Hourly, Daily or Overnight Care for Your Loved One from Assisting Hands
Many baby boomers are seen as independent and resilient, but as they age, many are forced to receive some sort of assistance in order to get through their days safely. Rather than moving into a retirement home, many seniors are opting to receive in-home care to meet their needs.
At Assisting Hands Home Care, we offer home health care services to seniors (as well as others in need) in the Downers Grove, IL, area in DuPage County.
Through these services, our caregivers provide essential assistance in the comfort of the client’s home. Whether you need a helping hand with housekeeping, preparing meals, transportation, or similar tasks, we will happily provide it.
Experienced Caregivers You Can Trust

Our caregivers are licensed, bonded, and insured to assist individuals with their non-medical care requirements.
For example, this means that we cannot change bandages or provide injections, but we can help with medication reminders, getting to and from the doctor’s office, and rehabilitation exercises.
Our caregivers are also trained in CPR and first aid and undergo a stringent screening process before being allowed to provide any care services to clients.
We are committed to providing high-quality care and companionship for your loved ones.
