Personal Care Services for Seniors and Adults in Boulder, CO

Why Personal Care is Vital for Independent Living in Boulder, Broomfield, Louisville, CO and Surrounding Areas

Being able to complete activities for daily living (ADL’s) is crucial towards remaining independent at home. However, as we age, it can become more challenging to do these tasks on our own. Recognizing the need for this type of personal care and accepting it can be hard for seniors and adults, especially if it means threatening their independence. That’s why a Home Helpers personal care assistant is trained to provide these services with respect and courtesy to your loved one’s needs and feelings.

Assisting with Hygiene

Tasks that help seniors and adults maintain their hygiene are essential for reducing the risk of illness and maintaining mental health. This includes assistance with brushing teeth, bathing, or using the bathroom. Our goal at Home Helpers is to make this experience as comfortable and safe as possible. A personal care assistant does that by preserving the client’s dignity, rather than impacting relationships within the family, and putting the client in control so they don’t feel like they are losing their independence.

Promoting Movement and Independence

Movement is crucial for a senior’s health. It helps with blood flow and muscle stiffness, which can in turn reduce the risk of falling. It also aids their quality of life as mobility fosters a sense of independence and allows seniors to continue doing activities they love. A personal care assistant can help by assisting seniors as they move from room to room, going on walks, and aiding them when it comes to navigating tricky areas such as stairs. They can also provide recommendations on how to best set up the home for your senior’s level of mobility.
