Helping Seniors Maintain Independence with Personal Care in Greater Milwaukee, WI and Surrounding Areas
Being able to complete activities for daily living (ADL’s) is crucial towards remaining independent at home. However, 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. Whether it’s help with dressing, grooming, or meal preparation, our team is there to support your senior loved one and help them maintain their independence.
Hygiene and Mental Health
Tasks that help seniors and adults maintain their hygiene are essential in reducing the risk of illness and maintaining mental health. This includes assistance with brushing teeth, bathing, or bathrooming (whether that means assisting them to the bathroom or helping them while they are in bed). At Home Helpers, it is our goal to make this experience as comfortable and safe as possible. Our personal care assistants prioritize preserving the client’s dignity and maintaining positive relationships within the family, while also putting the client in control so they don’t feel like they are losing their independence.
Keeping Seniors Active and Mobile
Movement is important for your 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 to do the 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.
Direct Link® Monitoring Services
In addition to personal care services, Home Helpers also offers Direct Link® monitoring services that can help detect falls and contact emergency services when needed. With this technology, you can have peace of mind knowing that your senior loved one is always connected to help if needed.
