In home care for senior citizens and adults with disabilities
Seniors are often the most respected members of the family because of their experience and the sacrifices they made for their kids. So, it is normal for families to feel the need to take care of them in their later years.
While some family members have the time to be caregivers and help them around the house, it can be difficult to juggle the responsibilities of work, caregiving, and having personal time for themselves. In this case, an additional caregiver is needed to provide elderly care and allow the senior to stay safe in their own home.
At Assisting Hands Home Care, our elderly care services can help seniors maintain their independence and age in place in Illinois or Wisconsin. Our professionals will begin by meeting you and your loved one for a free consultation, assessing their needs. We will then set them up with a customized care plan designed to meet their needs. A licensed, bonded, and insured caregiver will be sent to your loved one’s home to start the home care service.

Why Choose Assisting Hands?
Elderly Home Care Services
Our elderly home care services cover a variety of tasks needed, including the following:
- Fall Prevention: Falls are among the most common cause of injuries and hospitalization for seniors. Our caregivers can help prevent falls by clearing away any tripping hazards and/or assisting them with walking around the home.
- Meal Preparation: If your senior loved one is no longer able to cook their own meals, our caregivers can prepare these meals while taking into account any dietary restriction.
- Transportation and Errands: If your senior loved one is no longer able to drive, we can help them get to and from the grocery store, doctor, pharmacy, family gatherings, etc.
- Light Housekeeping: Our caregivers can keep the home clean and organized by providing light housekeeping services such as vacuuming, laundry, and dusting.
- Companionship: Our caregivers are more than just care providers for your loved ones; they are great companions and build personal connections by keeping them engaged in conversation and activities.
- Personal Care: If assistance with bathing or using the restroom is needed, our caregivers can help with this.
