The webinar, "A Basic Primer in Home Care," will help families learn how they can "choose home" for the seniors or loved ones who, because of frailty, need some assistance in their lives with daily living.

Help Choose Home. Three simple words that can mean all the difference for a frail loved one.

When frailty means additional help is needed, helping a loved one choose home means helping recuperate faster or helping to feel secure, familiar and helping to maintain a sense of independence.

In-home care has been a part of the health care delivery system for well over a century, and we want to help you choose home so you understand what in-home care is, how to get it, what it costs, and the possibilities that it presents for long-term care.

On Tuesday, September 6, 2011 from 7 p.m. to 8 p.m. (ET), two experts on senior issues, the Private Duty Homecare Association (PDHCA) and Caring.com, have come together to share with you some options to help your loved one choose home when care is needed.

Our first discussion, facilitated by Merrily Orsini, MSSW from PDHCA and co-presented with aging expert Mary Koffend from Caring.com, is a Basic Primer on Home Care. You will learn the ins and outs of home care and hear information on:

• What is in-home care?
• Why would you want to use in-home care?
• Types of in-home care
• The importance of respite care for families
• Who pays for in-home care?
• Frequently asked questions
• Where to find help
