Support with personal care, meal preparation, housekeeping, and related tasks. Demonstrate genuine compassion and attentiveness to ensure clients feel valued and supported. Maintain safety, privacy, and independence while assisting with daily living activities; contribute to a comfortable and secure home environment.
Example Client Visit
Your day starts with a visit to a client who is feeling isolated and emotionally vulnerable due to limited mobility and the loss of a spouse. You greet them with a gentle and caring approach, assist with their morning routine (getting out of bed, personal hygiene, continence care, dressing, and medication prompts), and ensure the living space is safe and comfortable with light housekeeping as needed. You leave them reassured about your next visit, providing a sense of joy and support, both physically and emotionally.
