How can my loved one benefit from home care?

Home care can provide invaluable support for aging loved ones or those with special needs, chronic illness or disabilities. Between help with medical requirements, nutritional intake and personal care support, a home nursing assistant can allow your loved one to live at home in comfort despite health and mobility challenges.

Enabling your loved one to remain at home for as long as possible allows them to stay in a familiar setting and not uproot their everyday life. Unlike in assisted living facilities, where there isn't as much capacity for individualized care, a home nursing assistant provides complete customized care and attention tailored to your loved one's condition, needs or preferences.  

Proudly offering home health assistance in New York for 15 years and counting, our home care professionals are passionate about providing the assistance your loved one needs and deserves. With devoted home personal care service, you can rest easy knowing that your loved one is safe and comfortable. 

Here's what a home health aide can do

A certified home health aide (HHA) can help your loved one with a variety of everyday tasks.

Personal Hygiene & Grooming

Essential everyday tasks like showering, bathing, trimming nails and other grooming tasks can be challenging for seniors and individuals living with illnesses or disabilities. A home nursing assistant can alleviate the burden with specialized personal hygiene and grooming services.

Daily Meal Preparation  

Many health conditions can make meal preparation difficult or unsafe. While conditions like arthritis can make navigating a kitchen a painful task, conditions like memory loss or dementia can increase hazards like forgetting to turn off the stove. A certified home care specialist can manage meal preparation for your loved one. When you hire private care aide services, your loved one can enjoy balanced meals and the many benefits that come with optimal nutritional intake.

Feeding

Debilitating health conditions can impact an individual's ability to feed themselves. When mobility challenges make eating and drinking complex tasks, a home nursing assistant can step in and provide vital feeding support.

Light Housekeeping & Laundry 

Household chores can become an uphill battle for those with chronic conditions or special needs, but a clean house is vital for health and well-being. A messy home can become unsanitary and be a safety risk if your loved one has mobility issues. Fortunately, you can hire private care aide services to manage these routine chores for your loved one. Passionate home care aides will help keep your loved one's home clean, safe and livable.

Mobility Assistance 

Our home care aides understand the importance of physical activity and the challenges mobility restrictions can pose. Through compassion and expertise, a home care aide will help keep your loved one as active as possible to support mental and physical health.

Medication Reminders 

Even though chronic medications form part of a daily routine, it's fairly common to forget. Unfortunately, skipping doses can have devastating health consequences. A devoted home care aide will monitor medication routines and dosages, ensuring your loved one never misses a dose.

Shopping and Errands 

If your loved one's mobility is impaired, a home personal care service may perform errands like food shopping, banking, or picking up prescriptions.

Struggling with one's health can feel lonely and isolating. Companionship is vital to your loved one's overall health and well-being.
