Ready to get started with professional home care services? Senior Home Care by Angels of Cambridge makes it easy for families to arrange care for elderly loved ones.
When it comes time to begin arranging professional care for an elderly loved one, many families are unsure of their first steps. Who should I contact? What will be discussed? How will I know the company I'm speaking with is the right choice for my loved one?
At Senior Home Care by Angels, we understand that it can be difficult for families to understand what to expect when hiring a professional care provider. That's why we make it easy and stress-free for families in Cambridge, Guelph, and Kitchener-Waterloo to get started with our home care services.
We Start with an In-Home Consultation
The best way to provide the highest quality level of in-home care services requires an initial meeting where family and/or client meet with one of our amazing team members. This meeting includes a detailed review of the care needed, schedule requests (if known), specific requests of family or client, and any other concerns. We can also offer a free no-obligation fall prevention assessment as well.
This is an excellent opportunity to ask us questions, and for us to get to know you as well. If you are feeling overwhelmed, we can make recommendations as we have so much experience in understanding what works in certain situations. We've been providing quality home care since 2007, and we know how to help.
The following topics are commonly discussed during initial meetings:
- Specific physical needs of the care recipient with regards to bathing and grooming, dressing, meals and diet, mobility, and incontinence.
- Reviewing schedules involving sleep, eating, and medicine.
- Specific emotional needs such as social interaction, activities, conversation, appointments, and companionship.
- Specific assistance with homemaking such as preparation of meals, groceries, linens, laundry, and light housekeeping.
- Logistics of schedules, access to the home, documentation, and the details of how to work with scheduling changes, the office or the caregivers.
If you would like to proceed with our home care services at that time, we would establish a schedule, and finalize the care plan. We would also coordinate a meeting with caregiver(s) who we think will be compatible with your loved one, and can provide the care they need.
