At Assisting Hands Home Care, we provide senior home care services to help seniors in Alsip, IL who have decided to age in place. We create tailored home care plans to accommodate the needs of your loved ones, and they will be cared for by our licensed caregivers.
While it was once more common for seniors to move to nursing homes or assisted living facilities when they needed care after retirement, more seniors now are choosing to age in place instead. Remaining at home in retirement allows seniors to live a more comfortable and independent life in familiar surroundings. However, many seniors may need some level of care to live at home as cognitive or physical limitations, illnesses, and chronic conditions can make it difficult for seniors to care for themselves. If family members are not able to provide the level of care their senior loved ones need, they can work with a home care agency like Assisting Hands Home Care.
