home aides
In-house care workers
Home aides are workers who assist people in their homes with daily living tasks—bathing, dressing, meal preparation, light housekeeping.
They typically serve elderly, disabled, or recovering individuals who need help but not full medical care.
Medicare will cover a home aide for twenty hours a week.
The term overlaps with home health aides, though the latter may perform more clinical duties.
