At Essence Home Care, we tailor our Companion Care services to fit the specific needs of each individual. Whether it's engaging in favorite activities or helping with everyday tasks, our caregivers provide compassionate and personalized care. Here’s what we offer:
Live-In Care: Personalized Support at Home
Live-in care offers comprehensive support and companionship within the familiar comfort of your own home. Unlike traditional care services, a dedicated caregiver resides with you full-time, providing personalized assistance tailored to your specific needs.
What is Live in Care in Home Care?
Key benefits of live-in care include:
-
24/7 support: Continuous assistance for daily living activities, medication management, and personal care.
-
Companionship: Enjoy the comfort of having someone by your side, reducing feelings of isolation.
-
Independence: Maintain your autonomy while receiving the necessary support to live safely and comfortably.
-
Flexibility: Care plans are customized to your unique needs and preferences, ensuring a personalized approach.
By choosing live-in care, you prioritize your well-being and maintain a high quality of life in the familiar surroundings of your own home.
When your loved one requires more care than you can provide, a nursing home is often considered. However, selecting the right facility and waiting for a bed can be time-consuming and complex.
With Live-In Care, you can choose carers who match your loved one’s needs and preferences immediately. There are no waiting lists, so caregiving—and your peace of mind—can begin right away.
Immediate Care
Maintaining a clean and tidy home is crucial for preventing accidents and enhancing overall well-being. Our caregivers assist with light housekeeping tasks, including bed making, vacuuming, mopping, sweeping, and dusting. They also ensure that bathrooms and kitchens are thoroughly cleaned, dishes are washed, and rooms are kept tidy. Additionally, our services extend to organizing closets, cleaning windows, and managing laundry duties such as washing, drying, ironing, and folding. This comprehensive housekeeping support helps create a comfortable and safe living environment for your loved one.
Stability And Consistency
Staying at home with Essence Home Care and a Home Care Package allows your loved one to remain connected to their local community, family, and friends.
Friends are more likely to visit you in the comfort and privacy of their own home rather than a facility where they might encounter unfamiliar or unsettling behavior. This more personal and inviting setting encourages frequent visits, enhancing their social interactions and overall well-being.
Stay Connected With Friends & Family
