Personal Care to Promote Independence and Well-Being
Keeping up with personal needs can become more challenging as a person ages, and it can be difficult to ask for help. Our caregivers are available to support older adults with daily personal tasks through discreet personal care assistance that ensures each person is treated with respect and dignity.
What Are Personal Care Services?
Personal care services include tasks related to hygiene, grooming, mobility and movement, and more. Our focus is on empowering individuals to maintain as much independence as possible, while providing necessary support to ensure safety. These services can include any or all of the following:
- Bathing, showering, and getting dressed
- Shaving, skin care, styling hair, applying makeup
- Meal prep and assistance with eating as needed
- Using the bathroom
- Gentle exercise
- Mobility assistance to reduce fall risk
- Getting in and out of bed
- Sitting and standing
- Navigating stairs
Personal care services help older adults remain in their homes rather than moving to a nursing home or assisted living facility. This allows individuals to maintain a routine of their choosing and to live where they are comfortable and familiar.
Who Can Benefit from Personal Care at Home?
Personal care at home is perfect for anyone who wants to stay independent but could use a little help with the more personal parts of daily life, like bathing and dressing. It’s also a relief for families who’d rather focus on spending quality time together than assisting with intimate care tasks. With the help of a professional caregiver, care feels comfortable, respectful, and private, just the way it should be.
Having a trained, experienced care professional makes all the difference when it comes to these sensitive services. It allows family members to step back from hands-on assistance, while giving their loved one the confidence and comfort that comes with professional support. Personal care services are especially beneficial for anyone recovering from an illness or surgery, managing a chronic condition, or simply finding certain tasks more difficult with age. With the right caregiver, personal care at home provides a sense of dignity, trust, and peace of mind.
How Do I Get Started With Personal Care Services?
- Schedule an in-home consultation.
We’ll visit your home to get to know the person needing care: their preferences, interests, routines, and any challenges they’re facing. - Meet your ideal caregiver.
Using what we learn during the consultation, we carefully match the individual with a caregiver whose personality, experience, and approach are the best fit. - Develop a personalized care plan.
Our team collaborates with you and your family to create a plan that reflects the right balance of support, independence, and dignity. - Ongoing monitoring and adjustments.
We continually review and adjust the care plan as needs evolve, ensuring comfort, safety, and quality of life remain at the forefront.
