HomeAssist... Senior Health Care Services
Our Senior Health Care Services are
highly personalized and flexible. We can provide home care
services from as little as a few hours to overnight.
Our HomeAssist Care Professionals can help
you or your family with the following services:
Caring Companionship
- Having someone to sit and visit with can help make for a
happier life with meaning and something to look forward to. HomeAssist's
caring companionship services cover anything from
conversation, eating a meal together or just having someone
in the home to visit.
Medication Reminders
– Reminding clients to take their medications, reporting
side effects, and assisting with pre-measured medication
packages are all ways in which we can help. Although our
caretakers cannot administer medications, they can assist
the individual who shares in the responsibility of taking
their own medication.
Meal Preparation
- A HomeAssist caretaker will prepare a nutritious meal,
including all the clean up. The opportunity to eat
regular, healthy meals can maintain strength and
hydration, promote recovery, and assure appropriate
absorption of medications.
Shopping & Errand Services
- A caretaker can run errands such as picking up
prescriptions, dry cleaning, or supplies for social
events.
Some specific examples include:
-
Grocery Shopping
– This can be done with or without the client. The
client can also specify particular stores and the
caretaker can assure compliance with prescribed diets.
- Incidental Shopping
– Caretakers can take clients wherever they need or want
to go. More than just maintaining independence, social
stimulation is therapeutic as well.
-
Light Housekeeping
- Vacuuming, dusting, cleaning floors, cleaning
bathrooms, cleaning kitchens, taking out the trash,
straightening rooms, organizing closets and drawers, are
just some of the tasks that HomeAssist can help with.
-
Laundry Services
– Washing clothes and linens can be a long and strenuous
activity. HomeAssist Caretaker can wash, dry, fold, iron
and put away a client’s laundry for them, alleviating
physical stress.
-
Bathing Assistance
- Many times our elderly or disabled clients are capable
of performing their own bathing and other personal care
services. However, the peace of mind that comes with
knowing that a trained HomeAssist caregiver is standing
by for assistance and safety supervision often gives the
client/family some necessary reassurance.
Family Respite Care
– In situations where we provide a respite for a primary
family caregiver (e.g. a wife caring for a husband or a
daughter caring for her mother), we find that with our
help the family relationship can strengthen when one
removes the considerable stress that the role of family
caretaker can bring. We find that most often care for a
client is a family situation, not just an individual
client needing care. We are always mindful of this when
advising families on care.
Recreational Activities
– HomeAssist can take the client out to enjoy their
favorite activities or stay in the home and play a hand
of cards or a board game. We want our clients to remain
engaged and to maintain the hobbies and activities
they’ve always enjoyed.
Personal Hygiene &
Dressing Guidance
– We can provide reminders and guide clients toward good
hygiene. We can also help put together outfits and help
button buttons, tie shoes, put on socks.
Incoming Mail Organization
– Our clients need not worry about sorting through the
junk mail we all seem to get these days. Our caretakers
sit down with clients and assist in sorting the
important mail such as bills, etc. Additionally, we can
provide reminders for when bills are due.
Family Care Plan Review
– Keeping the family informed of the caregiver plan and
answering any questions is a cornerstone of our
HomeAssist services. We want everyone to feel
comfortable with the care giving situation and keeping
the lines of communication open is key. HomeAssist will
make sure to keep in touch with the family on a
recurring basis.
