Our caregivers can provide a personalized care plan for your loved one, including dressing assistance, mobility support, and bathing assistance.

Help Your Loved One Thrive with Senior Personal Assistance

Elderly personal care ensures that your loved one remains in a healthy, hygienic environment where they can thrive. Personal care has a direct impact on your loved one’s health and wellness, as they may face a wide range of health complications if they are not able to use the bathroom, take a shower, brush their teeth, or get out of bed safely. In-home personal care will give you peace of mind that your loved one is getting the care they need while continuing to enjoy the familiar surroundings of home.

Our caregivers will provide a caring and compassionate presence to ensure that your loved one gets the care they need without feeling like a burden. It is our pleasure to provide personal care services for the elderly and for adults with special needs due to medical or developmental disorders.

Signs Your Loved One Needs Personal Care Services

Often, seniors who are struggling at home will not readily admit they need help. They may not recognize that they are letting their personal hygiene slide, or they may fear that they will lose their independence and be forced to move to an assisted living facility if they admit they are unable to care for themselves like they used to. Therefore, it is important to know the signs that your loved one needs help, including:

  • A messy, disheveled appearance

  • Unexplained weight loss

  • Physical frailty

  • Lapses in paying bills or managing household expenses

  • Withdrawal from social activities

Personal Care FAQs

  • Personal care involves tasks like helping seniors in and out of bed, showering and using the bathroom, dressing, and caring for their personal hygiene. It can take time for seniors to feel comfortable entrusting a caregiver for assistance. Our team leads with compassion and professionalism, and we can help ease your loved one into a new routine, treating them with the utmost respect and dignity along the way.

  • Often, family members will try to help seniors take care of themselves, but this can lead to physical and mental stress and become a time-consuming burden. Additionally, well-meaning loved ones may not have the strength or skills needed to safely provide caregiving services, especially for seniors with mobility and strength issues. With professional caregiving support, seniors will have the assistance they need to carry out their daily routines with a reduced risk of accidents in the home.

  • There is no age at which in-home care becomes a must for seniors. The need for caregiving services depends on an individual’s health and wellness, mobility, and family support network. Instead of waiting for a specific age to reach out to an in-home care provider, look for signs that your loved one is struggling, such as a decline in personal hygiene, neglected housekeeping tasks, or difficulty maintaining their normal routine.
