| Our
"Possible" Eldercare at Home Services
Keep Seniors Independent, Happy, Healthy,
While Giving Their Families Peace of Mind!
In cooperation with appropriate family members,
Caring Senior Services completes an individualized
assessment for each client. This allows
us to make appropriate recommendations for
eldercare at home and companion care services
that will best meet our client’s needs.
We stay in touch with extended family and
keep them informed about important observed
changes in physical or mental status. We
provide services based on specific requests
that may include any of our “possible”
services (see below).
Our Hours:
We provide companion care and eldercare
at home services from two to twenty-four
hours per day, every day. This includes
evenings, weekends, and holidays.
Consistent
Caregivers:
Whenever possible, caregivers
are assigned to the same client. This helps
them to build a trusting caring bond with
the seniors in their care. It also increases
the likelihood that the assistant will pick
up on subtle changes that merit watching
or further evaluation.

Getting
Started... Easy as
1, 2, 3!
- Call our office to request
a free evaluation. By asking questions
and through careful observation, we mutually
determine how much help is needed and
how often.
- We make a list of the
day-to-day tasks that have become difficult
to manage and the services that are needed.
- We develop an individualized
plan. A schedule is arranged and one of
our trained assistants is assigned to
provide individualize attention and services
based on the plan.
