Personal Care and Assistance

 

Personal Care & Assistance

Considerate, private, respectful personal
care and assistance.

 

The small things count. A patient’s day at home can be made easier by a volunteer dropping by to help with cleaning and tidying, to have a chat, or just check-in and make sure everything is okay. Being able to call a registered nurse and ask a question is always beneficial; sometimes just knowing that an expert is always there with support and advice can reduce caregiver stress and help patients feel calmer, safer, and more comfortable.

Our qualified caregivers have the experience and compassion to provide assistance with everyday personal care tasks, such as:

  • Bathing (showers, baths, sponge baths, bed baths)
  • Personal hygiene/grooming (hair care, skin care, oral care, nail care)
  • Mobility (transfers, walking, range of motion exercises, light exercise)

We can also give the caregiver a hand with light housekeeping or just sitting quietly so the caregiver can run an errand.
