8-12 Points: Support Needed Soon
What Your Score Means
What this means:
Your loved one is struggling with daily life in ways that pose safety risks or significantly impact their quality of life. Professional home care should be seriously considered within the next 1-2 months.
Recommended next steps:
- Schedule a free home care assessment within the next 2 weeks to create a care plan
- Have an urgent family meeting to align on next steps and divide responsibilities
- Talk with their primary care physician about what you’re observing
- Plan for 3-5 visits per week initially, with flexibility to increase if needed
- Address any resistance with compassion—with compassion—see the blog post here for some conversation starters and support with common objections.
Why act now: Waiting until a crisis (fall, hospitalization, emergency) means making rushed decisions under stress. Acting now gives you control over the process.
What to expect: Most families in this range start with part-time care (10-15 hours per week) and adjust based on needs.
Financial note: The cost of home care now is often less than the cost of crisis intervention later (emergency room visits, hospital readmission, facility placement).

Just Like Family is not only the name of this company, it is exactly how they treat you. When we hired them for my father we did not expect the level of respect and dignity they give him. They have far exceeded our expectations and I highly recommend them to any and everyone. Angela has been a ‘godsend’ and has helped us on so many levels, we could never thank her enough.
