When our caregivers come into the homes of seniors, they are tasked with all the personal care assistance activities required for the job, but also importantly, they are tasked with making friendships. At Assisting Hands, we train our caregivers to be the kind and caring people who are going to get to know the people they see every day. We want the seniors to feel like they have companionship, someone to share their stories with. Our in-home caregivers allow the seniors to tell their stories so that someone can hear about the rich and fulfilling lives they have led. Many seniors have lost all their friends to old age, and this opportunity to share is one they love to have.<\/p>\n
