Frequently Asked Questions

When is the right time to consider home care?

If your loved one is having difficulty managing daily tasks—such as bathing, meal prep,medication reminders, or mobility—it may be time to consider home care. Early support can help maintain independence and prevent bigger issues down the line.

How does home care help with dementia or memory loss?

Home care provides consistent, one-on-one support from trained caregivers who understand the challenges of dementia. They offer reminders, companionship, and structure while promoting safety, patience, and familiarity in a comforting home environment.

What if my loved one refuses help?

It's common for seniors to be hesitant. We encourage starting with a friendly caregiver for companionship or light help. Building trust gradually helps ease resistance and makes the transition smoother for everyone.

How does home care reduce fall risks?

Our caregivers assist with safe movement around the home, monitor for hazards, and provide hands-on support during daily routines. Fall prevention also includes help with showers, transfers, and using mobility aids correctly.

Can we customize the care schedule?

Yes. We offer flexible hours to fit your life—whether it's a few hours a week or full-time care. Care plans are always tailored to what your family truly needs.

Can you help with incontinence or toileting needs?

Yes. Our caregivers are trained to assist with dignity and sensitivity. We provide timely reminders, hands-on support, and maintain a respectful and hygienic routine to ensure comfort and minimize embarrassment.

Do you offer overnight or 24-hour care?

Absolutely. We provide flexible options including overnight, part-time, or full-time care to ensure your loved one is safe, supported, and never alone when it matters most.

Is home care only for seniors?

No-home care can benefit adults of any age recovering from illness, surgery, or managing chronic conditions. It's about support and independence, not just age.

How do you match caregivers with clients?

We carefully consider personality, needs, culture, and experience when selecting a caregiver. Compatibility matters, and we aim for meaningful connections-not just task completion.

What makes Dolce Vita different from other agencies?

We lead with heart. Our care is not just about completing tasks-it's about uplifting quality of life. With deeply trained caregivers, personal attention, and a commitment to grace and dignity, we go beyond the basics to make care truly personal.
