Who We Are




Many adults in this position can handle a lot of their daily tasks, but as they get older, certain chores and even personal care activities may become more difficult to handle. At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide advanced home care services in Palatine, IL to give senior citizens and adults with disabilities the care they need to continue living at home. We hire highly qualified caregivers who can provide excellent care and companionship, as well as help with certain activities such as transportation and housekeeping.

Aging in place has become the new norm for senior citizens as more seniors are choosing to remain in their homes than leave for assisted living or a nursing home. This phenomenon has led to a higher demand for in-home care services, and these services have improved over the years to meet the care needs of senior citizens and adults with disabilities who prefer to live in their own homes.

Veteran Home Care

Veterans need to apply for medical benefits with the Department of Veterans Affairs before they can qualify for our VA care programs.  Veterans who are eligible for VA benefits can receive home health care and respite care services with our VA programs.

Our caregivers will provide veterans and their spouses who qualify for these programs with compassionate, quality home care to help them live safely and comfortably at home.  We will work with veterans and their families to create a home care plan that meets their care needs.  Our VA care services can include assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), transportation, meal preparation, and light housekeeping.
