How Much Does 24/7 In-Home Care Cost Per Month

Finding the right care for a loved one is a deeply personal decision, and one of the most pressing concerns for families considering in-home care is the cost, especially for round-the-clock services. 24/7 care ensures continuous support and monitoring, making it essential for those with chronic health issues or advanced age-related conditions. This article explores the typical costs associated with 24/7 in-home care, particularly in regions like San Francisco, Marin, and Sonoma County, and explains how Kizuna, a platform that connects families with caregivers, offers unique benefits to help families manage these costs effectively.

Understanding 24/7 In-Home Care

24/7 in-home care involves having a caregiver or a team of caregivers available around the clock. This type of care is often necessary for individuals who require assistance with daily living activities, medication management, or specialized medical attention due to conditions like dementia or post-surgery recovery. Caregivers usually work in shifts, ensuring that the individual always has someone by their side. Unlike nursing homes, this arrangement allows for personalized care within the comfort of the individual’s home, preserving their independence and familiarity with their surroundings.

These kinds of caregivers are also called PCAs — Personal care assistants.

How Much Does 24/7 In-Home Care Cost Per Month and Factors Affecting the Cost

The cost of 24/7 in-home care can vary widely based on several factors. On average, families in the U.S. can expect to pay anywhere between $10,000 and $20,000 per month for this level of care. However, in regions like San Francisco, Marin, and Sonoma County, where the cost of living is higher, these figures may increase. Families in these areas could see monthly costs exceeding $20,000 depending on the care required.

Here are some key factors that impact the pricing:

Location

Geography plays a major role in pricing. In high-cost areas like San Francisco and surrounding counties, 24/7 in-home care is often more expensive due to higher wages and living expenses. For example, in San Francisco, Marin, and Sonoma County, it’s not uncommon to see higher rates than in more rural or less densely populated areas.

Level of Care Needed

The complexity of the care required also significantly affects pricing. Basic assistance, such as help with personal hygiene, meal preparation, and companionship, is generally less expensive than medical care, such as managing severe dementia or providing post-operative care. Specialized medical support usually requires certified caregivers or nursing professionals, which can increase the overall cost.

FAQs

How does 24/7 care differ from part-time care in Marin and Sonoma counties?

Part-time care typically involves caregivers assisting for a few hours per day or week, helping with specific tasks like meal prep or companionship. In contrast, 24/7 care in Marin and Sonoma counties ensures that a caregiver is available at all times, day and night, to manage complex needs, provide medical assistance, or respond to emergencies.

Is it better to hire caregivers through an agency or independently?

Hiring caregivers through an agency often provides added benefits like background checks and insurance coverage, but it can be more expensive. Independent caregivers might offer more affordable rates, but you may need to handle more responsibilities, such as payroll and insurance.

With Kizuna, families get the best of both worlds. Kizuna provides the security and peace of mind that comes from thoroughly vetted caregivers, including background checks and verified credentials, without the high fees often associated with traditional agencies. Plus, you can review caregiver profiles and pricing transparently, allowing you to make an informed decision that fits your needs and budget.

Can Kizuna caregivers provide specialized care, like dementia support, in San Francisco?

Yes, Kizuna offers caregivers with specialized skills, including dementia support, post-surgery recovery assistance, and more. In areas like San Francisco, where the demand for specialized in-home care is high, families can find caregivers experienced in handling complex medical conditions through the Kizuna platform.

Talk about your workouts?

I'm kinda in the same boat about maybe never gonna be able to start T and I've been thinking about working out to help with the gender. But I have no idea where to start or what to do. I haven't exercised since like middle school pe...

thanks for reaching out! im no professional trainer but ive worked out episodically through my life and have a bit of biology knowledge to guide you with!

If you havent worked out in a while, its best to start with mobility exercises. They will prevent your joints from hurting badly if/when you start with strenous exercise like weight training. I recommend the youtube channels Hybrid Calisthenics and Squat University for those, they are quite cool and not condescending at all.

Once you feel more confident in your mobility, you MUST do mild cardio to improve your resistence. You can achieve this by walking uphill 10-20 minutes a day at a pace where you dont lose your breath. There are a lot of cardio videos in youtube but i dont recommend them at your stage since going above 130 ppm without previous training may be dangerous.

