At Ella Home Care, we take great pride in meeting the needs of our clients – and this looks different for everyone. A big benefit of working with Ella Home Care is that we carefully customize our plan for in-home care for every client. This is why every engagement first starts with an in-depth assessment conducted by our staff. Once we know your needs, we identify how we can meet them. Take a look at the most common areas of care we provide.
Personal Care
Personal care is at the core of what we do. This includes all essential services to meet basic hygiene needs. We can assist with bathing, grooming, dressing, and feeding, as well as transfers, to help clients move around their homes safely. While we do not administer medication, we can provide medication reminders so that doses are followed correctly.
Light Housekeeping
In addition to caring for our clients, we can also care for their living spaces. We can help dust, vacuum, change linens, launder clothes, and organize closets or other areas of the house. It is often a huge relief for families to know that their loved one is able to safely and comfortably age at home while living in a clean and organized space.
Sleep-Over Services
If needed, we can also provide sleep-over services where our caregivers can remain awake overnight while the client sleeps to ensure safety and to offer medication reminders, if needed. In the morning we can also prepare breakfast and make sure the client’s needs are met to prepare them for the day.
Errands and Transportation
Another valuable service we provide is errands and transportation. We can take clients to doctors’ appointments, grocery shopping, to the hair salon, to attend church services, and much more. We also enjoy taking our clients to places and experience they can enjoy like the movies or a restaurant. This allows loved ones to continue to enjoy all their favorite activities without the worry of driving and parking.
Miscellaneous Services
Our miscellaneous services are really where we can shine and help loved ones age safely and gracefully in their homes. We can help with everything from reading the mail, pet walking, answering the phone, mending clothes, cooking together, and even playing games or doing puzzles. We like to get to know each client, what they enjoy, and their hobbies. Then, we accommodate them the best way we can to build a relationship and add joy to their lives.
