Inform your loved one that you are thinking about hiring a personal care assistant. The decision to work with a home care provider can be a sensitive, emotionally charged issue, and it may be met with opposition. Listen to your loved one's concerns and opinions if they oppose the idea, and make it clear that your top priority is their health and well-being.
Consider any specific in-home care requirements. When is he or she most likely to require assistance? What are the most difficult tasks? Examine your financial situation beforehand to determine how much to budget for in-home senior care. Bring a list of questions and concerns to discuss during the consultation.
What We Often Discuss During Consultations
At Visiting Angels Dallas, our personal care assistants are skilled at putting seniors and family caregivers at ease, especially when discussing sensitive topics like personal hygiene and incontinence care.
Topics we cover might include:
- Personal Care: Meal planning and preparation, light housekeeping, errands and transportation to appointments, mobility assistance, medication reminders, and personal hygiene (bathing, dressing, toileting)
- Social Care: Our caregivers help learn how to use modern technology such as email, search engines, and video chat programs to stay in touch with friends and family
- Memory Care: help with managing symptoms of dementia, assistance with fall prevention, wandering prevention, and more
Free home safety and fall-risk assessments are also included in our in-home consultations. We'll look into your loved one's specific safety requirements. Your personal care assistant will address any concerns about caregiver qualifications, safety, oversight, emergency procedures, and other issues.
Creating Your Unique Care Plan
Your Visiting Angels Dallas care coordinator will work with you to create a comprehensive care plan tailored to your loved one's needs. The plan will include a schedule and a description of specific activities and tasks that will necessitate the assistance of a caregiver. Your care coordinator will then pair your loved one with a caregiver who is a good fit. You can be sure of a good match with our Select Your Caregiver program. However, if you feel the match isn't quite right, you can request a different caregiver at any time, for any reason.
In-Home Senior Care Can Begin Immediately
