How to Know When Seniors in McKinney, TX and Nearby Areas Need Personal Hygiene Assistance

Of course, before you make any decisions, first you need to make sure that personal hygiene assistance is something that your loved one really needs. Look for signs of self-neglect and poor hygiene in your parent. Should you happen to notice they have an unkempt appearance and strong body odors or that they are wearing the same clothes for days, professional at-home senior care may be the best solution to help your mom or dad.

At Visiting Angels McKinney, we can provide your loved one with a fully customized care plan and assist with personal hygiene, grooming and bathing.

How Our Caregivers Help McKinney-Area Seniors with Personal Hygiene

When it comes to hygiene, maintaining a clean and tidy appearance is not only a matter of dignity or self-esteem. If your parent is unfit to shower or bathe often enough, they could develop a number of hygiene issues such as offensive odors, rashes or skin breakdown and suffer much emotional distress along the way.

On the other hand, with sufficient levels of personal home care services from Visiting Angels McKinney, these problems can be easily addressed. We will make certain your loved one receives all the help they need to look and feel their best.

Our approach to personal hygiene assistance includes helping seniors with:

• Bathing
• Dressing in the morning and undressing/preparing for bed in the evening
• Grooming
• Putting makeup or shaving
• Dental care
• Toileting and incontinence care

You also need to be aware that some routines are best performed by a professional who is trained to tackle these matters, especially when it comes to bathing assistance. In addition to this, the majority of seniors would prefer to receive this intimate type of care from a professional home care provider than their family caregiver or loved ones.
