Elderly Home Care in Edgewater – Chicago

Elderly Care Services in Edgewater – Chicago

Our caregivers are dedicated to offering companionship and support, helping your elderly loved one maintain comfort in their own home. We will work closely with you and your loved one to develop a personalized care plan tailored to their unique needs, pairing them with a well-trained caregiver who is fully qualified to provide the necessary assistance.

When you contact Assisting Hands Chicago North for elderly care services, we will begin with an in-home consultation to assess your loved one’s care requirements. Following this, we create a customized care plan and match them with a caregiver suited to their specific needs.

We offer the following elderly home care services:

• Companionship: Our caregivers will become companions to your loved one while providing care. We will engage them in friendly conversation and create a personal connection with them.
• Personal care: We will ensure that the personal care needs of your loved ones are met and will help them with activities of daily living (ADLs) including eating, transferring, bathing, and other personal hygiene tasks.
• Preventing falls: If your loved one has a high risk of falls, we can help minimize this risk by helping them move through the home and making sure walkways are clear.
• Meal preparation: We will make sure your loved one gets regular meals as we will prepare meals that follow their dietary requirements.
• Light housekeeping: We will make sure your loved one’s home is clean by dusting, vacuuming, throwing out the garbage and taking care of other light housekeeping tasks.
• Transportation and errands: If your loved one is unable to drive, we will drive them where they need to go including doctor’s appointments, errands, or family functions.
• Respite care: Our respite care services can provide time off for family caregivers as our caregiver will take over at scheduled times. This will allow the family caregiver to take time off to rest and take care of personal matters.
• Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care: For seniors with Alzheimer’s or dementia, home care can be immensely beneficial. We offer comprehensive personal care services tailored to individuals with dementia, using positive reinforcement techniques to address and manage common behaviors effectively.
• Live-in and 24-hour care: We provide dedicated care for seniors who require constant attention and supervision, including live-in and 24-hour care options. Live-in care involves a caregiver residing in the home and assisting your loved one, but they need a place to sleep at night. In contrast, 24-hour care involves a team of caregivers rotating shifts to ensure that someone is always awake and ready to assist your loved one at any time.
• Overnight care: If you’re uncertain about leaving your loved one alone at night, overnight care services may be the solution. A caregiver will arrive at your loved one’s home in the evening and remain alert throughout the night to provide assistance if needed. They don’t require a sleeping space, as they stay awake the entire time.
• Post-hospitalization care: We provide compassionate care for your loved one following surgery or illness. Our caregivers ensure they adhere to discharge instructions, get adequate rest, and take their medications.
