24 Hour is a short term live-in care and mostly appropriate during instances requiring intensive care.
24-hour care is most appropriate for individuals with constant care needs and whose family may lack the time or nursing expertise to provide the required level of support. This care is often necessary if your loved one is leaving the hospital after a significant surgery, like a hip replacement or another orthopedic procedure; if they are seriously ill and prefer to remain at home rather than in a hospital; or if they have a mental health condition that demands continuous reassurance and supervision.
