Day-to-Day Help with Our Personal Care Services
Traditionally, people who reach their golden years have sought out daily care either in an assisted living community or a nursing home when living alone had become too difficult.
However, a new generation of senior citizens has been choosing to age in place instead of leaving their homes, leading to a rise in in-home health care services available for seniors.
When seniors choose to age in their homes, they are choosing a more independent life in which they have more control over their daily activities.
Yet, certain daily activities including various chores and even personal activities like getting dressed and taking care of personal hygiene, can become much more difficult with age.
At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide in-home health care services to help senior citizens in Downers Grove, IL comfortably age in place.
