Assessment: Your loved one — with assistance if desired or needed — is assessed for capacities, need, preferences, risks and strength as the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services requires.
Planning: Your family member and any chosen representatives create a written service plan detailing the daily living assistance required. Areas may include bathing, dressing, feeding, helping with light housekeeping and laundry, managing medications, moving from bed to wheelchair, preparing meals, shopping, supervising activities and transporting to appointments. Contingency plans should be available for coverage when the care provider is off and instructions for fill-in caregivers should address risks
Personal Care: Personal care assistance helps adults maintain dignity as they age while receiving the care needed to stay healthy and independent. When needs extend beyond your family’s comfort, we’ll provide a helping hand with:
Bathing | Grooming | Bathroom Assistance | Dressing | Mobility | Sitting and Rising | Getting in and out of bed
Home Helper: Our trained caregivers provide a clean home to live in and nutritious meals through services like: Light housekeeping | Meal Planning | Recipe Research | Cooking | Grocery List Preparation | Grocery Shopping
In-home caregivers: Help seniors with the activities of daily living, such as shopping, meal prep, and grooming, and some provide help with personal care like toileting and bathing. These caregivers cannot provide medical care, though. While they may provide medication reminders, they are not allowed to administer medication. They are also not house cleaners, although often do some light housekeeping.
A network of support services can make aging in place possible. These supports can range from socialization and care in the home to transportation and home-delivered meals. You need to learn what resources are available in your area that can meet your loved one’s specific needs.
