Certified Holistic Care from Senior Home Care by Angels
The Certified Holistic Care program from Senior Home Care by Angels provides comprehensive and comforting personal home care services for older adults
If your loved one is trying to manage a chronic condition or illness in their own home, they may benefit from professional care in order to help them stay comfortable. At Senior Home Care by Angels, our Certified Holistic Care program focuses on providing compassionate and comforting personal home care services to elderly and disabled adults throughout Canada.
Although the terms holistic and hospice are often used interchangeably, they are in fact different. Hospice is typically defined as care of the terminal or dying person, usually with a life expectancy of six months or less. Whereas, holistic care is supportive care for clients with a wide range of needs, regardless of life expectancy.
At Senior Home Care by Angels, we view holistic care as a philosophy of care. This is not a ‘program’ we admit our clients to, but is in fact how we care for all our clients. The Senior Home Care by Angels Holistic Care Certification Program was developed to train our caregivers to provide care that is supportive, soothing, comforting, and attends to the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual needs of our clients.
Through our continuum of personal home care services, we are able to provide quality, competent, and supportive care that enriches the lives of those we serve. Senior Home Care by Angels has adopted a philosophy that integrates best practices to effectively support our clients and their families.
