 Home care and home health care are types of care given to people in the comfort of their own home. These care options make it possible for people, especially seniors to remain in their homes rather than staying in other senior care homes or nursing home facilities. People sometimes get confused between Home care and Home Health Care. The main difference is that Home Care refers to non-medical services provided by caregivers, while Home Health Care is a medical service prescribed by a doctor. In order to better understand the differences between the two, please see the chart below.