You know how some cis women refuse to train the chest cuz they are afraid their boobs will decrease in size? This (sadly) doesnt happen. Localized fat burn has not been proved. You can reduce breast size (if thats your objective) via generalized fat loss, which is achieved thru a mixture of exercise and (fuck!!!) calorie deficit. Dont give up on your chest tho, you can still sculpt it!!

That being said, you can still build a more masculine shape by training your upper body!! Swimming is a (very fun!!) exercise that trains your whole body but also builds back, shoulders, chest and core very efficiently.

Finally, if you start feeling lightheaded at any moment, SLOW DOWN AND DONT STOP ABRUPTLY. Take care of your beautiful brain and heart.

Im a firm believer that everyone should work out if theyre able to and have fun while doing it!! I hope this helps and i wish you a beautiful journey

hello people trapped in the bowels of my computer! my medication has been switched, and i have an interview for inhome care in a week. things have been generally trending positive. im stressed but way less so than about a month ago. we're getting closer to the point where i need to be.

[abrahamshipwreck]

Im trying so hard to find distractions but I just cant be fucked to. Ive cried more the last week than I have in probably years. I feel physically like crap and now I dont even care.

We have a number for inhome euthanasia if it comes to that. Mom is already talking about getting another cat after him and I cant even fucking imagine that. I cleaned his litterbox today and used the last of the litter and liners I had and broke down knowing I probably wont have to get more. I hate this. I feel like a ghost in my own body. Im scared to let him out of my sight. I dont care about anything.

I can only feel sad or worried.

Husbands' words are not matching actions and vice versa. Hes been "venting" to "me" in front of our oldest (turning 16 may 10) on our "current" marriage?....problem(s).

I tried my best to keep my mouth shut and one time he asked me to play a song so I for one am so plugged up i cant really hear much, sometimes even music is too loud (sensory processing disorder) and I guess i didnt even hear him say something and the child caught on to what was happening and said "you're ignoring dad again"

So i spoke to her instead of him since she said it, & I said "I didnt ignore him. I didnt hear him. I was hyper focused on the song he requested me to play."

And then he went on just one of many other rants in front of her, asking "you dont think I ever hyper focus on anything? When Im home on my days off, I feel like im your servant" All day anytime I asked for help, to him I was demanding it and not appreciating stuff he did and then he would not stop talking about every single thing he did today around the house and for our children and its like.... ok cool.

And people get paid to do what i do here at home, every single day all day long. Didn't say it would be easy, however I did ask for help. He tried to say he understands im frustrated bcuz im home all day and i guess i interrupted and was rude bcuz i said "Its not THAT, at all" (cuz its...not?) Lastly i stumbled upon his fave song & started playing it & asked him to plz get me my night meds bcuz I am so fucking cold to the touch, esp to others. And moving makes it hurt.:// He said "You can just not play the song now. Thanks." So uhh.. Like all I am learning here is 1) I need to stop asking him to help me w/ literally anything and like he has said in the past which I clearly shouldve listened to: "If you (*me doing this: "cough" "cough") WANT something RIGHT NOW!, I'll have to get up and get it myself or wait until I he is ready to do it." And 2) I've been right all along. I cant count on even my own Husband so like uhh.... okay. And Now to him, I'm just a burden. Let alone ya know, i guess having influenza and not doing shit around the house "today" (literally just today, and actually, i still did some stuff which is better than none lol) and hes acting like he deserves a fucking gold medal. For what? Being a husband a father and taking responsibility of everything whilst your wife is ill? K. Never asking you for shit now. Ill send lists to him at work if the house needs anything. He hasnt had sex from me in a month because for the past 2 months steady, I have been sick with an upper respiratory virus affecting my asthma and everything else and now this so uhh, my bad. Next time I'll just faint (again) & hit my head probably (again) and then maybe, theyll see that hes just gonna send me by myself and come pick me up when Im done being in there because he has to sleep for work tomorrow. Not to ya know, dare mention that if the bulging disc in my spine "RUPTURES", all signs & symptoms of paralysis will hit fast & clearly that would become a huge Emergency Situation... So I was "told to do it anyway" by him even after explaining the deck was covered in thick broken shattered ice chunks and with my slip on shoes that are the only shoes i can wear, I told him "I'm not doing that" and now it's my fault it was left outside until when he came home (3 1/2 hours before home). I feel as if my health is a major burden to him and maybe its time for me to get an inhome nurse... Some people just arent built to take care of anyone else. And maybe idk, maybe he is starting to see that I a really honestly, not in love with him at this point anymore. Maybe tomorrow or next month or next whatever, or maybe never will I be back in love with him.It seemed to me like the exact day that he was hired on as a manager at his workplace, things shifted. He dropped a huge bomb on me. I had to then last night, inform my family that I'm doing gene testing to see if i am a carrier of a breast cancer gene for reasons. They're also testing for thyroid & ovarian seeing as those run heavily. My chances before gene testing was uncomfortable to talk to our 3 kids about but they were as accepting as they can be, as their Mother my main priority should be my health so that Incan get better so that I can continue to do what I freaking LOVE DOING SO MUCH!!!!!! Like I truly do so why continually, continually say outloud in front of the 3 kids that "well I've done all of this and all of this because you asked for help" and it all started over me asking him if he can take lily her cup of water since shes coughing so badly. My flu/asthma/sinus shit is awful and my heart problem make it hard for me to walk sometimes let alone climb stairs.... He's acting like he deserves a gold medal when im always keeping the house up and im not doing that. What im doing is showing him what all i have to do during the day, some updates on what i dod and whatever else i wanna send.

