Description

Elise Hu, Lijuan Yin, and Maria Caceres describe the pairs at the heart of a home care trial, in a 2023 report. The Pro-Home study paired older clients with paid home care aides who help with daily tasks. These pairs, and the agencies around them, formed the base for signing up 128 pairs into the trial.

Most clients lived alone and could not meet family or friends often, so the aide was a key social link. Most kept the same aide through the four-month program. During the pandemic, though, one in five clients in the program lost or changed aides, twice the earlier rate. The authors say funding plans must face this turnover.
