Older individuals living alone may find everyday cleaning too challenging or overwhelming. Fortunately, you can ensure your loved ones have a tidy home with the help of our trained caregivers, who can assist with light housekeeping. Our caregivers at Assisting Hands West Houston have experience keeping homes clean.
Our Light Housekeeping Services
Older individuals who can no longer manage cleaning tasks on their own can benefit from having a caregiver to assist with light housekeeping. Light housekeeping involves tasks that do not require specialized skills or equipment. At Assisting Hands West Houston, our caregivers can help with a variety of tasks, including but not limited to:
- Bed-making
- Dusting
- Mopping
A tidy house can help enhance safety and improve the client’s mood, particularly in common areas like the living room, kitchen, and bedrooms.
Caregivers generally use the client’s own equipment, such as mops, brooms, and detergents, unless these supplies are unavailable. In such cases, our caregivers can also run errands to purchase the necessary cleaning supplies.
Comprehensive Assistance
We recognize that everyone’s needs are different, so we tailor our plans to fit each client’s requirements. Our housekeeping services can also include the following:
- Personal cleanliness is crucial for good health. With our caregivers, your loved ones can feel safe during bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting.
- When it comes to mealtime, our caregivers assist by cleaning up after meals, wiping countertops, doing the dishes, and putting plates away. If needed, our housekeeping services can also include meal preparation.
- For clients with pets, our caregivers will ensure they are fed and cared for as needed. Let us know the pet’s care routine, and we’ll handle the rest.
- If retrieving mail is a challenge, our light housekeeping services also include collecting and sorting the mail. The client can review their mail at their leisure, and our caregivers respect their privacy at all times.
- We assist with laundry, including washing and drying the client’s clothes.
Services Beyond Light Housekeeping
Light housekeeping doesn’t include any deep cleaning, such as scrubbing floors, cleaning windows and surrounding areas, polishing metal surfaces and wiping fans. We also don’t assist with cleaning kitchen appliances and fridges and areas outside of the house, like the lawn and outdoor furniture.
