Understanding Personal Care
Personal care is a crucial component of non-medical home care, focusing on aiding older adults with their day-to-day activities. Our compassionate caregivers provide assistance with tasks such as:
- Dressing
- Personal grooming
- Bathing
- Toileting
- Mobility and transfers
Additionally, our caregivers can assist with various other activities, including running errands, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and medication reminders. These comprehensive services are collectively aimed at ensuring your loved one's safety, comfort, and overall well-being.
Companion Care vs. Personal Care
While both personal care and companion care offer emotional support and companionship, they serve different purposes. Personal care is more hands-on and is ideal for those requiring direct physical assistance, especially if they have chronic health conditions or physical disabilities. On the other hand, companion care focuses on providing assistance with errands and light housekeeping, but it does not include help with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) or tasks that demand physical assistance.
Choosing the right type of care depends on your loved one's specific needs. Care Remedy Inc recommends personal care services when direct physical assistance is required or when dealing with conditions like post-stroke deficits or dementia. If your loved one does not require this level of assistance, companion care may be a more suitable choice.
