| | | Senior Care
| | | | When it comes to aging parents, it’s hard to know when safety and well-being become an issue. Unfortunately, repeatedly asking them questions about their ability to care for themselves can bring an element of conflict into your relationship. You know a retirement home is not the answer, but how can you make sure your aging parents get the care they need while maintaining a positive relationship with them? | | | People’s Care Private, In-Home Senior Care services provide the highest quality In-Home Senior Care in a flexible arrangement that changes as the need for care changes. Whether you need In-Home Senior Care around the clock, morning until evening, or merely a few hours several times a week, you can put your trust in People’s Care. Our expertly trained, professional Care Companions consider your loved one’s health and well being their number one priority. Comprehensive Care Assessment
Our Care Process begins with a complimentary, comprehensive in-home Care Assessment (a $500 value!) conducted by a Professional Geriatric Care Manager. The purpose of the Care Assessment is to fully understand your loved one’s physical, social and cognitive needs — as well as your own concerns. Individual Service Plan (ISP): A Roadmap to Care
As part of the comprehensive Care Assessment, your Professional Care Manager will provide you with an Individual Service Plan (ISP) that documents the support needed as well as measurable success metrics that we will work with you to achieve. The ISP focuses on your loved one’s health and well being, as well as his or her social and recreational needs, and can be customized to include the following: |  | | Homemaker Services - Companionship
- Social engagement
- Cooking
- Light housekeeping
- Laundry
- Shopping & errands
- Medication reminders
- Transportation
- Pet care
| Personal Care Services - Bathing
- Dressing
- Grooming
- Feeding
- Toileting
- Walking
- Exercise
- Transfer
| | | | Care Management | - Transport/accompany your loved one to doctor’s appointments
- Discuss lab results and other medical issues with the family
- Monitor and log health information, such as when medications are taken, vital signs, nutrition and exercise, if needed
- Monitor behavior, watching for trends and/or changes
- Provide resources and support to your family
- Provide 24-hour emergency contact
- Be the eyes and ears of you and other family members
| | | NOTE: All Care Management activities are performed or carefully supervised by your Professional Care Manager, who is a social worker or nurse. | | Continuous Monitoring by Your Professional Care Manager
When care services begin, your Professional Care Manager will match one or more of our expert Care Companions to your loved one’s specific health, cognitive and social needs. Your Professional Care Manager will also fully prepare the Care Companion with instructions on how to implement the written ISP. Care Companions are supervised and monitored by your Care Manager, including unannounced visits and ongoing client-specific training. While a primary caregiver will be assigned to your loved one to ensure consistency of care, we also assign back-up Care Companions as needed to guarantee that there are no gaps in the care provided. This team approach to staffing ensures a smooth transition and seamless care. |  | | | About People’s Care
