In-home personal care is designed to assist with “hands on” care, which includes bathing, toileting, ambulating, grooming, dressing and more. This level of in-home health care can be difficult for family members to assist withwhile maintaining relationships and personal boundaries.. In-home personal care provides clients with the assistance they need to stay independent and safe within their own home.
TenderCare Services refers the most experienced, reliable and professional in-home CNA and HHA caregivers that the Treasure Coast and Palm Beach have to offer. Because of the hands on nature of personal care, it can only be completed by a CNA or HHA; TenderCare Services thoroughly verify all licenses and credentials as part of their screening procedure.
CNA and HHA Caregiverss provide a wide range of services:
- Bath visits for help bathing/showering and with personal hygiene
- Toileting assistance
- Grooming and dressing assistance
- Ambulating and range of motion exercise assistance
- Assistance with medical aids, such as wheelchairs, walkers, canes, shower chairs etc
- Catheter Care and Ostomy Care
- Recording vital signs; pulse, blood pressure, respiration and temperature, as necessary
TenderCare Services refer CNA and HHA caregivers anywhere from 1-24 hours per day, for as many days as are requested, depending on each client’s desired level of care.
Below is just one example of a personal care schedule that we currently offer to numerous clients:
8:00am – 8:00pm: A CNA or HHA Caregiver spends 12 hours each day with the client. They will assist with morning and evening routines, including bathing, toileting, dressing and grooming. They will also prepare meals, transport the client to Dr’s appointments, grocery shopping, running errands etc as well as undertake some light housekeeping tasks.
Another example of personal care is a 1 hour bath visit each day. A CNA or HHA will visit the home of a client who may be able to do everything other than shower/bath alone. The caregiver can be scheduled to make these one hour bath visits as often as the client desires each week.
In-home personal care can be extremely flexible to suit each client’s needs. To help in assessing each client’s requirements, TenderCare Services will gladly have one of the owners schedule a free assessment visit to your home, with no obligation. This also allows us to get to know the client a little, which is a great help when it comes to finding a compatible caregiver.
