(Courtesy of Respect)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Aging by the numbers<\/h2>\n<p>As the population ages, Kimbarovsky foresees no shortage of people seeking home care.<\/p>\n<p>Respect offers what are known as \u201chomemaker\u201d services: things like personal care, companionship, medication reminders, and light housekeeping.<\/p>\n<p>More than 90 percent of Respect\u2019s caregivers have nursing assistant or home health certifications, but the company isn\u2019t focused on providing home health care. Home health care involves clinical medical care and is often administered by a registered nurse or an occupational therapist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s a growth industry as we say,\u201d said Daniel Brauner, a geriatrician at the University of Chicago. \u201cThere\u2019s a tremendous need, obviously. Lots of people as they get older, and lots of people who are younger, need help at home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The population of adults over the age of 65 is expected to double to 83.7 million by 2050, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. About 22 percent of Illinois\u2019 population will be 60 or older by 2030, a 28 percent increase from 2012, according to the Department of Health and Human Services.<\/p>\n<p>In Illinois, adults over the age of 65 reported an average of 4.6 days in the past month in which their ability to complete activities independently was limited, according to the Centers for Disease Control.<\/p>\n<h2>Money matters<\/h2>\n<p>Though the demand for home care is growing, wages for personal care aides remain low.<\/p>\n<p>The 1.4 million personal care aides working in the U.S. make an average of $10.48 an hour, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Aides in the Chicago area fare slightly better, with an average hourly wage of $10.70, while Milwaukee-based aides fare worse at $10.13 an hour.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe problem in the traditional industry is that pay is so low that opportunities are limited, and that\u2019s one of the problems we\u2019re trying to solve,\u201d Kimbarovsky said.<\/p>\n<p>Respect employs 20 to 25 caregivers, and they pay them 20 to 30 percent above the market average, Kimbarovsky said.<\/p>\n<p>Nadiesha McAdory, a Respect caregiver based in the Milwaukee area, said that she appreciates the company\u2019s focus on compensating its employees fairly.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s way more than what I ever really made at any other home,\u201d McAdory said. \u201cSo home help, I usually make like, $10. With Respect, I\u2019m almost at $13.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Leveraging technology to streamline logistics has allowed the company to cut costs and pay caregivers more, Kimbarovsky said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are able to pay them 20 to 30 percent above market because in rethinking home health care, we were able to create efficiencies in many of these processes,\u201d Kimbarovsky said. \u201cSo we built mobile apps that shortcut some of the problems that existing agencies have, and that allowed us to reduce the cost of healthcare and return some of that to caregivers.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_56366\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-56366\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/03\/Group-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-56366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/03\/Group-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/03\/Group-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/news.medill.northwestern.edu\/chicago\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2017\/03\/Group-1024x768.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-56366\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Respect&#8217;s West Loop office is home to three other startups: CrowdSpring, Quickly Legal and Curio. (Rachel Newman\/MEDILL)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>The high cost of home care<\/h2>\n<p>Though services like Respect are essential for families with ailing loved ones, the cost can prohibit some from hiring the help they need.<\/p>\n<p>The median monthly cost for home care services amounts to $4,385 in the Chicago area, compared with a national median of $3,813, according to a report by Genworth. The average hourly rate for homemaker services, in Chicagoland is $21, compared with $20 for the Milwaukee area and $19 nationally, according to a survey by MetLife.<\/p>\n<p>Respect\u2019s services start at $24 an hour, $3 above Chicago\u2019s average.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re looking at ways we can help people pay,\u201d Kimbarovsky said. \u201cSo, for example, some people have long-term care insurance. And long-term care insurance will often pay for home care, for non-medical home care. Many people don\u2019t know that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>So-called \u201caging in place\u201d is generally beneficial for patients, but it\u2019s challenging for those who don\u2019t have a supportive social network, said Geraldine Luna, a geriatrician at the University of Illinois at Chicago.<\/p>\n<p>U.I.C.\u2019s geriatric medicine unit serves a majority low-income population that often can\u2019t access the home care services they need without financial assistance from the state of Illinois, Luna said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou want to keep the patients at home and independent as long as you can,\u201d Luna said. \u201cWhen they\u2019re at home, but they can&#8217;t complete all the tasks, there\u2019s money out there for patients that do qualify, and they do pay for a homemaker that comes to the home a couple hours a day.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Avoiding burnout<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s common for family members to experience \u201ccaregiver burnout\u201d from the stress that comes from balancing caretaking activities with daily life, Luna said.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s exactly what Christine Bartholow of Elm Grove, Wisc. experienced while caring for her husband, Les, who has dementia.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI really needed some time for me,\u201d Bartholow said. \u201cI was really feeling burnt out, and January was a very difficult time. And his doctor had said, \u2018Get somebody to help.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>After interviewing several home care agencies, Bartholow settled on Respect because she felt the caregivers were more qualified and could be helpful as her husband\u2019s disease progressed. She liked that so many of Respect\u2019s caregivers have professional training.<\/p>\n<p>Though the Bartholows\u2019 caregiver, Ebony, does not have a certification, they\u2019re happy with the care she\u2019s provided.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cJust having the one-on-one for him is so great because, not that I wouldn\u2019t love to just do that, but I can\u2019t,\u201d Bartholow said. \u201cI\u2019m running the household for both of us and taking care of the maintenance on the home and making sure he has nutritious meals.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>Not just about the cost<\/h2>\n<p>As health services at every level experience budget and time constraints, some experts worry that patient care will suffer.<\/p>\n<p>Brauner, the University of Chicago geriatrician, worries that relationships between patients and care providers will become transactional, like the sort of relationship a customer has with a salesman.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith any caregiver, knowing the person you\u2019re working with is essential, and really the way to know somebody is to know them longitudinally, over time,\u201d Brauner said.<\/p>\n<p>Respect has prioritized offering families a more personalized experience. Clients are shown video interviews of prospective caregivers when they sign up for the service.<\/p>\n<p>Some home care agencies send caregivers to clients\u2019 homes with minimal training and little background information, leading to an awkward first meeting, McAdory said. With Respect, that wasn\u2019t the case.<\/p>\n<p>When she got her first client, McAdory and her manager visited the client\u2019s home together to make sure that everyone was comfortable with each other.<\/p>\n<p>For the Bartholows, these personal touches have paid off.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re glad to have someone like [Ebony],\u201d Christine Bartholow said. \u201cAnybody can do the technical stuff, but she\u2019s a very kind and concerned young lady.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"featurecaption\">Ross Kimbarovsky at Respect&#8217;s West Loop office.
