Hearthside Senior Assistance
is the ideal solution for elderly or disabled individuals who want
to maintain their independence and dignity by continuing to live in
the comfort of their own homes. Our
Assistants make their lives easier by
performing many of the tasks which have become difficult.
Assistants
may provide a wide array of services, including:
• Driving and/or
accompanying the client to the physician when necessary
• Shopping and performing other household errands
• Reminding clients to take their medication
• Providing hygiene assistance
• Supervising ambulation and helping to prevent falls
• Taking care of all personal laundry and bed linens for the client
• Preparing and serving meals according to client's dietary needs
• Cleaning the bathroom and kitchen after use, including washing
dishes after meals and mopping the floor
• Making and changing the bed
• Cleaning the client's room, which includes dusting and vacuuming
• Providing respite for family caregivers
• Helping with correspondence to family and friends
• Providing socialization, friendship and support for the client
• Going on walks and encouraging and participating in stimulating
activities
Hearthside Senior Assistance
recognizes the fact that certain chronic conditions are more
common to seniors. Therefore, we provide special training to our
Assistants
on communicating with persons who have Alzheimer’s and related
Dementia, Hearing Loss and Aphasia, which ensures a higher level of
care for our clients. If nursing or full home healthcare services
become necessary, we can refer you to an appropriate home health
care agency.
