities at home. These important efforts boost morale and provide much-needed relief from repetitive daily routines. A one-on-one, engaging conversation can sharpen seniors' minds and give them something in which to be excited.

At Always Best Care, we only hire care providers that we would trust to care for our own loved ones. Our senior caregivers in Hext,TX understand how important it is to listen and communicate with their seniors. A seemingly small interaction, like a short hug goodbye, can make a major difference in a senior's day. Instead of battling against feelings of isolation, seniors begin to look forward to seeing their caregiver each week.

Understanding the nuances of senior care is just one of the reasons why our care providers are so great at their job.

Unlike some senior care companies, our caregivers must undergo extensive training before they work for Always Best Care. In addition, our caregivers receive ongoing training throughout the year. This training ensures that their standard of care matches up to the high standards we've come to expect. During this training, they will brush up on their communication skills, safety awareness, and symptom spotting. That way, your loved one receives the highest level of non-medical home care from day one.

 Caregivers Hext, TX

Taking the First Step with Always Best Care

The first step in getting quality in-home care starts with a personal consultation with an experienced Care Coordinator. This initial consultation is crucial for our team to learn more about you or your elderly loved one to discover the level of care required. Topics of this consultation typically include:

An assessment of your senior loved one

01

An in-depth discussion of the needs of your senior loved one to remain in their own home

02

Reviewing a detailed Care Plan that will meet your senior loved one's needs

03

Our caregivers are trained to spot changes that clients exhibit, like mental and physical decline. As your trusted senior care company, we will constantly assess and update your Care Plan to meet any new emotional, intellectual, physical, and emotional needs.

If you have never considered in-home care before, we understand that you and your family may have concerns about your Care Plan and its Care Coordinator. To help give you peace of mind, know that every team member and caregiver must undergo comprehensive training before being assigned to a Care Plan.

When you're ready, we encourage you to contact your local Always Best Care representative to set up a Care Consultation. Our Care Coordinators would be happy to meet with you in person to get to know you better, discuss your needs, and help put together a personalized Care Plan specific to your needs.

HOUSTON – Houston Christian scored five runs in the sixth inning and built an 11-5 lead through seven innings then held off a late McNeese rally to escape with a 12-10 win and take the Southland Conference baseball series from the Cowboys two-games-to-one.

The loss dropped McNeese's record to 18-10 overall and 2-4 in league play while HCU improved to 5-21 and 3-3. The Cowboys will be back in action this coming Thursday night when it begins a three-game conference series against Texas A&M-Corpus Christi.

McNeese outhit HCU 14-13 as all nine Cowboys in the lineup collected at least one hit.

Center fielder Payton Harden, who was moved back to the No. 1 spot in the batting order, finished 2-for-6 on the day. Left fielder Cooper Hext finished 2-for-5 with two RBIs; right fielder Braden Duhon 2-for-4, and third baseman Taylor Darden 3-for-5 with an RBI.

Cowboy starting pitcher Zach Voss pitched 3.1 innings and gave up three runs on three hits and struckout four batters. Christian Vega, the second of five pitchers for McNeese on the day, was hit with the loss after allowing six runs on four hits in two innings of work.

HCU catcher Dylan LaRue had the hot bat, going 4-for-5 with three RBIs.

The Huskies led 11-5 heading into the eighth inning when McNeese put together a 5-run inning to cut the margin to 11-10.

Duhon began the frame with an infield single then advanced to second on a passed ball. After Chase Keeton reached on a throwing error, Darden singled through the left side to score Duhon and cut the HCU lead to 11-6.

Following a Huskie pitching change and the first out of the inning, Brad Burckel singled in Keeton to make it an 11-7 game. Josh Leslie followed with an RBI single then a Hext single scored Burckel to make it 11-9.

Tré Obregon III hit a sac fly that scored Leslie and Hext stole second to get into scoring position as the tying run, but HCU was able to get out of the inning leading 11-10.

HCU added a run in the bottom of the eighth to lead 12-10 and in the ninth, McNeese put together a two-out rally with Darden hitting a double and Harden an infield single to put runners on the corners, but the Huskies were able to get a lineout to end the game.

Travis Walker had big shoes to fill with the example of his late father Dann, who worked as a minister at a series of churches in California and Oregon, but he has answered that challenge by emphasizing the supremacy of God’s word.

Minister of Billy Hext Road Church of Christ, Walker cites Acts 2:38 and Romans 12:2 to say the Bible tells “about how we can have a relationship with God and the kind of life he wants us to have.

“We look forward to the promise of the life that we can have after this life is over,” said Walker, 49. “Paul told Timothy to preach the word and what I preach is what I see in the word.”

Acts 2:38 says, “And Peter said to them, ‘Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins and you will receive the gift of the Holy Spirit.’”

And Romans 12:2 says, “Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect.”

Born in Salem, Oregon, Walker graduated from high school in Tustin, Calif., and attended Florida College in Temple Terrace before interning with the late Minister Billy Moore at the Fulton Street Church of Christ in Butler, Mo., and earning a certificate in religious studies. He served churches in Dallas, Ore., and Brea, Calif., and preached for nine years at the Clovis, Calif., Church of Christ near Fresno, Calif., before arriving in Odessa four years ago. Walker and his wife Beth have three children. His mother’s name is Michele.

His 3451 Billy Hext Road church’s average attendance, including members who participate on Zoom, is 85-100 at 10 a.m. Sunday.

“One of the greatest commandments is to love our neighbor as we love ourselves,” Walker said. “That comes about by learning, growing and being transformed by the word, which is the fruit of the Holy Spirit. When the word is in our hearts, it’s going to change us.”

Nick Byrd of Fresno, who was a deacon at the Clovis Church of Christ when Walker was there, said he “is a man who walks around with great integrity.

“Our 20-year-old son came down with gastroparesis and then mitochondrial disease seven or eight years ago and Travis has been there consistently,” Byrd said. “He is always praying and trying to help us. He is a man of the Lord.

“His dad was an outstanding Gospel preacher and it can be hard to live up a father’s legacy. One of the things I have always admired is that Travis is never afraid to stand for the truth. He doesn’t back down. Oftentimes preachers preach over your head, but he has a good knack of teaching something complex and making it easy to understand.”
