What personal care includes
Personal care is hands-on help with daily routines. Every plan is different, and we build it around what your loved one needs and prefers.
- Bathing, showering and washing
- Dressing and grooming
- Toileting and continence care
- Moving around the home and getting in and out of bed or a chair
- Getting ready in the morning and settling in at night
Who it helps
Personal care is often the first kind of help families ask for. It suits seniors who want to stay at home, people who are recovering after illness or surgery, and adults living with a disability.
If you are not sure what kind of help is needed, call us. We will talk it through with you and suggest a starting point.
Care that respects the person
Accepting help with personal tasks can feel uncomfortable. We take time to learn your loved one's routines and preferences, explain what we are doing, and keep their privacy and dignity first.
Personal care can be combined with companionship, skilled nursing care or respite care in one plan.
