Avoid unnecessary risks in the bathroom and around the house. A regular bathroom features are not designed for seniors uses and can be a fall risk.

Reducing falls in the home is one of the top safety concerns that seniors and their families face.
There are many benefits to having extra hands for mobility assistance around the house, including:
- Less risk with trained help and a steady arm
- Less temptation to skip out on housekeeping tasks or personal hygiene, like getting to the bathroom to bathe or getting around the kitchen for dinner
- Companionship to help with chores not only makes tasks easier to complete, but also brings comfort just in having someone to talk to and socialize
- As we age, moving around the house can get more difficult. One of our top priorities is helping our clients move around their homes comfortably. This may include getting in and out of bed, chairs, and wheelchairs.
- Transferring and Positioning. It can also lower the risk of falls and injuries.

Toileting and Incontinence Care
Is a sensitive nature of toileting and incontinence care for our clients. Our caregivers offer compassionate, dignified help with these personal aspects of daily living. A big part of dealing with incontinence care is simply remaining clean and comfortable.
Incontinence can be a difficult issue for a senior to discuss. If the senior or a loved one is not willing to ask for help, hygiene issues can arise and may compound over time.
Senior Nutrition & Meal Prep
Our caregivers can support physician-prescribed nutrition and diet plans. We also provide assistance with grocery shopping and meal preparation that meets nutritional needs or accommodates special dietary restrictions. We keep our eyes on all body signs to help the medical team work to improve them health.
It is common for seniors to be on a restricted diet for many reasons. A doctor or a nutritionist may include special dietary needs in a wellness plan, which can include limits on what can be consumed, or in what quantities.
Common situations include:
- Different medications can have food restrictions or sensitivities.
- Timing of medication doses can be a critical part of a care plan, especially if a senior is dealing with physical limitations or memory loss.
- Proper nutrition can be an issue for seniors living alone.
- Moving around the kitchen and lifting pots and pans may be harder than it once was, and as a result, healthier home-cooked meals are challenging. Instead, those meals may be substituted with fast food, packaged food, or simply less calorie consumption. It’s especially important for the elderly to consume enough calories and the right nutrients to avoid obesity, excessive weight loss, and dehydration.
- Dehydration can lead to a number of serious problems if left unchecked. It continues to be one of the most frequent causes of hospitalization among older adults. Them are far way to take eight 8 ounce glasses as considered the standard when it comes to proper daily intake.
