What is Non-Medical In-Home Senior Care?
Our assistance in-home care provides an essential service to seniors. Unlike medical care, which focuses on health treatments and procedures, non-medical care supports daily activities and companionship to ensure a high quality of life.
Non-medical care gives families peace of mind by equipping seniors with the independence they desire and the support they need to live a safe and active life at home. Whether you or your senior loved one needs help only a few hours a week, or full-time non-medical care, A Place At Home – Westwood provides personalized care plans to meet your senior’s unique needs.
Types of In-Home Care
A Place At Home – Westwood offers four types of in-home care services:
Companion Care
Socializing combats loneliness and nurtures a positive outlook. Our caregivers engage with seniors to foster their hobbies, provide conversation, help read emails, and more.
Lifestyle Care
We can assist with grocery shopping and meal prep, and provide light housekeeping, such as laundry, and garbage removal. Our caregivers also manage transportation for doctor’s appointments and running errands.
Personal Care
One in four seniors falls each year, and 80% of these accidents happen in the bathroom. A fear of falling prompts many adults to limit activity, which can affect their physical well-being. A Place At Home’s assistance in-home care helps seniors with bathing and grooming to stop falls in their tracks. Walking assistance and home safety monitoring by our caregivers help seniors stay active and prevent serious injuries.
Medication Administration
The average senior citizen has more than four prescriptions for medication from their doctor. Keeping track of medication can be challenging. Our in-home care providers can handle healthcare navigation and medication management to ensure seniors take their medicine on time, following doctors’ guidelines.
