Home Health Care Services in Chicago, IL

Assisting Hands Home Care North Chicago provides complete home health services to help seniors and adults who need care and assistance in their homes in Chicago, IL. We will take the time to understand each individual’s unique care needs and our licensed caregivers will provide effective care so they can live safely in their homes.

An increasing number of elderly individuals are opting to stay in their own homes instead of moving to an assisted living facility or nursing home. This is because they are reluctant to leave their familiar surroundings and forfeit their independence and would rather stay in the familiar environment of their home.

Sometimes family members can step in and provide help for seniors living at home, but when the responsibility of caring for a loved one becomes overwhelming, it helps to work with a home care agency. At Assisting Hands Home Care, we offer non-medical home health care services to help seniors and individuals with disabilities maintain their preferred lifestyle.

Home Health Care Services in Chicago, IL

Assisting Hands Home Care helps seniors and adults who need care and assistance to live safely at home with our in-home health care services in Chicago, IL, and the northside neighborhoods. We start with a careful assessment of the care needs of your loved ones so we can create a care plan that best accommodates their needs. They are then paired with a licensed caregiver who understands their needs and will ensure that they receive quality, compassionate care.

We understand that seniors and adults who require daily assistance deserve the best care possible. Our non-medical home care services include help with activities of daily living (ADLs) like bathing, dressing, and other personal hygiene activities, as well as tasks around the home. Each of our caregivers is licensed, bonded, and insured and has passed a background check so you can trust them to provide effective care for your loved ones.

Our in-home care services can include the following:

• Personal care and hygiene: Our caregivers will assist your loved ones with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as toileting, transferring, eating, bathing, dressing, and other personal hygiene activities.
• Coordination of care: We can help you coordinate and manage the care of your loved ones by incorporating recommendations from their doctors into our care plan, coordinating doctor appointments and other services needed including medical equipment and home modifications, and providing transportation to appointments.
• Companionship: Our caregivers will go beyond simply providing care for your loved ones and be their companion as well. We build personal relationships with those in our care through friendly conversations and fun activities and outings.
• Meal preparation: We can help prepare meals for seniors and adults who do not cook. This includes preparing and serving meals that follow their dietary restrictions and cleaning up after.
• Transportation and errands: If your loved ones cannot drive, we can provide transportation to help them visit family and get to doctor appointments. We can also help with grocery shopping and other important errands.
• Alzheimer’s and dementia care: Seniors suffering from Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia need consistent care and they benefit from receiving care in the familiar environment of their home. Our caregivers will ensure that those affected by dementia get the personal care and assistance they need, and we can help stabilize their moods by reacting to common dementia behaviors with positive reinforcement.
• Overnight care: Some seniors and adults should not be left home alone at night in case they need assistance or an emergency occurs. With our overnight care services, our caregiver will arrive in the evening to help them get to bed and stay awake during the night to provide assistance and respond to emergencies.
• Respite care: Family members who take on caregiving responsibilities for their loved ones need time away from caregiving to rest and handle their personal matters. With our respite care services, one of our caregivers will take over providing care at scheduled times to relieve the family caregiver.
• After-surgery care: If you have a loved one returning home from surgery, we can provide care to help them recover. Our caregiver will provide personal care and assistance and medication reminders while making sure that your loved ones follow their discharge instructions and get enough rest to recover.
• Live-in and 24-hour care: We can help seniors and adults who need constant care with our live-in and 24-hour care services. Our live-in services involve a caregiver living at the home with your loved ones and providing care as needed, but they will need time to sleep at night. With our 24-hour care services, multiple caregivers will rotate shifts in a 24-hour period, so someone is always awake in the home to provide care.
• Senior care: Our skilled caregivers assist with daily activities such as meal preparation, medication reminders, personal hygiene, and mobility. We offer flexible care options tailored to individual needs, including companionship and specialized care for those with chronic conditions.
