The decision is based on the senior's needs and the family's availability. When a family does not have a member available to be a full-time caregiver, it may be necessary to hire a home care caregiver. Assisting Hands Home Care caregivers are licensed to provide personal care assistance, companionship, and activities of daily living. Additionally, they are trained to provide specialized care for the elderly with Dementia, Alzheimer's, disabilities, and more.
Caregivers play an essential role in uplifting mental health and combating depression in the elderly by encouraging social activities, hobbies, and connections with friends and family.

We ensure that meals are both delicious and compliant with medical recommendations, promoting a satisfying dining experience while adhering to doctors' instructions.
