How Disabled Adults Can Benefit From Professional Home Care
For many disabled adults, maintaining independence and a sense of normalcy is their highest priority.

Whether you have a disability or you are caring for a family member who is a disabled adult, this article will help you learn how professional home care can help make the tasks of everyday living a little easier, allowing you or your loved one to live safely and comfortably at home.
Tailored Home Care for Adults with Disabilities
Personal Care Support for Daily Living
We all know that personal hygiene is important for a person’s health and well-being, but it can often be very difficult for a disabled person to bathe and get dressed on their own. A caregiver can help assist with these personal care tasks, as well as with grooming, toileting, and mobility.
Compassionate Companionship to Combat Isolation
A companion caregiver can provide transportation so that you or your loved one can attend medical appointments, therapy sessions, or even community outings. They can also watch movies, play games, share meals, and just spend time talking.
Holistic Support Through Palliative Care
For many individuals with disabilities, chronic pain and discomfort are part of daily life. While the caregivers at Visiting Angels Southbridge do not offer medical care, we do provide compassionate, non-medical support through a holistic palliative care approach by offering physical comfort, emotional reassurance, and companionship.
Reducing Risks with Fall Prevention
Falls can be a significant concern for people with mobility challenges, and the Visiting Angels Safe & Steady Fall Prevention Program is designed to address this risk. Our program begins with a thorough home safety assessment which looks for ways to create a safer living space. Our caregivers are trained to assist with exercises that promote strength and balance, provide mobility support, and suggest practical home modifications. This comprehensive approach minimizes fall risks so that you or your loved one can remain independent.
Relief for Family Caregivers Through Respite Care
Providing care for a loved one can be both fulfilling and exhausting. Caregiver burnout is a genuine challenge, but can be prevented. Visiting Angels Southbridge offers flexible respite care to give family caregivers a much-needed break. Whether your loved one resides at home or in a care facility, our team can also help with household tasks like light cleaning, laundry, grocery shopping, and meal preparation or simply provide companionship while you take time to focus on your well-being. Whether you need support for an hour, a full afternoon, or overnight, a dedicated caregiver’s consistent visits ensure that your loved one has reliable companionship and care, giving you the peace of mind that they are in capable hands.
