Nine out of ten Americans 65 and older want to stay at home for as long as possible, and 80 percent think their current home is where they will always live. Working with a home care agency like My Home Helper can allow your loved one to receive the care they need while in the comfort of their own home while preserving their dignity and maintaining a good quality of life.
Professional caregivers enable your senior loved one to enjoy living independently longer. The services offered allow seniors to receive day-to-day help with the personal care they need and assistance with activities of daily living such as bathing, grooming, and medication reminders. Ultimately, this benefits you by keeping your loved one safe, healthy, engaged and active.
Home care services provide meaningful, one-on-one care that helps to build strong relationships between a My Home Helper caregiver and their clients. We match our caregivers’ experience, skills set, and personality to your loved one’s needs. Our service schedules are extremely flexible to ensure your senior receives the care they need, when they need it. The result is a consistent, working relationship so beneficial that our clients often consider their caregiver to be a part of their family.
If you are caregiving from a distance, working with an in-home care agency for your senior can help you to feel confident that your loved one is cared for when you can’t be there. Trained and qualified caregivers can assess safety risks and make simple corrections in the home to ensure your loved one is able to get around easily without the potential for injury. We are committed to providing your loved ones with increased care as their needs change to ensure their quality of life and your peace of mind.
Research shows that aging adults stay healthier with social interaction. Feelings of isolation are a major problem among aging Americans. A caregiver’s companionship can impact not only physical well-being, but emotional health as well. Our caregivers can become trusted friends for walks, reading, cards, games, movies, meals, and other social activities.
Falls are the number one cause of emergency room visits for people age 65 and over. They can easily happen when a senior is attempting a simple household task such as reaching for a high shelf or carrying something down the stairs. Hiring a caregiver to assist a loved one with these everyday tasks can help to prevent accidents that can potentially lead to serious injury.
My Home Helper enjoys an excellent reputation for service within our community and professional circles. We work with many local doctors, nurses, social workers, and other health care professionals who regularly refer their patients in need of help. We are experts in the home care field and value building strong relationships with our clients and their families.
