Personal
Care Services:
-
Bathing:
Bathing is essential to an individual’s sense of well-being. It
refreshes the spirit, provides relaxation while cleansing the skin
and stimulating circulation.
-
Mobility:
Activity and exercise are vital to a healthy lifestyle. The benefits
of movement to both physical and mental health are seen in everyday
life.
Benefits include increasing
stamina, strengthening the heart, lowering blood pressure, improving
digestion and sleep. In addition it improves mood, releases stress
and increases mental alertness.
-
Transferring and Positioning:
Moving or placing a person into a correct posture position
encourages the functional activity of the body’s many systems. It
assists in eliminating pressure areas on the skin, reducing atrophy
and stiffening of muscles, encourages proper breathing, digestion,
and elimination.
-
Incontinence Care: The
inability to control urination or defecation is embarrassing to
individuals and can become unsanitary if not taken care of
correctly. Our caregivers understand the sensitivity of this
situation and approaches to caring for individuals who need
assistance.
-
Toileting:
Elimination is an important and normal body function. However, it is
usually an activity that is private and one that is not openly
discussed. The individual often faces embarrassment along with a
sense of loss of independence. Our caregivers strive to provide an
acceptable, comfortable and safe environment for all types of
toileting needs.
-
Feeding:
We understand that it is usually hard for an adult to accept the
idea of not being able to feed themselves. The reasons are varied,
however the sense of loss of independence is real. Our caregivers
understand the feelings this can cause and take the extra effort to
make the environment and mealtime special.
-
Oral
Hygiene: Proper mouth, teeth,
denture and gum care are essentials to good oral and dental hygiene.
Daily oral care can prevent bad breath, tooth decay, gum disease and
assist in prevention of other diseases.
-
Special
Diet and Meal Preparation: We
recognize that eating is a social activity and that good nutrition
is important in order for people to live life to its fullest. It is
especially important for a person whose body is in a weakened
condition. Proper foods give us energy to carry out the day’s
activities, are necessary to rebuild body tissue, prevent disease
and are essential to any healing process.
