The Importance of Wellness Calls in Elder Home Care Services

Connect with Others for a Better Quality of Life

Wellness calls are an essential part of elder home care services offered by Home Helpers® Home Care of Southlake-Denton-Gainesville, TX. We understand that the need to connect with others is a natural and important aspect of maintaining a good quality of life. That’s why our team prioritizes Wellness Calls to provide much-needed companionship or reminders for loved ones. These calls can happen as often as you or your loved one would like and are an integral part of our comprehensive care services.

Wellness calls can be used for any of the following reasons:

• Morning or evening check-in to ensure your loved one is doing well
• Medication reminders to help them stay on track with their prescribed medications
• Hydration reminders to ensure they are drinking enough water
• Meal reminders to make sure they are getting proper nutrition
• Exercise reminders to encourage physical activity and movement
• Companionship – a simple hello and chat to brighten their day

In the event that a phone call goes unanswered, our team at Home Helpers has a customized response plan in place. We will work with you to determine the best course of action, including how many times to try and call and how to notify family members. This closed-loop process is designed to ensure the best possible care and safety for your loved one. If the situation is not urgent, simply let us know and we will make a note of the missed call. At Home Helpers, we are proud to offer our Cared-4 program, which addresses all the major factors that impact independence. Our elder home care services include Personal Care & Companionship, Nutrition and Wellbeing, and Safety. We understand that every individual has unique needs, which is why we offer a free In-Home Care Assessment to learn more about your loved one and create a custom Care Plan tailored to their specific requirements.
