The demand for home care has greatly increased as senior citizens are now offered the ability to age in place. With more control of their lives, it’s no surprise their home is where they choose to be.
But to be independent at home, they will need some assistance to continue living safely. Whether it’s cooking, cleaning, transportation or just companionship, these needs can easily be fulfilled. Our in-home caregivers will help with each of these daily tasks, providing non-medical care services to help the individual live safely and comfortably (See the Full List of Services).

Non-Medical Home Health Care in Western Springs
Our home health aides can assist with a number of activities of daily living (ADLs) and instrumental activities of daily living (IADLs). During the first consultation, we will assess the home as well as the needs of your loved one.
We will then develop a detailed care plan that fits these needs and select a caregiver whom we believe would be the best fit. Our home care services include each of the following:
- Transferring: For seniors with limited mobility, our caregivers can help them get into and out of their chairs as well as change positions if needed.
- Personal Grooming: It’s certainly important to maintain proper hygiene, so we can help your loved one brush their teeth, comb or brush their hair, put on makeup, and more.
- Bathing and Showering: It’s always important to shower or bathe regularly but this can be difficult for aging seniors. Our caregivers can lend a hand when needed.
- Incontinence Care: Incontinence will come at some point, but our caregivers can help them clean up and change following an incident.
- Dressing: We can help your loved one change into and out of their clothes both in the morning and at night as needed.
Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs): Self-Care Tasks
- Senior Companion Care: Our caregivers understand the possibility of loneliness when choosing to remain in place, which is why we always act as companions to your loved one. We will engage them in their favorite hobbies and conversation to fulfill their social needs.
- Respite Care: We certainly understand the demands of a family caregiver can be stressful, especially with a full-time job and family of your own. Our caregivers can fill in when you can’t make it. At any time of day, any day of the week, we can be there when your loved one needs it.
- Hospice Care Assistance: Our caregivers are available to provide assistance with daily tasks, such as companionship, cleaning, meal preparation and more to allow the family more time with their loved ones.
- Overnight Home Care: Our caregivers can stay overnight with your loved one to provide sound peace of mind. They will respond to any emergencies as well as help your loved one transfer or use the restroom as needed.
- After-Surgery Care: Certainly, one should not be cooking or cleaning just after surgery. Our caregivers can help with these tasks to ensure a full recovery. We can also help with transferring, transportation and medication reminders if needed.
- 24/7 Home Care and Live-In Care: If your loved one needs assistance around the clock, our caregivers can either alternate 12-hour shifts for 24-hour home care or live in your loved one’s home, sleeping for a minimum of five hours each night.
- Dementia and Alzheimer’s Care: For patients with dementia or Alzheimer’s, our caregivers are trained to work with compassion and respect as things can get stressful with memory loss. We can help stimulate their mind with fun games and respond to any outbursts if necessary.
- Senior Home Care: Our caregivers can help with daily tasks, including medication reminders, transportation, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and more.
