In-Home Care Services

Quality Home Care in Des PlainesMany senior citizens prefer to age in place within their own homes instead of leaving their homes for a retirement home or care facility.  However, many seniors may find living at home alone to be more difficult as they get older.  At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide complete in-home care services for senior citizens and people with disabilities in Des Plaines, IL.  Our insured and highly trained caregivers can provide a variety of home care services such as personal assistance, meal preparation, light housekeeping, transportation, and companionship to help senior citizens age safely and comfortably in their own homes.

Respite Care Services

There are many situations in which a family member acts as the informal caregiver for a senior citizen.  While this arrangement has several benefits, it can be very difficult on the family member providing care.  Family caregivers often devote so much time caring for their loved one that they may have difficulty taking care of their own personal business.  Assisting Hands Home Care provides relief for family caregivers in Des Plaines, IL with our respite care services.  We can schedule specific times for our caregivers to come in while you take a break to tend to your personal business.

Senior Care / Elderly Care

As senior citizens age in their homes, they may require assistance for a number of reasons.  Many seniors cannot handle certain activities like driving or housekeeping, and they may need help with personal hygiene and medication reminders.  Another important aspect that might be lacking from their lives is companionship.  At Assisting Hands Home Care, we are committed to providing excellent elderly care services for senior citizens in Des Plaines, IL.  Our highly trained caregivers can provide personal assistance, light housekeeping, and transportation as well as fall prevention and dementia care.

Hospice Care Services

When a loved one is diagnosed with a terminal illness or limited life expectancy, it can put unbelievable stress on a family.  Not only do you have to accept this difficult news, but also make care plans and end of life arrangements for your loved one.  At Assisting Hands Home Care, we can help provide care for your loved ones with limited life expectancy or a terminal illness with our hospice care services in Des Plaines, IL.  We will work with you to create a hospice care plan that includes non-medical assistance such as personal care and medication reminders.  Our caregivers will ensure that your loved ones remain comfortable in their homes and pass peacefully and with dignity.

Overnight Caregivers

When a family member is responsible for providing care for a loved one, the night time can be difficult.  At this point both the caregiver and the patient are trying to sleep which makes it a very bad time for an emergency to occur.  Even if the caregiver wakes up for an emergency situation, they will not be as quick and alert as they would be during the day.  Normal occurrences such as providing assistance with bathroom use can cause a family caregiver to get less sleep, making them less sharp during the day.  At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide overnight care in Des Plaines, IL to help family caregivers provide effective daily care for their loved ones.  Our overnight caregivers will stay awake through the night so that they are ready to respond to emergencies and assist with normal activities such as taking medications or bathroom use.

Live in Care Services

If an elderly or disabled relative needs round-the-clock care, it can be difficult for a family to provide this on their own.  Family caregivers are typically under a lot of stress and it is impossible for them to provide attentive care 24 hours a day.  If your loved ones in Des Plaines, IL need someone who is ready to assist them 24 hours a day, Assisting Hands Home Care can help.  We provide live in care services in which we will have one of our caregivers live in the home of your loved one to provide care 24 hours a day.  We will assign two caregivers for your loved ones that take turns working 12-hour shifts, ensuring that there is someone there to provide care 24 hours a day.

Post-Operative Care

The recovery after surgery is tough, whether it was a minor procedure or major operation.  Those recovering from surgery often experience pain that makes it difficult to do many activities and it may take a while before they regain their strength.  Assisting Hands Home Care provides post-operative care services to help those in Des Plaines, IL who need assistance after surgery.  We can take care of daily activities such as light housekeeping, meal preparation, and errands as well as medication reminders and general care.

Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care

Senior citizens that suffer from Alzheimer’s disease or dementia need consistent care because of the challenges these conditions create.  Memory loss is the main symptom, but this leads to other challenges such as confusion, aimless wandering, agitation, and incontinence.  Our caregivers at Assisting Hands Home Care are highly trained to provide Alzheimer’s and dementia care in Des Plaines, IL.  We provide memory care by engaging in games and conversation to stimulate their minds, and we can also help with incontinence, bathing, meal preparation, and other challenges.

Non-Medical Home Health Care

At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide non-medical home health care services in Des Plaines, IL to help senior citizens, adults with disabilities and medical conditions, hospice patients, people recovering from surgery, new mothers, and expectant mothers with high risk pregnancy.  You can trust our carefully screened caregivers to meet the unique needs of each individual client, and we will create a schedule that works best for you.  Our non-medical home health care services include help with personal activities, meal preparation, and light housekeeping, but do not include medical activities such as changing bandages or giving injections.
