24-Hour & Live-In Care in Herndon, VA

When a loved one needs continuous support, families often face a difficult decision. You want to ensure their safety, comfort, and dignity—without removing them from the place they know best: home.

At A Place At Home – Reston, we provide trusted 24-hour and live-in home care in Herndon, VA, helping seniors receive the support they need while maintaining independence and peace of mind.

What Is 24-Hour vs. Live-In Care?

Understanding the difference can help you choose the right level of support:

24-Hour Care (Around-the-Clock Coverage)

  • Multiple caregivers rotate in shifts

  • Awake and alert support at all times

  • Ideal for seniors who need frequent overnight assistance

  • Best for fall risk, dementia, or medical needs

Live-In Care (Consistent Daily Support)

  • One dedicated caregiver lives in the home

  • Caregiver sleeps overnight but is available if needed

  • More cost-effective option

  • Ideal for seniors who need support but not constant overnight attention

Our team will help you determine the best option based on your loved one’s needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About After Surgery Care

What is the difference between 24-hour care and live-in care?

24-hour care involves multiple caregivers working in shifts to provide constant awake supervision, while live-in care involves one caregiver who stays in the home and rests overnight.

 

Is 24-hour care better than live-in care?

It depends on your loved one’s needs. Seniors who require frequent nighttime assistance or supervision may benefit from 24-hour care, while others may do well with live-in care.

 

Can 24-hour care help with dementia?

Yes, 24-hour care is often recommended for seniors with Alzheimer’s or dementia who may wander, experience confusion, or need supervision at all times.

Do your caregivers provide medical care?

No, our services are non-medical. While we do not administer medications or perform clinical tasks, we do provide reminders and support with activities of daily living that promote recovery and comfort.

A Place at Home - Reston has been a great asset! They have helped take my Papa to his medical appointments when myself or Grandma couldn’t. I live 3 hours away at school, and feel very confident in Rob and his team’s ability to meet my families needs.

I have known Rob for almost 30 years. He was always kind and supportive to his brother Danny. He helped to take care of Danny for years. Seeing firsthand the gaps in the system and how society often fails our most vulnerable, Rob understands what people are looking for in caregivers. I would trust A Place At Home-Reston with the care of my loved ones without reserve. Call them!

In my 13 yrs of working with Kristina I’ve gotten to know her both professionally and personally. I’ve seen that both in her nursing and home life she lives it intentionally to be a force of good for the people around her. In your hardest and most vulnerable moments you want her to be on your side to ground you, comfort, and advocate for you. At A Place at Home- Reston, you will be taken care of just like a family.
