In-home Elderly Care: Helping with IADLs

Keeping up with household tasks and day-to-day responsibilities becomes more challenging as we age. Things like changing bed sheets, planning, shopping, and preparing meals, or keeping track of medication schedules, can be overwhelming for older adults. An in-home caregiver can assist with these Instrumental Activities of Daily Living. At Inspired Care Solutions, our caregivers provide exceptional service to older adults, delivering care with compassion. Our commitment to our clients goes beyond completing tasks; we get to know our clients and build a relationship with them.

Does a Caregiver Help With Personal Care?

Yes! Our caregivers are trained to help clients with personal hygiene such as bathing and toileting. These types of tasks fall under the category of Activities of Daily Living or ADLs. ADLs are more fundamental in nature than the IADLs listed above. The team of caregivers at Inspired Care Solutions is well-versed in helping clients with both ADLs and IADLs.
