When someone you love begins needing extra support, understanding the difference between Home Care and Home Health can help you make the best decision for their well-being.

Home Care focuses on non-medical assistance, including personal care, meal preparation, companionship, light housekeeping, and support with everyday routines.
Its goal is to help individuals maintain their independence, preserve their dignity, and enjoy a better quality of life in the place they know and love.

Home Health, on the other hand, provides skilled medical services, such as nursing care, wound management, and physical therapy, typically under the direction of a healthcare provider.

Depending on an individual's condition and needs, these two types of care may even work together to provide more comprehensive support.

At 𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐇𝐎𝐌𝐄 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐟 𝐎𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐨𝐧, we specialize in personalized, non-medical home care because we believe that growing older or needing assistance shouldn't mean giving up the comfort and familiarity of home.
Whether your loved one needs a helping hand with daily activities, meaningful companionship, or additional support to maintain their independence, our compassionate caregivers are here to make everyday life a little easier.

As a locally owned, nurse-owned caregiving agency, we are committed to providing dependable, respectful, and individualized care for families throughout Scappoose, St. Helens, Columbia County, and surrounding communities.

Not sure if home care is the right choice for your loved one?
Let us help you explore your options and find the support that best fits your family's needs.

Because compassionate care begins with understanding, and everyone deserves to feel safe, valued, and comfortable at home.

💜 HOW CAN I PAY FOR IN-HOME CARE?
Part 1: MediCARE vs. MediCAID

If you’re helping an aging parent stay safely at home, you may have already discovered something frustrating:

Paying for in-home caregiving can be confusing.

One of the biggest questions we hear is:

👉 “Won’t Mom’s Medicare pay for a caregiver?”

Usually, no — not for the type of ongoing caregiving most families are looking for.

🔵 MediCARE = Health Insurance

Think CARE = medical care.

Medicare is federal health insurance primarily for adults 65+ and certain younger people with disabilities.

Under specific circumstances, Medicare can cover short-term or intermittent skilled home health services such as nursing or therapy.

But Medicare generally does NOT pay for ongoing non-medical caregiving when that is the only care someone needs, such as:

• Bathing and dressing
• Meal preparation
• Housekeeping
• Toileting and personal care
• Companionship
• Everyday assistance that helps Mom or Dad remain safely at home

🟣 MediCAID = Assistance Based on Eligibility

In Oregon, Medicaid can help eligible individuals pay for long-term services and supports, including assistance in their own home.

For older adults and adults with physical disabilities, eligibility and services may be coordinated through Oregon Aging and People with Disabilities (APD). Eligibility is based on factors including financial and functional criteria.

And yes — someone can have both Medicare AND Medicaid.

At Compassionate inHOME Caregiving, we know families often begin looking for help because something has changed: Mom is struggling with bathing, Dad shouldn’t be cooking alone anymore, medications are becoming difficult to manage, or you’re simply worried about them being home without enough support.

Then comes the next question:

“How are we going to pay for this?”

That’s why we’re starting a new series:

💜 How Can I Pay for In-Home Care?

We’ll break down options including:
➡️ Medicaid
➡️ Private Pay
➡️ Long-Term Care Insurance
➡️ Veterans benefits
➡️ And other resources Oregon families may not know are available.

Follow along — and please share this with someone helping an aging parent navigate care. 💜

💜 The Reason Behind Compassionate inHOME Caregiving

This is my Nanny. 💜

Long before Compassionate inHOME Caregiving of Oregon had a name, an office, employees, or clients, there was a much simpler reason behind it:

Family.

As a nurse, I’ve spent years caring for people during some of the most vulnerable moments of their lives. But when it’s someone you love who needs help, you experience caregiving differently.

My Nanny helped shape how I think about aging, independence, dignity, and what it truly means to care for another person.

I learned that families don’t just need someone to show up. They need someone they can trust. Someone who sees the person—not just the tasks that need to be completed.

Helping with a meal, medications, a shower, laundry, or getting safely around the house may seem like ordinary tasks. But to the person receiving that help, they can mean independence, dignity, and the ability to remain at home.

That belief became Compassionate inHOME Caregiving of Oregon.

When I started this agency, I wanted to build the kind of agency I would trust with my own family.

That standard still guides me today.

Would I send this caregiver into my Nanny’s home?
Would I trust them with someone I love?
Would I be satisfied with the care and communication if I were the worried family member on the other end of the phone?

Behind every schedule and every shift is a real person—and a family trusting us with someone incredibly important to them.

We’ve grown, but the why hasn’t changed.

💜 Protect dignity and independence.
💜 Help people remain in the home they love.
💜 Give families peace of mind.
💜 Care for people the way we’d want our own family cared for.

This is my Nanny. And in many ways, she is part of the reason Compassionate inHOME Caregiving exists today.

Compassion in Real Life. 💜
