Seniors With Mobility Limitations
Older adults who can no longer safely bathe, dress, or move around the home without risk of falls.
Personal care provides seniors and individuals with disabilities the support they need to live independently and with dignity.
Personal care services provide direct, hands-on assistance with Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) — the essential tasks that help a person maintain their hygiene, health, and independence at home.
When these daily tasks become difficult or unsafe to do alone, a personal care aide provides the exact level of help needed — doing only what is necessary, always preserving your loved one's privacy and dignity.
Personal care is covered under most Medicaid plans and is one of the most requested services we provide.
All services are adapted to your loved one's unique needs, comfort level, and medical requirements.
Safe, assisted bathing, showering, or bed baths — preserving privacy and promoting skin health and hygiene.
Help selecting appropriate clothing, getting dressed, hair brushing, nail care, and maintaining overall personal presentation and comfort.
