What to Expect With Our Home Care in San Antonio

We're deeply invested in the comfort and well-being of the seniors we serve, and the peace of mind of those who love them. To make sure your loved one receives the best home care — and that everyone feels completely comfortable — we'll go through the following steps together:

• The first call: Contact us to share some details about your loved one and the care they need. Then we can explain our services, rates, and how we could help.
• Evaluation and planning: We'll visit your loved one's home to conduct our assessment and go into your loved one's care needs in more depth. Our care team will use this information, as well as any details your family can provide, to suggest a specific care plan and schedule. We'll consider your relative's physical, cognitive, and social needs, their personality, and the demands on your family.  
• Caregiver selection: Based on the care plan we establish together, our team will select a care professional whose abilities, availability, and personality seem like the best fit.  

Our Personal Care Services

Personal care is what most people think of when they picture home care. This type of care covers all the routine tasks that can get trickier with age, from doing dishes and buying groceries to getting in and out of the bath.

Based on your loved one's abilities and needs, our caregivers can help with any of the following:

• Tidying and basic chores
• Grocery shopping and other outside errands
• Medication prompts
• Planning out and preparing meals
• Physical support with bathing and dressing
• Physical support with walking and transferring

Respite Care Options

Caregiving is a family affair, and so is our respite care. We understand how all-consuming this task can be and why it's so important for family caregivers to rest as well. If you need time away from your caregiving role, our dedicated care professionals can tend to your loved one's needs while you rest, recover, and tend to your own.

Companion Care and Social Care

Many seniors in San Antonio spend more time on their own than they'd like, but we can help them with companion care. If your loved one doesn't see friends or family as much due to illness, lack of transport, or other age-based factors, our caregivers can provide regular companionship.

From friendly chats in the kitchen to scenic walks and scheduled outings, we can help your loved one re-engage with the world around them. Our caregivers can also help your relative use social media, video chat, and other technologies to keep in touch with the people they treasure.

Alzheimer's Care and Dementia Care 

Millions of families all over the country are caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease. To support families in San Antonio, our home care includes specialized assistance for Alzheimer's and other types of dementia.

Our caregivers can prepare your loved one's meals, keep them on track with medications and appointments, check up on them regularly, and promote a calm environment at a very distressing time. 

End of Life Care

For seniors and other clients nearing the end of life transition, whether due to natural causes or a terminal illness, we can provide peace and comfort through our end of life care. Our caregivers can help ease your loved one's discomfort and take on additional household tasks, so your family can devote your time and energy to one another.

Palliative Care

For clients who've been diagnosed with a serious medical condition, we can provide physical, emotional, social, and spiritual care to promote their comfort and well-being in every form as they go through treatment. Palliative care is available for clients of all ages, regardless of their ultimate prognosis.

Safe and Steady Fall Prevention

Falls are one of the most common dangers that seniors face at home, as a slip can lead to broken bones and other serious injuries. We've made fall prevention a top priority within our home care in San Antonio.

Through our Safe and Steady fall prevention program, we provide personalized risk assessments, fall-proofing recommendations at home, and physical assistance with riskier activities.

Ready Set-GO HOME 

Hospital readmission is another widespread problem among seniors, particularly within the first month after discharge. If your loved one has to be hospitalized due to illness or injury, we can consult their medical team at the hospital, assist your family with the transition home, and help your loved one follow their discharge instructions safely and comfortably. We can also advocate for follow-up care as needed.
