On June 6, 2024, people around the world gathered at events to commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day, in Normandy, France, whose historic battle marked the beginning of the end of World War II, and the liberation of France and Europe from the grips of Adolf Hitler and Nazism.

On that fateful day in 1944, soldiers from around the globe gathered in Normandy and fought for our allies’ freedom, democracy, and independence. The generation that fought 80 years ago fades more each year. Still, the veterans of WWII who were able to attend events and celebrations surrounding this special anniversary knew it would likely be the last opportunity to do so.

In the spirit of the 80th anniversary of D-Day and America’s Independence Day, July 4th, I humbly reflect on the many ways Home Helpers® assists seniors and veterans in West Pasco and North Pinellas Counties to preserve their independence and make life easier.

Some of the in-home care services our award-winning team provides include but are not limited to:

• Companion care – Companion care is a gift to seniors who live alone, to keep their minds engaged through conversation, games, and activities, and keep them socially connected, as much as possible.
• Homemaker services – Tasks like laundry and light housework help keep the home safe and clean. Homemaker services can also include running errands, like grocery shopping, pharmacy pick-ups, and more.
• Personal care – Personal care involves paying attention to hygiene, like bathing, hair care, dressing, and toileting which are vital activities of daily living to keep seniors healthy, happy, and independent at home.
• Nutritional meal planning and preparation – Grocery shopping and meal preparation may be too difficult for seniors, especially if they have physical or mental conditions.
• Alzheimer’s and dementia care – Alzheimer’s and dementia. care eases the burden on family members through customized home health services to ensure a higher quality of life and more peace of mind for you, your loved one, and your family.
• Respite care – Respite care is critical for family and private caregivers to allow them the time needed for their own physical and mental wellness.
• Specialized care services – Along with Alzheimer’s and dementia care, specialized care services include recuperative care, support for stroke recovery, and veterans care.
• Transportation Assistance – For aging adults who have retired from driving or are no longer able to safely drive themselves, our caregivers provide transportation to and from doctor appointments, trips to the hair salon or barber shop, support group meetings, social outings, the grocery store, pharmacy, and almost anywhere they want to go.
• 24/7 monitoring and live-in care – 24-hour monitoring and shift care is available for those who would benefit from our Direct Link monitoring service to protect their safety, security, and independence when they live alone; or overnight assistance by a highly trained caregiver.
• Wellness calls – Wellness calls by our team ensure seniors are eating, exercising, staying hydrated, and taking their medications properly, just to name a few.

This is a short list of the home care services we offer at Home Helpers® for seniors and veterans in Pinellas and West Pasco counties.

A perfectly matched Home Helpers® caregiver can assist with all of these things and more to keep you or your special senior happy, healthy, safe, and independent.