I told him that its unfair to us completely that he doesnt turn off "Manager" when he walks through the door. He had a conversation to me and said hes not gonna be able to shut that off when he comes home and he has to take on so much responsibilities and he feels like he needs to be inside the house alone without myself or the kids or the pets for like half a year to get his straight. Bruh. Like no. Just do better. Idk how many people told me that Id never do this and id never do that and here i am proving them wrong every single day.

But every time he speaks to me like this, I am taken back to a time where I was told "your mother never should've made you." At i think 4-5 years old? I am disabled for many reasons. And I can tell everyone all the time until I'm fucking blue in my own face that, when I say that I cant do something and I ask for help, the help is met with a "your legs work" or "you're capable. You just dont wanna wait" No duh. Thats why i said "now please". Would you rather I give you another reason to hit me 3x flat-cupped handed times on my face again and say that "If I wanted it right now and could have gotten it right now for myself"

Im tired of asking for help and being treated like nothing other than a burden and his biggest fucking problem. How was I supposed to know that I was going to this sick on your 2 days off and that every time I asked for anything, you were upset.

I guess i was right and I'm just a different person now because of trauma processing and healing. But being sick enough to make 4 separate appointments during the 2 month span and if this gets worse, this one too. So I feel like he wants me to say something to him or do something for him, but all Im getting from this is "do not ask me for anything". Isnt your spouse supposed to be the one taking care of you when youre sick? Hes already lost me emotionally. And right before our ten year wedding annivarsary. Cool.

Find Expert Skilled In Home Nursing Care on Kizuna - Kizuna

“Home is where healing happens best, and compassionate in home care makes that possible.”

Why In Home Nursing Care Matters?

The Growing Need for Home-Based Care

The benefits of skilled in home nursing care go beyond simple medical assistance. Home care allows elderly individuals or those with chronic conditions to receive care in a familiar setting, which can significantly improve their emotional well-being. According to the AARP, nearly 90% of older adults wish to age in place, highlighting the critical need for accessible, home-based healthcare options.

“Most older adults want to remain in their homes as long as possible, and this desire has only intensified over recent years.” — AARP Public Policy Institute

Supporting Families and Individuals with Specialized Care

Skilled in home nursing care helps address both physical and mental health needs. Studies show that patients receiving home-based care experience fewer hospital visits and higher satisfaction rates than those in institutional settings. For many families, finding skilled caregivers trained in mobility support, medication management, or specialized needs like dementia care is essential. This is where Kizuna steps in, offering access to various caregivers with verified skills and experience.

