18-25 Points: Urgent Intervention Required
What Your Score Means
What this means:
Your loved one is facing serious, immediate safety and health risks. This situation requires urgent professional intervention—ideally within 24-48 hours.
Recommended next steps:
- Call a home care agency TODAY and explain the urgency—many can start care within 24-48 hours
- Consider 24-hour care based on the assessment
- Contact their physician immediately or consider an urgent care visit if health has declined suddenly
- Do NOT leave them alone until care is in place—arrange family rotation if needed
- If you see signs of immediate danger (severe confusion, inability to care for self, suicidal thoughts), call 911 or take them to the emergency room
Why act now: At this level, we’re typically seeing multiple safety risks happening simultaneously. The risk of serious injury, hospitalization, or worse is very high.
For overwhelmed family caregivers: If you’re providing care at this level, you need help NOW. Caregiver burnout at this stage often leads to health crises for BOTH the caregiver and the care recipient.
What to expect: Emergency or rapid-response home care typically starts with intensive support (daily or 24-hour care) and adjusts once stabilization occurs.
Hospital consideration: If several checked items involve confusion, sudden health decline, or inability to perform basic self-care, a medical evaluation may be needed before home care begins.

Just Like Home has provided my mom with excellent support during a season when she was not managing well on her own. She had been thinking of moving in with us, but with the support of the excellent worker provided, she has been able to regain her confidence and stay in her own place. The same worker came each time, was dependable, friendly and efficient. Couldn’t ask for anyone better. Definitely recommend to others!
