Who Can Benefit from In-Home Care?

We believe anyone who needs a little help to stay safe and healthy in their own home can benefit from home care services. People recently discharged from the hospital may require temporary assistance with cooking, laundry and transportation. Family members with a cognitive impairment like dementia may benefit from ongoing help with medication reminders and companionship. In general, if you worry your loved ones cannot safely care for themselves at home anymore, they may benefit from the in-home care we provide.

Here are some specific signs your loved one may exhibit that may require professional caregiving assistance:

                     Housekeeping isn’t kept up like it used to be

                     Household bills aren’t being paid

                     Medications aren’t being taken on schedule

                     Personal hygiene is declining

                     Appliances, like stoves and irons, are left on and forgotten

                     Recently lost their spouse, or seems lonely

                     Doesn’t want to cook anymore

                     Driving is becoming a hazard

                     Diagnosed with Alzheimer’s or a related dementia

                     Arthritis has made it difficult to perform simple tasks like buttoning clothes

 

Home Care Increases Quality of Life at Home

Our professional CARE Givers not only provide your loved ones with physical assistance, but they offer companionship -- someone to talk to, someone to listen. For elderly family members, this human connection may be the most valuable component of in-home care.

But professional care giving isn’t just about companionship. Our highly trained CARE Givers deliver services tailored to your family member’s individual needs.  A typical day might look like this:

                    Get started with a shower, a hot breakfast and a reminder to take medications

                    Do some dusting while chatting about current events

                    Throw in a load of laundry

                    Look at photo albums and listen to stories about your family member’s childhood

                    Fold clothes and make the bed

                    Prepare a nutritious lunch and sit at the table together to enjoy it

                    Help your family member go for a walk outdoors to get some fresh air

                    Make sure your loved one is tucked safely into bed before leaving-- or stay overnight

to ease your family member’s anxiety about living alone.

 

You probably can’t always be there to personally provide care for every member of your family, but we can. Our Caregivers act as your partner to deliver the care services your family members need to maintain a high quality of life at home. And you enjoy the peace of mind that comes from knowing your loved one is safe, happy and healthy.
