Parkinson's brings new challenges every day — tremors, balance problems, freezing episodes, fatigue. Our caregivers are trained to keep your loved one safe, comfortable, and at home, while giving you genuine peace of mind.
Each care plan is built around your loved one's current symptoms, daily routine, and what matters most to them. Parkinson's is unpredictable — our caregivers are trained to adapt with it.
Assisting with transfers (chair, bed, bathroom), walking alongside for balance support, clearing fall hazards, and staying alert to freezing episodes — the leading cause of Parkinson's-related injury.
Parkinson's medications must be taken on a strict, precise schedule to control symptoms. Caregivers remind your loved one when it's time to take their medications and track adherence — never administering or adjusting doses.
Encouragement and hands-on assistance with movement — helping your loved one stay active within their ability, supporting seated and standing exercises as instructed by their care team, and preventing the stiffness that comes from inactivity.
Assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting — patiently adapted to tremors and rigidity. Caregivers work at your loved one's pace, preserving independence wherever possible.
Preparing soft, nourishing meals when swallowing becomes difficult; helping with eating when tremors affect grip; monitoring appetite and fluid intake — critical as Parkinson's progresses.
Parkinson's caregiving is exhausting. Regular professional relief — a few hours a week or extended overnight coverage — helps family caregivers stay healthy and stay in their loved one's life long-term.
Parkinson's moves at its own pace. Our caregivers are trained to adjust as needs change — so your family doesn't have to start over every time the disease advances.
Your loved one is largely independent but needs watchful support as tremor and gait issues begin to affect daily life.
Falls become more frequent, balance worsens, and freezing episodes may appear — this is when most families bring in daily professional support.
Significant disability requires around-the-clock support, close collaboration with medical and therapy teams, and comfort-focused care at home.
We accept private pay, Long-Term Care Insurance, VA Aid & Attendance, and CareScout. Many families with Parkinson's have LTC policies that cover in-home care in full once benefit triggers are met — our advisors help you use them.
Most long-term care insurance policies cover in-home Parkinson's care once ADL or cognitive benefit triggers are met — which often occurs earlier for Parkinson's patients due to balance and mobility impairments. Our advisors verify your policy, help file the claim, and manage all billing so the coverage you paid for actually goes to work. We work with all major LTC carriers: Genworth, John Hancock, Mutual of Omaha, Transamerica, Northwestern Mutual, and more.
Transparent hourly rates with no hidden fees and no long-term contract — more affordable than national franchises that charge $30–$40+/hr. Start with a free in-home assessment, and care can begin within 24 hours. Rates depend on hours and care level; call for an exact quote.
Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid & Attendance benefits to help offset the cost of Parkinson's in-home care. We help families navigate and file for VA benefits at no extra charge — call 281-901-8279 and we'll walk you through eligibility and the application process.
We accept CareScout as a network partner. CareScout members receive preferred pricing, with the same transparent hourly rates and no long-term contract required.
An in-home Parkinson's caregiver provides non-medical support: fall prevention and safety supervision, medication reminders on your loved one's precise schedule, assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and meals, mobility support and encouragement to stay active, and companionship through the difficult days. They also help manage the daily unpredictability of Parkinson's — like freezing episodes, tremor-related difficulty with eating or buttons, and fatigue swings — so your loved one can remain at home safely.
Falls are the leading cause of injury and hospitalization for people with Parkinson's. Our caregivers assist with transfers (getting up from chairs, in and out of bed, on and off the toilet), walk alongside your loved one to provide balance support, help clear and reorganize fall hazards in the home environment, and stay attentive to freezing episodes — the sudden, temporary inability to move that can cause falls mid-step. Caregivers are not physical therapists and do not provide clinical rehabilitation, but their consistent presence and attentive supervision significantly reduces the risk and consequences of falls at home.
Yes, most long-term care insurance policies cover in-home care for Parkinson's disease. Policies pay once benefit triggers are met — typically requiring help with two or more Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, or transferring, or a certified cognitive impairment. Parkinson's patients often meet ADL triggers earlier than other conditions because of balance and motor impairments. Loving Arms has advisors who verify your policy, help file the initial claim, and manage all billing and documentation on your behalf. We also help veterans file for VA Aid and Attendance, and we accept CareScout and private pay at $25–$35/hr. Call 281-901-8279 with your policy information and we'll walk you through the process.
For many Parkinson's patients, staying home is safer and more comfortable than moving to an assisted living facility or memory care — particularly in the early and middle stages of the disease. A familiar, uncluttered home environment reduces fall risk and the disorientation that unfamiliar settings can cause. One-on-one in-home care also allows the caregiver to focus exclusively on your loved one, learning their specific patterns, medication timing, and triggers for freezing episodes. We offer care from a few hours a week to 24-hour live-in coverage, so the plan can adapt as the disease progresses.
For private pay and most long-term care insurance situations, care can begin within 24 hours of your free in-home assessment — and sometimes the same day for urgent needs. There is no long-term contract, so you can start with a few hours a week and adjust as your loved one's condition changes. Call 281-901-8279 any time; we answer 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
