FCP Live-In Helps Linda Crosby's Husband Return Home

FCP Live-In Care Coordinator Eric Rosenberger received a call over a year ago from a social worker at SeniorCare, a nonprofit organization in Gloucester, Massachusetts, that provides and coordinates services to seniors.

The social worker wanted to know if FCP Live-In could help Linda Crosby, whose husband, David, was about to be released from the hospital. Eric contacted Linda to get more information about the type of care David would need once he returned home.

Being a leading live-in home caregiver provider, FCP Live-In is often contacted by social workers from rehabilitation centers, nursing homes, and organizations like SeniorCare on behalf of seniors who need immediate caregiving services.

"We work with many groups that have the same goal as FCP Live-In, which is to provide services that enable seniors to live independently at home or in a setting of their choice," Eric said. "It's important for older adults to remain part of their community, and FCP Live-In provides live-in caregivers, for seniors to do this."

Linda Crosby is thankful for FCP Live-In's immediate response by assigning Felicity, the live-in caregiver who has been helping David since October 2020.

"FCP stepped in quickly, as we were unprepared for the rapid decline in his condition," Linda said. "My husband has benefitted so much by the relationship he has with Felicity—such a difference from a parade of multiple caregivers, covering three shifts each day. Her knowledge of the progression of his disease is critical as we take the next steps in his care."

Unlike assisted living facilities where staff work in shifts and are assigned to multiple residents each day, FCP Live-In caregivers live with their clients and provide one-on-one care. So, FCP Live-In clients do not have to wait to get assistance, like residents do in assisted living facilities. The agency's clients get what they need when they need it.

And, it's not just assisted living facilities where seniors have to wait for care. Older adults have to wait for assistance even if they have personal care aides who come to their homes two or three times a week.

FCP Live-In CEO David Anthony, who founded FCP Live-In in 1997, saw the predicament that seniors were in and came up with a unique approach to care.

"FCP Live-In is about caring for people," David said. "I founded this company because the options are limited when it comes to caring for a loved one. Right now, you either have a home health aide who comes to the home for a few hours, or a loved one needs to go into an assisted living facility. But what if you take the best of both? An insured and bonded live-in caregiver that provides 1-on-1 care stays in the home and is there 24/7. That's where FCP Live-In comes in."

FCP Live-In Customizes Care

FCP Live-In is not an assisted living facility but an affordable live-in home caregiver provider. For the past 24 years, the company has provided 1-on-1 care with live-in caregivers for clients all over New England. FCP Live-In customizes care to meet the needs of seniors and provides a lifestyle that offers enjoyment and peace of mind to clients and their families.

All FCP Live-In caregivers are nurse's aides, home health aides, and personal care aides with at least two years of professional experience. The company's caregivers go through full state and federal background checks, and all are bonded and insured. What's more, FCP Live-In uses advanced technology to determine the best caregiver-to-client match based on client care needs and best-suited personality chemistry.

The right fit between client and live-in caregiver is essential because seniors have different health needs, so FCP Live-In offers various services, such as incontinence care, heart disease/stroke care, diabetes care, and cerebral palsy care. Live-in caregivers also provide compassionate palliative care, hospice care, and end-of-life care.

In her more than two decades of helping families all over New England, FCP Live-In's Regional Sales Manager Andrea Maroto said one of the biggest challenges families have is finding in-home care and support for their loved ones with Alzheimer's disease or other types of dementia. FCP Live-In is there for them.

"FCP Live-In offers assistance with a sense of security and comfort in the ease of your home without having to move into a nursing home or assisted living facility," Maroto said. "I often think about how wonderful it is for seniors to stay home and get the care they deserve and need while not losing what is most important to them: Their family, friends, and the special place they call home."

Live-in caregivers provide assistance with daily living activities, such as dressing, bathing, grooming, toileting, and other personal care services. Caregivers also do light housekeeping chores, such as laundry, cooking nutritious meals, making beds, grocery shopping, and running errands. Also important is the companionship caregivers provide to seniors, some of whom may live alone.

"I am excited to be a part of such a wonderful and needed service to help our seniors maintain their independence in the comfort of their own home," Maroto said.

FCP Live-In Responsive To Clients' Changing Needs

All FCP Live-In staff work together to form a 24/7 professional support system for live-in caregivers, clients, and their families. So, when a client's need changes, FCP Live-In staff and caregivers work hard to ensure that additional supports are available as soon as possible.

This happened recently when Linda contacted Eric about David needing more assistance. Eric assessed the Crosby's increasing needs and put more help in place.
