Cancer Care Palatine, IL

Whether it be on a day-to-day scale or in the long-term picture, there are severe implications when a loved one has been diagnosed with cancer. Our caregivers are determined to lessen the burden for affected families with our cancer recovery and support services.

Cancer treatments can come with many severe negative side effects, and cancer patients may require medical services seemingly at random. It is helpful to have someone in the home who can provide care at all times. Such a task is difficult for many family members, because they have their own lives and responsibilities. But this is where we come in.

Cancer Support and In-Home Care During Treatment and Recovery

For professional cancer care services in Palatine, IL or the surrounding areas, contact Assisting Hands Home Care at (847) 448-0844.

Our trained and qualified caregivers can assist cancer patients. We know it can be stressful for the cancer patient and his/her family, and we provide home care services to help as much as possible. We start by developing relationships in order to establish trust, which extends to better overall care and companionship. From there, we help with everything the individual needs assistance with, including moral support and care during treatments and recovery. Common treatments include the following:

• Chemotherapy
• Radiation
• Surgery

Following such treatments, many side effects are possible: anemia, infections, nausea, pain, and more. But our caregivers are prepared will help when needed. We are aware that cancer can make it very difficult — or even impossible — for patients with cancer to care for themselves, so our caretakers will also assist with general tasks throughout the day.

Variety of Services Available

Our cancer care professionals communicate with cancer patients and their family to figure out what non-medical services are necessary. We can help with the following tasks and more:

• Care management (scheduling appointments, picking up prescriptions, checking that medications are taken, and more)
• Changing clothes
• Meal preparation
• Moderate housekeeping help
• Morning and night preparation
• Personal hygiene (bathing, grooming, using the bathroom)
• Post-treatment care
• Transportation to and from doctor’s appointments
