November is a season of giving thanks, of slowing down and appreciating the people who make a real difference in our lives. At Assisting Hands, we take this time to celebrate our incredible caregivers. These are the people who bring compassion, patience and joy into the lives of our clients and families every single day. November reminds us to honor those who do it with heart.

Honoring Our Arlington Heights Home Caregivers

Our Caregivers are the heart of what we do. They go above and beyond not just by showing up, but by bringing their own personal touch, a kind word, and listening to our clients and families. This can change a day for someone, and each act of care that they provide contributes to our mission to provide exceptional home care that enriches the lives of clients and peace of mind for families.

One client said it best just last week in a review he shared about his caregiver:

“We have had an extremely positive experience with the Assisting Hands agency. They have a team that is both responsive and caring. We cannot say enough good about our Caregiver who has provided for my wife as an Alzheimer’s patient. Our caregiver is always dependable, kind, and caring for my wife. She is knowledgeable about dementia, based on her past experiences working with individuals with the condition. She has been a true blessing to work with my wife. We are thankful to have an agency like Assisting Hands to work with us.”

These words reflect what we witness every day – our caregivers are more than helpers; they bring light, joy and comfort into the lives of everyone they care for.

“Absolutely the best care that I would have wanted for my husband, who was in hospice at home. The caregivers were all so friendly and giving and took a huge load off of my shoulders. They became part of the family very quickly.”
-JS, Arlington Heights

The kudos for these amazing words go to our caregivers – they are the essence of Assisting Hands.

Celebrating Together

This time of year, we have had the joy of showing our love and support to each of our caregivers. We spoil them just a little this time of year! I’m sure you’ll agree, they deserve all this and more.

It all kicks off with our VIP Caregiver Dinner that honors our caregivers that have been with us for three or more years. An evening filled with food, laughter, and heartfelt gratitude.

Next up is our Thanksgiving Turkey Giveaway. This is a small gesture with big meaning, not only providing nourishment but showing appreciation for everyone on our team.

Caregiver and client pie Giveaway is a time when we make the rounds to local homes with a sweet treat to say thank you in a way only desserts can.

The grand finale is the Annual Holiday Party and Raffle. This is a chance to get the whole crew together and acknowledge the difference they have made in their local community over the last year.

The smiles, laughter, and stories shared at these events remind us why we do what we do. They bring warmth to our lives and remind each of us how special our caregivers truly are.

Gratitude From the Heart

To our Caregivers – thank you. Thank you for showing up every day with your dedication, kindness and a smile. You truly make a difference in ways that cannot be measured. You’re not just employees; you’re family and we are deeply grateful for each and every one of you.
