Personal Care in Greenfield
Your loved one may feel that living at home is essential to their well-being. However, if their mobility is limited or they are dealing with significant issues related to a chronic condition, you may not know how they can stay safe on their own at home. Partnering with a personal care provider from Visiting Angels® Greenfield can make all the difference in your loved one's safety and quality of life, allowing them to remain where they choose while maintaining the lifestyle they prefer.
What is Personal Care?
Personal care, which is sometimes used as a synonym for the term "private duty care," is a category of senior care designed for those who need extra support with activities of daily living. Activities of daily living (ADLs) include essential tasks that must be done on a regular basis for the senior to maintain their quality of life. Examples of ADLs that our caregivers assist with are taking a shower, dressing, using the restroom, and other tasks that demand a significant level of balance and mobility.
Of course, our personal caregivers at Visiting Angels Greenfield don't only offer physical support with ADLs. They can also assist care recipients in the following manner:
- Giving reminders about prescription medication schedules
- Helping with transport and attending appointments
- Doing the grocery shopping and taking care of errands
- Providing companionship and caring conversation
- Conducting everyday chores in the home
- Preparing healthy meals and making meal plans
One of the more important things to remember when thinking about care is how it differs from companion care. Both of these care types cover much of the same needs, but personal care goes a step beyond through its inclusion of respectful physical support with ADLs. If you're unsure of which of these care categories suits your loved one's current circumstances, don't worry. We will provide you with more in-depth information while making our professional recommendations during a consultation offered free of charge and with no obligations attached.
