Typical rates in your parent's area
Help at home runs about $35 an hour in most of the areas we cover. Your parent's ZIP code decides where you land, which is why we ask for it. Here's what that actually looks like.
Most families find three hours every day is the right place to start: enough for meals, a shower and real company through the middle of the day. You can adjust it whenever you need to. Even daily help at home comes in at about half the cost of a facility, and your mom stays where she is.

What non-medical help covers
Non-medical help means no injections, no wound care, no clinical tasks. It's the daily things, and you choose which ones.
Company and checking in
Someone there so she isn't alone all afternoon, who notices if something has changed and tells you.
Find this helpMeals, laundry and errands
Breakfast made, a load of washing done, a drive to the grocery store. The things that quietly stop happening.
Find this helpBathing and dressing
The intimate tasks, done by someone whose job it is, so you can go back to being her daughter instead of her nurse.
Find this helpGetting to appointments
Someone to drive her, wait with her, and tell you what the doctor actually said.
Find this helpOvernight and around-the-clock care is available too, if that's where you've got to.
How Hazel works
- 1
Tell us about your parent
A few questions, about 90 seconds. Their ZIP code, the hours you need, and when you'd want to start. Nothing you have to look up.
- 2
We find one provider who fits
Not a directory and not a list. One local provider who can actually cover those hours, with their real hourly rate.
- 3
One call, at a time you pick
From one person. If we can't help in your parent's area, we'll tell you straight away rather than passing you around.
Free · 90 seconds · One call, not six
Why we only match you with one provider
Simple, honest, and built around your time.
You're allowed to stop doing all of it
Bringing someone in isn't handing her over. You're still the one who notices, who decides, who shows up, you just don't have to do every part of it yourself. Most families wait months longer than they need to, because asking for help feels like failing. It isn't.
You'll know what it costs before anyone calls
About $35 an hour, and a real number for your parent's ZIP before you speak to a single person. No booking a visit to find out whether you can afford it.
One provider, not six
You answer a few questions, we match you with one local provider, and that's the only person who contacts you. Your details don't go on a call list and they are never sold.
Frequently asked questions
Usually not, and the detail is where families lose weeks.
Medicare does pay for home health, with conditions. A doctor has to certify that your parent needs skilled care, nursing, physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech therapy. Your parent has to be considered homebound, meaning leaving the house takes real effort or help from someone. And the care has to come from a Medicare-certified agency.
If all of that applies, Medicare covers those skilled visits, and it will also cover a home health aide for things like bathing, but only for as long as the skilled care continues, and only part-time, generally up to 28 hours a week combined.
What Medicare does not cover is personal care when that's the only thing your parent needs. No 24-hour care. No meal delivery. No shopping or cleaning outside a care plan.
That's the gap most families fall into. Your mom doesn't need a nurse, she needs someone there at lunchtime. That part you pay for privately.
