Frequently Asked Questions

(1) Do you have any helpful resources for families considering home care?

Yes, the following links provide helpful information as you consider home care:

 

(2) What if my family member doesn't get along well with the caregiver?

If a patient has a specific request for a certain type of caregiver, we will fill that request. If at some point in time the patient comes to dislike his or her caregiver, our director of nursing will assign a different caregiver.

We only hire caregivers who have earnest desires to provide loving care, and we train them further to treat their patients just like they would treat a member of their own family.

 

(3) Is the home caregiver supervised by anyone?

Yes, caregivers are under the supervision of our director of nursing, who oversees the entire Cameo Caregivers staff. Making regular supervisory visits to evaluate patients' needs, making new recommendations if needs change. Other office staff will periodically call to make sure everything is going okay.

Should an emergency arise, our director of nursing, Debbie Floyd, will take care of it as she is ultimately responsible for everything that goes on in the home.  Rest assured that you can reach her 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

 

(4) How much do your home care services cost?

Costs for care depend on the amount and type of care provided. If you call our office (713-682-7272), we can give you an accurate estimate for your situation.

One advantage of care rests in its flexibility. You may just need several hours of care a day, not the 24-hour supervision of a residential facility. With home care, you pay only for the amount of care you actually need, and then receive that care on a one-to-one basis. This flexibility allows you to tailor the health services perfectly to fit your needs and schedule.

As for insurance coverage of care, different policies range in the amount of care covered. Some insurance plans cover full home health care costs, others cover part, and others cover none at all. It all depends on your policy and company. Contact us and we will call your insurance company for you to find out the type of your plan and coverage offered.