Challenges of Finding Skilled In Home Nursing Care

Limited Availability of Qualified Caregivers

With a projected shortage of 151,000 caregivers by 2030, finding a skilled inhome caregiver can be daunting. Many families face long waitlists, high costs, or difficulty verifying caregivers’ backgrounds. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, home health and personal care aide employment is projected to grow 25% from 2021 to 2031 — far faster than the average for other occupations — indicating high demand but limited supply in the industry.

Ensuring Trust and Compatibility

It’s not just about finding someone with the right skills; it’s about finding a caregiver who fits well with the family’s needs and values. A recent study found that 75% of families consider “compatibility and personality match” one of the top three factors in choosing a caregiver. But assessing these qualities without meeting caregivers in person can be challenging.

“The bond between caregivers and patients is often as important as their skills. The right match can lead to more effective, compassionate care that positively impacts quality of life.” — Donna Benton, Director, USC Family Caregiver Support Center

With over 73 million Baby Boomers aging, the demand for skilled in home nursing care is expected to grow by 54% by 2030. Research further highlights that elderly patients receiving in home nursing care report a 30% lower rate of hospitalization compared to those in nursing homes, underscoring the role of in home nursing in enhancing quality of life. Additionally, families using skilled in home nursing care save an average of $1,500 monthly compared to those opting for assisted living facilities.

How Kizuna Makes Finding Skilled In Home Nursing Care Easier

Access to Verified Caregivers

Kizuna’s platform allows families to search from a curated list of caregivers who have undergone extensive background checks and skills verification. With a range of options, families can find caregivers with specific expertise, such as Certified Nursing Assistants (CNAs) to meet various levels of in home nursing care needs.

Personalized Care Matching

Kizuna makes it easy for families to compare qualifications, experience, and availability by providing detailed caregiver profiles. This transparency in caregiver profiles helps families feel confident that they’re making the right choice, allowing for a more personalized experience. Kizuna also provides direct support through care coordinators who guide families through the selection process.

“Navigating caregiving is not easy for families. Having dedicated coordinators can alleviate stress and ensure the best outcomes, allowing families to feel supported at every step.” — Jennifer Olsen, CEO, Rosalynn Carter Institute for Caregivers

Flexible and Transparent Cost Options

One of the most common concerns with in home care is the cost. Studies indicate that the median cost of in home care in the U.S. is around $4,500 per month, a significant financial commitment for many families. Kizuna offers flexibility, allowing families to select care based on hourly, daily, or long-term needs, providing more control over expenses while ensuring transparency with no hidden fees.

“While home care is an investment, families typically see a 30% savings compared to other care options like assisted living, making it an attractive option for those seeking quality, affordable care at home.” — National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC)

What Sets Kizuna Apart?

Industry-leading screening and Background Checks

According to the Home Care Association of America, over 50% of families worry about the qualifications and trustworthiness of caregivers. Kizuna addresses this with its rigorous vetting process. Every caregiver on Kizuna’s platform goes through a multi-step verification process, including background checks and skill assessments, aligning with industry standards for safe and trusted caregiving.

Less than 10% of caregivers who apply to Kizuna make it onto the platform.

Higher Earnings for Caregivers, Higher Motivation for Care

Kizuna’s model is unique in that it focuses on caregiver satisfaction as a core part of its mission. Studies show that caregivers who are well-compensated tend to provide better quality care and report higher job satisfaction, leading to lower turnover. Caregivers keep everything they earn on Kizuna. We want to avoid any impression that we set rates, which we don’t, since we’re not the employer.

The family and caregiver negotiate the rate, Kizuna supports caregivers, which translates to a more motivated, reliable workforce for families seeking in-home nursing care.

“Research shows that patients receiving care in their homes have better health outcomes, report higher levels of satisfaction, and have lower hospitalization rates compared to those in institutional settings.” — Dr. Bruce Leff, Professor of Medicine, Johns Hopkins University

Dedicated Care Support

A standout feature on Kizuna’s platform is the dedicated care coordinators who are available to help families at every step of the process.

“In a survey by the Family Caregiver Alliance, nearly 40% of caregivers said they lacked adequate support and resources. Kizuna fills this gap by providing a dedicated support team that not only helps families select caregivers but also addresses any concerns during the caregiving journey.”

