At Visiting Angels South Central Michigan, our home care options include assistance with light housekeeping tasks for seniors in Adrian, Jackson, Brooklyn and surrounding areas

When age-related challenges develop and later worsen, one of the first signs that a senior needs help is an untidy home. You may see dishes piling up in the sink, dirty clothes in the laundry, dust on tables and furniture or clutter all around. As a family caregiver, you may be worried about your loved one’s well-being and safety in a home that is not as clean and well-maintained as before.

You may clean your parent or relative’s home from time to time, but if they need a long-time solution, you may be considering whether to hire a maid or professional cleaner who can keep their home tidy. While this solution can certainly work for some older adults, we at Visiting Angels can offer you something even better. Namely, our home care options in Adrian and the surrounding areas of South Central Michigan include light housekeeping, a service that will make your loved one’s daily life at home more comfortable and much safer.

How Our Home Care Options Can Help Your Loved One

Our services focus on assisting seniors with activities of daily living, from meal prep and medication reminders to light housekeeping and transportation. We provide personalized care to each client after carefully assessing their needs, developing a suitable care plan and matching them with a compatible caregiver.

When it comes to light housekeeping, our caregivers regularly clean the homes of our clients, making sure they are germ-, bacteria-, and allergen-free and thus perfectly safe for seniors to live in. Knowing just housekeeping and fall prevention are closely linked, our care providers remove clutter, secure carpets, and provide other safety recommendations for reducing the risk of falls at home.

Our light housekeeping services may include:

• Vacuuming and mopping floors
• Dusting
• Laundry
• Cleaning kitchens
• Cleaning bathrooms
• Making the bed
• Changing sheets and linen
• Taking out the trash

Our caregivers can help with these and many other homemaker activities, but it is important to note that our home care options do not include strenuous tasks like scrubbing floors, washing windows, mowing grass or removing snow. On the other hand, the services we provide will ensure that your loved one’s home is as clean as it gets and we will do whatever we can to improve their well-being, not just through light housekeeping services but conversation and companionship while we work too.
