It’s not always comfortable to ask for help. Even those fortunate enough to have loved ones who are willing and able to help eventually start to feel like an imposition. Because of this, many people limit requests for assistance to the bare essentials, which causes them to withdraw from enjoyable activities that would require them to ask for additional help.
Imagine the freedom of having a devoted caregiver whose only job is to help you live your best life! You’ll be able to do everything you need and want without feeling like a burden to anyone. Our Caregivers are responsible for addressing your needs, ensuring your comfort and safety, preserving your dignity and maximizing your independence.
We’ll treat you like family and do everything we can to help you live your fullest life. We not only care for you, but we help you care for your household so you can continue to enjoy the comforts of home.
Who Can Benefit from In-Home Care?
Modern Health Home Care services benefit clients in a variety of situations. Whether you live alone, with family or in an assisted living facility, we will work with you to create a customized care plan that’s as unique as you are.
Normal Aging
Individuals aging normally – that is, getting older without any medical conditions – experience physiological changes that can interfere with maintaining independence. Coordination, balance and endurance may be impacted by weakening muscles and bones. Gradual declines in memory and thinking will likely cause everyday tasks to become more cumbersome. Vision might be impacted by an increased sensitivity to light and glare or diminished peripheral vision.
Services that benefit healthy seniors include transportation, companionship and social interaction, intellectual stimulation, meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry and linens, help with routine tasks like changing smoke alarm batteries and watering plants, help to care for pets and more. These types of services are known as Companion Care.
Modern Health Home Care does not have minimum visit lengths or a required number of hours per week, so we will happily help you as much or as little as you like.
Dementia & Cognitive Limitations
Individuals in the mild and moderate stages of dementia will be forgetful, might occasionally get lost in familiar areas and will begin to struggle with everyday tasks. Meal planning to ensure proper nutrition is one service that benefits people in these stages. Additionally, watchful oversight, handling mail and paying bills would also benefit this at-risk group.
Modern Health Home Care also provides hands-on assistance that will be needed as your condition evolves within the moderate stage and progresses to advanced dementia. Known as Personal Care, these services include bathing and grooming, toileting assistance and incontinence care, help with ambulation and transfers, feeding assistance and more.
We encourage you to get started with home care as soon as possible after your diagnosis; even a couple of hours each week in the early months or years will help ensure a seamless transition to additional care as needed in the future.
Physical Limitations
Whatever your age and physical challenges, we will work with you to customize a care plan that addresses your personal goals. Whether you have had a lifelong physical disability, have a more short-term limitation such as weakness from chemotherapy or following surgery, or you have been diagnosed with a progressive disease like congestive heart failure, multiple sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, rheumatoid arthritis or COPD, our caregivers are equipped to provide the Companion and Personal care you need in order to maintain your independence.
