Supporting Independence with a Personal Care Assistant

As we age, completing daily tasks can become more challenging. However, being able to maintain independence at home is crucial for seniors and adults. Recognizing the need for personal care services and accepting assistance can be difficult, especially if it means giving up control. That’s why at Home Helpers® Home Care in Dothan, AL, our trained personal care assistants provide these services with respect and courtesy to your loved one’s needs and feelings.

 

Promoting Hygiene and Mental Health

Maintaining good hygiene is essential for reducing the risk of illness and maintaining mental health. Our personal care assistants are trained to assist with tasks such as brushing teeth, bathing, and using the bathroom. We understand the importance of preserving the client’s dignity and aim to make these experiences as comfortable and safe as possible. Our goal is to support your loved one’s independence without impacting relationships within the family.

 

Movement and Mobility for a Better Quality of Life

Movement is vital for a senior’s health, as it helps with blood flow and muscle stiffness. It also fosters a sense of independence and allows seniors to continue doing activities they love. Our personal care assistants can assist with mobility and provide recommendations on how to set up the home for your senior’s level of movement. Whether it’s going for a walk or navigating tricky areas like stairs, we are here to support your loved one’s mobility.
