Post-Operative Care
Recovering from any type of surgery can be difficult, but especially for seniors. They may need temporary assistance with daily activities or transportation, either on a live-in basis or by having someone stop by a few times a week. Assisting Hands Home Care can help seniors in Aventura, FL who are recovering from surgeries and need extra assistance. Our caregivers can provide transportation to appointments or shopping, pick up prescriptions, assist with housework and paperwork, and help with other things that become more difficult after surgery.
Overnight Care
Providing complete care for elderly or disabled relatives is a challenging task that takes a lot of devotion. This can make it tough for family caregivers to provide adequate care at night when they should also be resting. The best way to ensure that your loved ones are cared for at night is to hire an overnight caregiver. Assisting Hands Home Care provides overnight care services in Aventura, FL to help take care of seniors and adults with disabilities at night. Our overnight care services include help getting ready for bed and assistance throughout the night to help your loved ones use the restroom and to respond to any emergencies.
Live-In Care Services
Providing care for an elderly family member is a demanding job, especially if your loved one needs someone present 24 hours a day. It can be stressful for family caregivers to leave their loved ones or even try to get some sleep knowing they may be needed at any time. At Assisting Hands Home Care, we can help with our live-in care services in Aventura, FL. Our live-in caregiver will be there 24 hours a day to provide any care needed.
Respite Care
When an older relative needs assistance, a family member is usually the first one who pitches in to help. In many cases, this can work for a while, but the demands of work, family, and other obligations can lead to stress, fatigue, and no time to take care of personal needs. Assisting Hands Home Care offers high quality respite care for families in Aventura, FL who have a loved one who needs extra assistance. We work with the family to create a detailed plan so there are no lapses in care while they take time to take care of personal matters or just relax.
Personal Care & Companion Services
Day to day activities become more difficult for some people as they become older, such as bathing, housekeeping, transportation, or keeping track of medications. Assisting Hands Home Care helps people in Aventura, FL age in place by helping them with tasks around their homes and providing companionship so they won’t feel the need to move into an assisted living facility. We help seniors maintain the lives they enjoy by pursuing hobbies and social activities like club meetings and attending church.
Coordination of Care
At Assisting Hands Home Care, we make sure everyone is “in the loop” regarding a client’s care plan. We start with a detailed initial assessment to determine what services are needed; then we identify any available resources like VA benefits or Medicare. Only then do we create and implement a care plan that suits the individual and their physical, mental, and social needs. Family members and physicians are appraised of any changes to the client’s condition as needed.
Home Care Agency vs. Direct Hires
When searching for a caregiver for a loved one, it can be confusing to know which way to go. If you directly hire a caregiver, you are responsible for placing the ad, sifting through and interviewing candidates, checking references and credentials, doing payroll, managing sick and vacation time (including covering for emergencies), and dealing with personnel issues. When you work with an agency like Assisting Hands Home Care, we take care of all of this and more for you. All of our caregivers are carefully screened, bonded, insured, and trained in CPR and first aid before they ever enter a client’s home. We take care of any scheduling issues and send a qualified substitute if the regular caregiver is ill.
