Our senior care services are customized to ensure that each of our senior clients gets the specific care they need to accommodate their needs and ensure that they can live safely in their homes. Our home care plans can include help with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as personal care and hygiene activities and help with things like errands and light housekeeping. We start by meeting with you and your senior loved ones and evaluating their care needs so we can form an effective care plan.
Our senior home care services can include the following:
- Help with activities of daily living (ADLs): Personal activities like dressing, bathing, and other personal hygiene activities may become difficult for seniors. Our caregivers can help your loved ones with these activities each morning and evening before bed as well as throughout the day.
- Bathing and showering: Our caregivers can provide full or partial assistance for those who need help.
- Toileting: For those who need help with toileting, we can provide full or partial assistance.
- Transfer assistance: Seniors with limited mobility may have a difficult time moving throughout the home and getting in and out of bed. We can help seniors with limited mobility move around the home safely and get in and out of their bed, recliner, or wheelchair.
- Dressing: Our caregivers will help your loved ones get dressed in the morning and in the evening before bed.
- Personal appearance: We can help your senior loved ones maintain their personal appearance by helping them get dressed and comb their hair to give them confidence in their appearance.
- Incontinence care: We can assist those with incontinence and help them clean up.
- Meal preparation: If your senior loved ones do not cook, we can prepare daily meals for them that account for their dietary restrictions.
- Transportation: We can help seniors who do not drive by providing transportation and helping them get to doctor appointments and other important engagements. We can also help with errands.
- Light housekeeping: Our caregivers can help keep the home neat and clean by helping with light housekeeping duties such as laundry, washing dishes, dusting, vacuuming, and more.
- Companionship: It is common for seniors who live alone to experience loneliness, especially if they do not have friends and family nearby. Our caregiver will be a friend and companion to your loved one to provide them with meaningful social interaction and help relieve feelings of loneliness. We will engage your loved ones in conversation and fun activities to build a personal relationship with them.
What are the benefits of Senior Care?
As seniors age, they may have to make compromises when it comes to things like working and driving to ensure a better quality of life. One thing more seniors are refusing to give up after retirement is their homes. Aging in place allows seniors to have more independence in their lives than they would get at a nursing home or assisted living facility and they can remain in a comfortable environment. However, many seniors will still need some level of care and assistance to live at home safely. Professional senior home care makes aging in place a more realistic option.
Our caregivers at Assisting Hands Home Care are licensed, bonded, and insured and have each passed a background check. They are also trained in First Aid and CPR and have completed additional training upon hiring. You can trust our caregivers to provide quality care for your senior loved ones while treating them with compassion and respect.
