Personal Care

Personal Care Service

If you are looking for non-medical assistance with daily living activities for yourself, a family member, or a loved one, our Personal Care Service may be just the solution you need. Our capable team of Home Health Aides is skilled in providing reliable support and helping individuals improve their quality of life, while preserving their dignity. 

This class of care is ideal for individuals who need physical help due to a chronic illness, impairment from dementia, or are recovering from a stroke. The service provides hands-on help with routine tasks, such as eating, bathing, dressing, grooming and hygiene. 

Often referred to as physical care, our Personal Care Service also includes the activities that follows below.

Help Managing Medications

If you are recovering from surgery, or dealing with a chronic condition, it is vital that your medications are taken on time to prevent complications. We help you organize and manage your prescriptions safely, and see that you stick to the schedule. This way you can get back to a healthy state as quickly as possible.

Mobility and Transfer Support

The caregiver provides direct physical support to assist the individual with getting in and out of bed, walking, moving to a chair, a wheelchair, or simply going to the bathroom. This may involve using devices like belts, boards, and mechanical lifts. The goal is to prevent falls and injuries to the patient, ensure safety and dignity, and promote independence.

Light Housekeeping

We pick up the slack and handle light housekeeping duties such as meal preparation, washing the dishes, and doing laundry. We even help with appointments, errands and similar personal requirements outside the home. Your standard of living doesn't have to fall apart because you are aging or are in recovery mode.

Simple Exercise Therapy 

We assist patients with simple, routine exercises that have already been taught by a physical therapist. This helps with maintenance, encourages light movement, extends range of motion, and supports the patient's ability to regain their natural motor functions. The process is never strenuous or rushed. Progress is made at the individual's own pace.

Other Aspects of Personal Care

  • Personalized and familiar care: The individual receives one-on-one care in a comfortable, familiar environment, which can promote independence and emotional healing.
  • Flexibility:  Care arrangements can be flexible, with the option to schedule visits or hire live-in help as the situation may require.
  • Consistent Quality of Care: As the patient's health becomes more challenging, the level of care rises to meet the demand and maintain the high standard.
  • Companionship:   Caregivers provide social interaction, conversation and engage in hobbies with their patients, , which  helps to combat loneliness and depression.
  • Cost-effective:   Personal home care offers significant cost savings in many situations, when compared to the cost of institutional care.
  •  Reduced infection risk: Being at home lowers the risk of infection compared to being in a hospital or group living environment.
