When you call Assisting Hands Home Care for senior home care services, we will send staff to the home of your loved one for an assessment of their care needs. We can then create a care plan that accommodates their needs as well as a schedule for our caregiver. It is common for the care needs of seniors to change over time, so our care plans are flexible to accommodate any changes needed.
Our senior care services include help with activities of daily living (ADLs) as well as tasks around the home. The following can be included in the senior home care for your loved ones:
- Help with daily routines: Some seniors may have difficulty managing their personal care due to physical or cognitive limitations. Our caregivers will help with personal care and hygiene activities including helping them get ready for the day in the morning and ready for bed each night.
- Companionship: Social interaction tends to decline as people age and loneliness can cause depression among seniors. Our caregivers will be a social companion for your loved ones and build a personal relationship with them through friendly conversation and engaging them in their favorite activities.
- Transfer assistance: For seniors with limited mobility, we can help them move around their homes safely and assist them when getting in and out of their bed, recliner, or wheelchair.
- Bathing and showering: We will provide as much assistance as needed for your loved ones in the bath or shower.
- Toileting: We can help seniors who need assistance with restroom use.
- Dressing: Our caregivers will help your loved ones pick out their clothing and get dressed each morning and evening.
- Personal appearance: We will help your loved ones maintain their personal appearance including helping them get dressed, combing their hair, etc.
- Incontinence care: We can assist those struggling with incontinence and help when an incident occurs.
- Meal preparation: Our caregivers can prepare daily meals for your loved ones that accommodate their dietary restrictions. Meal prep includes serving the meals and cleaning up after.
- Transportation and errands: If your loved ones do not drive, our caregivers can provide transportation to help them get to doctor appointments, family events, and other important engagements. We can also help with grocery shopping and other errands.
- Light housekeeping: We can help keep the home neat and clean by taking care of some light housekeeping tasks such as vacuuming, laundry, dusting, and emptying the trash.
What are the Benefits of Senior Care?
The limitations that people experience as they age force them to make some difficult decisions in their golden years. Seniors not only give up working, but they may no longer be able to drive safely, cook their own meals, or be alone for a significant amount of time. One thing that seniors do not want to give up is their homes.
More seniors are choosing to remain at home in retirement than leave for a nursing home or assisted living facility because aging in place provides seniors with more independence and control in their lives. However, many seniors still need care and assistance to continue to live at home safely. Our home care services allow your senior loved ones to get the care they need in their homes so they can continue to age in place.
The senior caregivers of Assisting Hands Home Care passed an extensive background check and completed additional training upon being hired. They are also licensed, bonded, and insured and trained to provide First Aid and CPR. You can trust our caregivers to provide quality home care for your loved ones while treating them with compassion and respect.
