Personal Care
Personal Care, often referred to as assistance with the “Activities of Daily Living” (ADLs), is vital to a senior’s ability to remain at home safely and comfortably. Personal care involves bathing, toileting, meal preparation, dressing, walking, ambulation, transfers & assists, transportation, hygiene, grooming, and medication reminders.
Why choose Personal Care?
When it comes to ensuring the well-being of a loved one at home, Personal Care Assistance is one of the most essential services we provide. Along with housekeeping and companion care, personal care offers families peace of mind, knowing their loved one’s daily needs are met with professionalism, compassion, and dignity.
Whether your family requires 24/7 support or just a few hours of assistance each day, our skilled caregivers are here to help. With our personalized approach, we make sure every client receives the care they need to stay safe, comfortable, and independent at home.

Service Plans
How do we establish Personal Care services?
At Caring Companions, we start by listening.
We want to know the personal care concerns you have about your family member.
- Are there safety issues you have noticed?
- Changes in health or hygiene?
- Is your loved one at risk for falls, reluctant to venture outside, or do they have mobility issues?
Perhaps you simply are concerned that your loved one may not be taking their medications correctly, or you wish to have a steady point of contact for the peace of mind of knowing your family member’s status on a regular basis.
How Do We Start Personal Care Services?
Before services start, we will meet our new client and family at home and have a conversation so we can understand the personal care needs. During this free, comprehensive in-home assessment with the senior and family, we will go into detail about the issues they are experiencing. This will result in a care plan that details the tasks our caregivers will perform.
Meeting at home will also give us an opportunity to assess the home situation and make health and safety recommendations. If needed, we will contact medical professionals for specific instructions relevant to caring for chronic conditions, especially if there has been a recent hospital or acute care facility discharge. We will then assign a wonderful caregiver matched to your loved one’s needs and start service.
Our services are customized to the needs and desires of each client and are designed to achieve the quality of life they seek. Immediate adjustments to caregivers or the care plan can be made as necessary. If the caregiver, senior, or family ever has any questions, supervisors are available by phone 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
