Elderly Home Care in Chicago, IL

Assisting Hands Home Care provides elderly home care services in Chicago, IL, and the northside neighborhoods of Irving Park, Portage Park, Lakeview, and Edgewater, to ensure that seniors get the care they need to continue living at home. We start with an evaluation of your loved one’s care needs so we can create an effective home care plan. As seniors face physical and mental limitations, staying at home can become more difficult as their care needs increase. Family caregivers may often experience fatigue and stress from the long hours dedicated to caring for their elderly loved ones, which can potentially affect their health.

When older adults need help to stay safe and comfortable in their own homes, family members often take on the role of caregivers to provide the assistance they need. This allows seniors to remain in the familiar surroundings of their homes instead of moving to a nursing home or assisted living facility. However, many families may not have the necessary resources to provide all the care needed without outside assistance. In these cases, professional elderly care services are an excellent solution to provide seniors with the care and support they need.
