Whether you’re recuperating from surgery, an accident, or dealing with aging, chronic illnesses, or disease processes, we know that it’s sometimes difficult to perform activities of daily living. Also known as ADLs, these activities include bathing and dressing, meal preparation, toileting, and continence care.
We at OptimumCare Home Care Services know that it can be tough to deal with some of these issues mentally and physically. No one wants to have to rely on someone else to help them perform such activities. However, there may come a time when you need a little extra help with bathroom assistance, including toileting or bathing, getting dressed in the morning, or for bed at night. You may have a catheter or ostomy bag that needs to be taken care of daily. We’re here to help.
Home health care aides at OptimumCare Home Care Services provide professional, courteous, and compassionate care for all your personal care needs. Such care is provided on an hourly basis (4-hour minimum) or 24 hours a day, based on need. Our home health care aides are well-versed in the use of assistive devices as well as methodologies that ensure optimal safety and security for our clients when it comes to personal care needs.
Reduce the risk of a loved one slipping in the bathtub or while trying to get to the toilet. Our experienced, certified nursing assistants and home health aides provide the safety you or a loved one needs getting into or out of the tub or shower enclosure. We provide either hands-on support or cued supervision, depending on the scenario.
Our home health care aides are also informed and knowledgeable regarding the necessity of senior nutrition. We’re able to help with meal planning and preparation. We also provide transportation to the grocery store and help with the preparation and storage of food. You or a loved one can plan and create nutritious meals for daily, weekly, or even months-long use, ensuring that you or your loved one is following dietary recommendations based on doctor’s orders or medical conditions regarding nutrition.
We understand that many seniors may feel hesitant to ask for help with daily personal care needs, but rest assured that the staff at OptimumCare Home Care Services treats every client with dignity and respect. Patient-centered care is the focus of every one of our services.
