As parents or loved ones age, it is normal to have growing concerns about their well-being and safety. While family and friends can help with caregiving, you may find yourself asking if it is enough. An in-home caregiver can help you provide additional support for your loved ones and bring peace of mind to your family.

But what are a caregiver’s duties? In a nutshell, a caregiver can:

– Provide companionship and social interaction

– Provide physical care, such as bathing, dressing and grooming

– Prepare meals and feeding

– Helping with mobility, such as transferring from a bed to a wheelchair

– Performing light housekeeping tasks, such as laundry and vacuuming

If you’re considering in home caregiving services, it’s important to find a reputable provider who can meet your loved one’s specific needs. Here at Inspired Care Solutions, we specialize in providing top-quality care to seniors in the Boerne, Fair Oaks and Leon Springs areas. Contact us today to learn more about how we can help you and your family.

Companionship For Seniors

Companion care is a service that helps seniors stay mentally healthy and happy. Beyond providing company and support for those who may be lonely, our caregivers strive to find joyful and engaging ways to spend time with their clients. Whether it’s playing a game, engaging in conversation, or going for a walk, companion care can improve your loved one’s overall health and well-being. Seniors who have a companion are more likely to stay active and engaged in their communities. They also experience reduced stress and anxiety.

Personal Care Assistance

Personal care for seniors can include bathing, toileting, dressing, and feeding. It can help seniors remain at home and experience an enhanced quality of life that might not be possible elsewhere.

A few hours of personal assistance in the morning can help a senior get ready to take on the day. Similarly, a few hours of help in the evening could help a senior prepare for a restful night. When seniors have personal care assistance, their chance of falls is greatly reduced. 

Unlike other types of care, personal care does not need to be prescribed by a doctor. A caregiver from Inspired Care Solutions can be scheduled for as little as 4 hours a day. 

Sitting

Surprised by this one? Don’t be! The value of someone’s presence is priceless. Caregivers often sit with clients to ensure safety, particularly in the evenings or at nighttime. Our caregivers consider it “sitting with a purpose”; they bring their “whole self” and are ready to meet the needs of their client. Sitting with a client could be time for a family caregiver to take a break, run errands, or attend a social engagement. We call this respite care.
