Types of Senior Care Services Available
Non-medical in-home support covers a wide range of help, all designed to keep older adults safe and comfortable at home. Here are the most common types of care families in this community ask about.

What Does Care Cost Locally?
In this area, non-medical support typically costs roughly $32 to $40 per hour. The exact rate depends on the number of hours needed, the level of assistance required, and whether overnight or live-in help is involved.
Families with higher needs, such as 24-hour supervision, usually pay a different rate structure than those needing a few hours a few times a week. A local agency can walk you through a personalized quote once they understand your situation.
Paying for Care
Most families here pay privately, using personal savings or retirement income. This is often called private-pay care.
Long-term care insurance policies frequently reimburse for services provided by professional agencies, so it is worth checking your policy details early in the process.
Veterans and surviving spouses may also qualify for the VA Aid and Attendance pension, which can help offset the cost of in-home support. Keep in mind that Medicare does not cover ongoing non-medical, custodial support, so it is important to plan around other payment sources.
How to Choose a Trusted Agency in Gilbert
Arizona does not have a separate state license category specifically for non-medical home care agencies. The Arizona Department of Health Services licenses home health agencies, which provide skilled medical care, but non-medical companion and personal care agencies fall outside that licensing system.
Because of this, it is especially important to ask any agency serving this community how they screen and background-check their caregivers, what kind of training caregivers receive, and whether the agency is insured and bonded. A reputable agency will answer these questions clearly and without hesitation.
It also helps to ask about caregiver consistency, how the agency handles scheduling changes, and what happens if your regular caregiver is unavailable. These details can tell you a lot about how an agency operates day to day.
