How Our Home Care Aides Can Help Seniors in Dallas, TX Maintain Their Personal Hygiene

The inability to properly maintain hygiene can have a huge effect on your loved one’s dignity and significantly lower their self-esteem. Not to mention that a number of health issues can stem from poor hygiene, such as offensive odors, rashes, skin breakdowns and even mental health issues like depression. However, these problems are all easily addressed with an adequate care plan in place.

A professional home care aide from Visiting Angels Dallas can help with:

• Bathing
• Grooming
• Dressing/undressing and preparing for bed
• Oral care, including providing transportation to the Dallas VA Medical Center for teeth cleanings, dental screenings and other services for elderly veterans
• Mobility
• Transferring and positioning
• Toileting and incontinence

While family caregivers can help with most of these routines, these hygiene tasks are best performed by a trained professional. This is especially true for bathing assistance. Furthermore, from our experience, most seniors prefer to receive this type of intimate assistance from a professional in-home caregiver rather than from a person they know their entire life.
