Damey and I hope you all had a safe, fun, and festive Independence Day, on July 4th! We always enjoy celebrating this commemorative day with our family, friends, and furbabies.

Unfortunately, many seniors living alone in the Canton, Ohio area, or those with physical or mental health conditions, were unable to celebrate with loved ones, and most likely, spent the holiday indoors and isolated.

Fortunately, for our senior clients at Home Helpers, our compassionate caregivers helped make Independence Day a much more celebratory occasion.

Our primary goal at Home Helpers is to protect and support senior independence. Our team of caregivers is trained and highly skilled to assist seniors in many ways to make life easier, so they remain independent in their homes where they are most comfortable for as long as possible.

The home care services for seniors we provide include but are not limited to:

24-Hour Monitoring – Whether it’s a monitoring service for 24/7 access to an emergency call center or 24-hour elder care through caregiving shifts or live-in care, Home Helpers is proud to provide exactly what you need when you need it.

• Monitoring Services – Home Helpers offers Direct Link® senior monitoring systems that provide peace of mind for seniors and their families. With this state-of-the-art technology and 24/7 monitoring, you or your loved one can feel safe and independent wherever they call home.

Care and Companionship – We understand the importance of helping seniors maintain their independence while ensuring their safety and well-being. Our custom care plans are tailored to include the services necessary.

• 24-Hour Home Care – With our 24-hour caregiving services seniors won’t have to be afraid they won’t have the help they need. Whether daily assistance is needed for normal tasks or more attentive care with live-in services, we provide the most compassionate and skilled care available.
• Companion Care – Our caregivers understand how important it is that seniors stay physically active and mentally stimulated. As companions, they are skilled at incorporating mentally stimulating tasks and providing seniors with socialization to thrive.
• Homemaker Services – We offer homemaker services that help create a safe, clean, and comfortable home environment so seniors can live independently at home, with more confidence and security.
• Personal Care – Sometimes our senior loved ones need help with activities of daily living like personal hygiene and basic nutrition to stay in their homes living enriched, engaged, and independent lives. Home Helpers makes personal care easier.

Nutrition and Well-Being – Eating healthy foods is one of the most important factors in maintaining senior independence and well-being. Our Caregiver Meal Prep involves proper planning with dietary concerns in mind, grocery shopping, and preparing nutritious meals and snacks.

Specialized Care – Home Helpers is a proud member of Home Care Association of America, and we are a Home Care Pulse-endorsed national provider. Our caregivers undergo thorough background checks and are skillfully trained to ensure the highest level of care for seniors with special needs.

• Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care – We have caregivers who are certified in Alzheimer’s care through our partnership with the National Certification Board for Alzheimer’s Care (NCBAC), so they can provide specialized care for seniors suffering from some form of dementia.
• Parkinson’s Care – Home Helpers can help seniors with Parkinson’s disease and their families adjust to life with the disease and provide the necessary assistance to preserve their independence and safety as the disease progresses.
• Recuperative Care – Our team of dedicated caregivers at Home Helpers helps seniors who have been injured, ill, or undergone surgery navigate the road to recovery. They understand the challenges recovery can present, so they make life easier so seniors recuperating can focus on getting better.
• Respite Care – Being a family or private caregiver can be very stressful. Respite care by a Home Helpers compassionate caregiver provides a necessary break for family and private caregivers to relax, rest, and recharge, while maintaining a loved one’s routine and care at home where they are most comfortable.
• Support for Stroke Recovery – Home Helpers caregivers are trained to assist aging adults who have suffered a stroke with activities of daily living, medication management, mobility support, and more, to ensure your loved one receives the personalized care they deserve to regain their independence and healthy quality of life.

Wellness Calls – Wellness calls provide much-needed companionship to seniors living alone in the Canton area and serve to offer important reminders for seniors to take their medications, stay hydrated, and eat nutritious meals. If seniors are unable to answer wellness calls, a secondary response plan can be put in place to ensure their safety and well-being.

This comprehensive list outlines the in-home care services Home Helpers provides, but you can believe we will go above and beyond to do whatever it takes to help our clients. That’s because we’re not just a home care agency. We’re your extended family when family can’t be there to make life easier.
