Studies show undeniable benefits for seniors’ self-esteem and emotional fitness to have regular hygiene and grooming.1 We are here to help clients who fear falling while bathing or have limitations that make bath-time difficult. We can assist with shampooing, shaving (with an electric shaver), hair combing and styling, and other grooming needs.

Transferring and Positioning In-Home Support
One of our top priorities is helping our clients move around their homes. This may include getting in and out of bed, chairs, and wheelchairs. Proper transferring and positioning can contribute to reducing bedsore risks. This also helps reduce muscle atrophy, while encouraging proper breathing and digestion.

We understand the sensitive nature of toileting and incontinence care for our clients. Without proper help, seniors can face many issues6. These may include skin infections, unpleasant odors, and general hygiene problems. Our caregivers offer compassionate, dignified help with these personal aspects of daily living.
Nutrition & Meal Prep
Maintaining a nutritious diet impacts overall wellbeing, as well as decreases the likelihood of many common health conditions like heart disease and diabetes. 7 For these reasons, many of our seniors have prescribed meal plans to which they must adhere for health reasons.8 Whether you seek help following a special diet or just want companionship in the kitchen, our caregivers can provide the food prep necessary for wholesome at-home meals. Our clients are welcomed to work alongside the caregiver to nurture conversation and a sense of accomplishment.
Caregivers join seniors for mealtime, taking advantage of the relaxed environment to forge natural friendships. The result? Eating will be both healthy and enjoyable.
Conversation and Companionship
Studies prove10 that seniors who stay socially engaged enjoy improved quality of life compared to their solitary counterparts. They also have a lower tendency to develop depression and general cognitive decline. Our caregivers provide seniors with conversation, mealtime companionship, and camaraderie during their favorite activities, all from the comfort of home. Our clients’ happiness is our ultimate goal!

Getting around can be difficult for seniors, especially if they are unable to drive. Our caregivers take care of this problem by running around for you. This can include grocery shopping and other errands, such as stopping at the pharmacy or post office. Your loved ones are welcome to stay home or come along for the ride as a way to stay active.13
