  • Provide positive reinforcement techniques in a loving and dignifying manner

I was in a tough situation. My 94 year old mother has dementia and my 94 year old father was her caretaker. He had a fall in the home and was not physically able to care for mom any longer. I had nowhere to turn to. Both mom and dad needed special attention that I could not provide. Dad refused to go to a nursing home with mom. I asked friends for advice. I finally did some research regarding home health care. Dad agreed that if I found an agency that could deliver professional caregivers he would give it a try. I found Assisting Hands Home Care. It has now been almost 3 months and this was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Mom and Dad are getting the attention and service that they need. The staff at Assisting Hands is remarkable. They are always there for you if a question arises. The customer service is outstanding and they really do care for the clients. I can’t say enough about Assisting Hands and what they have done for my parents and my family as well.
