FAQ

Comfort Keepers In-Home Care in Euless, Texas.

Frequently Asked Questions about 

Senior Care 

The following are some Home Care FAQ's questions most frequently asked by families in search of senior care for their aging parent, grandparent or loved one.

What is home care and how does it differ from home healthcare?

In its truest meaning, home care refers to any type of care (medical or non-medical) that is provided for the client in their home. In recent years, however, there has been a slight shift in terminology.  While home care can be used to describe both medical and non-medical care, typically "home care" refers to non-medical care such as companionship/homemaking services and personal care services, while "home healthcare" refers to the provision of skilled nursing care and other care such as speech, physical or occupational therapy.
 

What services does Comfort Keepers®  of Euless provide?

Comfort Keepers of Euless is a Texas Licensed in-home senior care agency that provides companionship services such as meal preparation, laundry, light housekeeping, grocery shopping/errands, incidental transportation, medication reminders, grooming, live-in service and respite care.  We also provide personal care services such as bathing, grooming, and hygiene, mobility assistance, transferring and positioning, toileting and incontinence and feeding/special diet assistance.  Our offices also provides specialized Dementia/Alzheimer’s care and in-home safety technology solutions.
 

How are Comfort Keepers® selected?

Each caregiver, special people we call Comfort Keepers, is an employee who is carefully screened and trained before caring for a client.  Each must undergo a rigorous process including national and local criminal background checks, DMV, and personal and professional reference checks.  All Comfort Keepers are bonded, insured, and covered by Workers’ Compensation insurance for our clients’ peace-of-mind. We strive to hire the very best caregivers to become Comfort Keepers, because we only hire people we would want caring for a member of our own family.
 

Are services available 24 hours, 7 days a week?

Yes.  Services are available for as little as a few hours a visit up to 24 hours, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.  
 

Do you provide services to those in nursing homes or assisted living communities?

Yes, from Corona to Yucaipa our caregivers can provide companionship or personal care to residents at assisted living communities and nursing homes. We provide these services throughout the Mid-Cities area 24-hours a day to seniors who desire additional services, or the attention and personalized care that most facilities do not offer.  
 

Is there a written plan of care for each client? Is it modified and if so, how often?

Our office in Euless develops an individualized and completely confidential Plan of Care for each client.  The purpose is to document the type of care services needed and when the client would like to initiate care.  Once the client, and family members, and local office agrees on the Plan of Care, the office staff will use that information to recommend the caregiver who will be delivering the service, establish the schedule and agree to the monitoring and communication.

Plans of Care are reviewed with the client and family at least every six months, but may be more frequent based on client needs and to ensure compliance with our standards of care and applicable Texas laws. The review is an important process to ensure the client is receiving the appropriate level of care and is pleased with the home health aide or caregiver providing the care.
 

Will I have the same caregiver all the time?  How will I meet my caregiver?

During the initial conversation and the in-home visit, our Client Care Coordinator will document the services required and the client's preferences for a Comfort Keeper match.  Then, the Client Care Coordinator selects the best caregiver fit for the client and will arrange an introduction between the client, caregiver, and coordinator to introduce each member of this new team.  During that meeting, all of the involved parties review the Plan of Care to ensure that everyone agrees and understands what services are to be provided.
 

What if my Comfort Keeper is sick or on vacation?

Our office employs a team of caregivers so that your care service will not be interrupted if someone gets sick or goes on vacation.   If your caregiver or home health aide is unavailable, the Client Care Coordinator will arrange another caregiver and will contact you in advance of the change.   The Client Care Coordinator will also introduce the interim caregiver to you and review your Plan of Care with the interim caregiver prior to service.   Our goal is to ensure that services are provided as expected.  Your safety and security are a top priority.
 

What are ADLs and IADLs?

Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) include the basic tasks essential for day-to-day functioning, such as bathing, dressing, grooming, eating, mobility and toileting. Many seniors who require help with such activities are largely independent, but may require help with one or two ADLs. In some cases, intermittent help from a family member or friend may be all that is needed. However, in many cases, particularly when family or friends are unavailable and the importance of scheduling these activities is critical, informal care arrangements may not be adequate.
 

Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADLs) are considered those activities which are less basic than the traditional ADLs. IADLs, nevertheless, are important in enhancing a client’s quality of life. IADLs include such activities as shopping, paying bills, cleaning, doing the laundry and meal preparation.  Many seniors require assistance with IADLs rather than ADLs. Some seniors want someone to escort them when they are shopping and help them avoid situations that might cause them to fall. Other seniors may welcome assistance with their bill paying and medical appointments. Comfort Keepers offers an array of companionship and homemaking services to assist our clients with the IADLs. Please contact our office at (817) 282-0828 for more information or you can request a call back at a time that is convenient for you by filling out our online form.