Finding the right skilled in-home nursing care is about more than just healthcare — it’s about trust, compatibility, and ongoing support. With platforms like Kizuna, families gain access to a streamlined way to find verified, skilled caregivers who not only bring expertise but also a genuine commitment to compassionate care. By focusing on caregiver satisfaction, transparency, and dedicated support, Kizuna offers families the confidence and convenience they need to navigate the world of skilled in home nursing care.

For anyone seeking reliable, personalized, and transparent home care solutions, Kizuna serves as a valuable partner, offering peace of mind and the assurance of quality care.

Kizuna is dedicated to improving the quality of care in our local community. For those in Marin or Sonoma County, more caregiving resources can be found on this local guide and these helpful links.

Many people prefer to receive their care in the comfort of their own home. However, this may not be possible for everyone. This is where The CareSide offers high quality home care services in Sydney. Using the NDIS, individuals with a disability can receive support from a team of dedicated support workers who can give them the choice and flexibility they need to continue to live their lives as independently as possible.

Caspian Care

For those that need some extra assistance or want to remain at home for the foreseeable future, there are several options available to them. One of the best options is to use a company like Home Care Assistance Sydney City and East to help you out. They offer some of the most reputable home care services in the country and can help you with your specific needs. A free in-home assessment is also available. This is a great way to get started on the right foot. Luckily, their team of caring professionals are able to cater to any individual's needs, from personal care to light housekeeping.

Global Disability and Health Care Services

Global Disability and Health Care Services (GDHCS) is a disability-focused health and social service provider. The organisation provides a range of services, from Registered Nurses and support workers to specialist mental health, disability and nursing care services. A specialist service, GDHCS has been operating in the greater Sydney area for 18 years. It is NDIS registered.

Approximately one billion people worldwide are living with some form of disability. These individuals are often marginalized and face discrimination, as well as a lack of access to mainstream health care. In order to help address these issues, Global Disability and Health Care Services focus on promoting person-centered supports to help them reach their full potential.

Prestige Inhome Care

The Prestige Inhome Care company has been in the business of providing quality in-home care services to seniors and their families for over 20 years. Their services include home health aides, respite and end of life care, companionship and more. They offer a wide array of care services ranging from one hour per day to 24 hour a day care.

They are also the first in the country to offer a Home Care Package, which is a subsidised plan designed to help older Australians with the costs of everyday activities such as shopping and socialising. While they do all the usuals, their unique approach to caring for older people is sure to delight them and their customers.

ADACare

ADACare is an acronym for Australian Disability and Aged Care Support Services. One of the many benefits is its concierge level of service. Aside from delivering services, they also help clients with socialisation, medical and other day to day needs and desires. This is all the more important since a majority of clients are on the brink of death. The best part is they do it all for a fee. The cost of their services can be as low as one hundred dollars. They are also more than happy to provide referrals to other providers should one or more require a shuffle. In short, they are the best of the best.

Work was such a shit show

My shoulder is absolutely killing me.

Things were fine till about 5 pm. My client started refusing to use the gait belt completely and became combative. She said to just hold me which I called my work and they said okay. So she starts to refuse her gait belt more frequently and stops wanting to use her walker and I told her you cant stop using your walker and she got pissed off and yelled at me (oh well)

dinner time happened and my client started complaining about the oxygen concentrator being too loud and the daughter is like lets move it. And all of my knowledge Ive always been told not to move the concentrator like they will move it throughout the house daily and I was always told to keep it in one spot.

Then the daughter gets sassy with me and says that “well she needs to go on walks outside” and Im like seriously? She can barely make it to the bathroom without panting and wanting to flop on the toilet PLUS there’s nothing for her to sit on if she needed a break outside like shes so dumb she literally thinks she knows more than I do because she’s older but Ive been doing this nearly 4 years I know what is safe and what isnt. I know what to do. Just because im 21 and young doesnt mean I am not knowledgeable

. Ive been working my ass off at your mothers house dealing with elder abuse from you guys that I keep reporting and no one giving a shit. I cant go a single day without reporting something to my work. Its rediculous.
