Home nursing care vs residential care – which is better?
Residential care refers to moving from one’s home into a care facility such as a nursing home. The elderly are most known to move into care facilities where they can get around-the-clock care. However, residential care is also available to anyone who needs 24-hour care, including children and disability patients.
Having said that, it is important to note that home care is better than residential care. One gets access to 24-hour personalised care at the comfort of their homes where there are familiar surroundings. This is unlike residential care facilities where one is stuck in an isolated home with unfamiliar surroundings and faces. What’s more, they have to follow a rigid routine for sleep, meals, and play time.
Home care offers flexibility as individuals can access care that’s tailored to their needs. They have flexible meal times, go out for activities when they feel like, and spend time with family and friends.
Patients suffering from dementia can also benefit from home care as opposed to residential care. The unfamiliar surroundings in a care facility can disorient the patient and make their condition worse.

Home Nursing Care FAQs
What is home care nursing?
Home care nursing is a nursing speciality where caregivers travel to patients’ homes to treat and care for them. Home care nursing is available to the elderly, patients who have been recently discharged from the hospital and can’t care for themselves, and individuals suffering from chronic conditions.
What is it like to work for a nursing agency?
Our care professionals generally work independently, but they act as the eyes and ears of the entire care team. We support our professionals throughout all the stages of care. They independently review a care plan and provide the relevant high-quality care in a professional manner as per their training and based on the patient’s individual needs.
What services should a nursing agency provide?
A good nursing agency should provide all levels of care, from low level to high level and end of life care. Here at Care for Family, we offer the following nursing services:
- Aged Care
- Palliative Care
- Disability Care
- NDIS Services
- 24-Hour Care
- Overnight Care
- Live-in Care
- Dementia Care
- Respite Care
- Parkinson’s Disease Care
- Domestic Assistance
- Personal Assistance and Companionship
What does domiciliary care mean?
Domiciliary care refers to care that is offered in an individual’s home. It is another name for home care. In domiciliary care, the caregiver offers services such as cooking, cleaning, and helping with personal hygiene and grooming. Domiciliary care can be included in a patient’s home care package or bought privately depending on the individual’s needs.
Why is home care important?
When someone is suffering a chronic condition or they are unable to care for themselves, they usually end up in a hospital or home where they are surrounded by doctors and patients. Such an environment can be depressing, especially if one is stuck there for a long period of time.
Home care allows the sick, incapacitated, and elderly to access treatment and personalised care at the comfort of their homes. The familiar environment gives a sense of security which promotes happiness and peace. When someone is receiving care at home, they are surrounded by their loved ones, and this promotes quick recovery. The ability to be in a space with personal possessions, treasured memories, and familiar sight and sounds also promote an overall feeling of wellness.
There are usually a lot of supportive family and/or friends to offer to help. Having a good support system is never about just one person saying or doing the right thing, rather it’s about having a network of support people who come together to help in big and small ways and it’s the gestures that are often more appreciated.
Home health care and home care are two distinct services. Home care refers to medical care that is provided at an individual’s home. Home care does not involve the administration of medication as it is not prescribed by a doctor. However, the caregiver helps with additional tasks such as the following:
- Personal care
- Home therapy
- Light housekeeping
- Transportation
- Medical reminders
On the other hand, home health care is a medical skilled service that requires a written order from a doctor. The caregiver offers the following services in addition to personal care:
- Wound care
- IV care
- Administration of injections
- Administration of medication
- Home therapy
Home health care is usually on a short-term basis while home care is more of a long-term care plan. Home health care is covered by Medicare and Medicaid as it is a doctor-prescribed service. On the other hand, home care is privately financed. However, if one has long-term care insurance, it will cover the cost of hiring a home caregiver.
What are the advantages/benefits of home care?
Palliative care can focus on managing physical symptoms, like pain or nausea. It can also help with emotional, spiritual, cultural and social needs.
Home care is an essential service for any individual who requires long-term help to manage a disability, chronic illness, or old age. Below are some of the benefits of home care:
- Around-the-clock care with day-to-day activities.
- The home care nurse assists with light housekeeping tasks such as cleaning.
- Home care provides access to professionals who have been specially trained to care for patients with different needs.
- Home care takes the pressure off loved ones who would otherwise be forced to change their routines and set aside time to care for their dependent loved one.
- Home care professionals provide home therapy services such as physiotherapy, and these can help promote quick recovery.
