How to know when it's time to step in?
Noticing change is not always obvious, but it can be a sign that a loved one may need support.
Ask yourself some basic questions to help guide you.
How do they seem?
Are things as neat and tidy?
How is their hygiene, and how do they look?
Have they lost weight?
Are they becoming more forgetful?
Are they able to complete tasks they once did before?
Have they fallen recently?
A single change may not paint the whole picture, but if you are noticing more changes, it may be time to step in. Searchlight Senior Services offers free in-home assessments, and we are always willing to provide assistance and recommendations -even if it is to refer you elsewhere; we are dedicated to helping you.

Is my home safe, and do I have the equipment they need?

Am I willing to perform these tasks, and am I truly prepared for the many challenges ahead?

Do you accept insurance?
We are a Private Pay in-home senior care business, and we do not accept insurance. However, we understand that finances may be limited, and many times people are on a fixed budget.
There are many resources that can often help to offset the cost of private pay, and we can assist you to navigate those resources. Just call us, we are always willing to help- it’s what we do.

How expensive is private pay, shouldn't I choose Assisted Living instead?
Private Pay care is tailored to the individual, can often be offset by insurance reimbursement, and provides the flexibility to customize the precise care that’s needed. This means that you are not paying for services you don’t need, and you are getting dedicated care on a one-to-one basis.
Unlike Assisted Living and Nursing Home care, Private Pay is designed to be provided only for the hours and services that are needed.
You are not paying for the cost of room, and board and in many cases, you may only need care for specific needs, which can be much more affordable.
