Customized housekeeping support for homebound individuals

No two individuals are the same. Every senior who needs assistance has different needs and requirements. A Better Solution Caregivers specialize in personalizing their care plans according to the specific needs and requirements of the older adult under their care and provide customized housekeeping support for homebound individuals. While the older adults may be struggling now due to old age, disabilities, or chronic illnesses, caregivers at A Better Solution understand that these adults were well-functioning parts of society for most of their lives. A Better Solution caregivers provide  customized housekeeping support for homebound individuals accordingly with the respect and devotion that they deserve. 

 

Promoting independence 

Not every older adult has the same needs and requires everything done. Some find it refreshing to run errands and chores around the house. Caregivers at A Better Solution understand this and customize housekeeping support for homebound individuals accordingly.  They stay close and manage the heavy lifting while the older adults can choose to perform the lighter chores around the house under the supervision and care of their caregivers. This ensures that they don't overexert themselves and also maintain a sense of autonomy. 

 

Developing a Cleaning Plan

As stated previously, every older adult has different symptoms and needs. Caregivers at A Better Solution Home Care sit down with the older adults under their care and develop a cleaning plan. For example, if the older adults are unable to stand for too long then they can perform the tasks that require sitting down such as folding clothes and other laundry while the caregivers can take care of vacuuming, bathroom cleaning, washing dishes, etc. This helps them more in control while ensuring that they are not putting themselves or their health at risk. In this way, our caregivers are able to cater to the needs of older adults while providing customized housekeeping support for homebound individuals.

 

Developing a cleaning routine

A cleaning routine can help organize the chores and line up the daily or weekly schedule. Caregivers at A Better Solution Home Care understand the necessity of vacuuming twice a week and cleaning the bathroom every week. They also ensure that the kitchen stays organized so that the older adults can navigate the counters and cabinets easily while also ensuring that the dishes do not pile up. Making the older adults' beds and keeping their bedrooms clean and accessible is also very important. Doing laundry and changing their bed linens can also have a positive impact on their overall health. Additionally, scheduling a deep cleaning and decluttering once every month can make everyday tasks easier and simpler. 

 

A Better Solution Home Care understands how confusing it must be for older adults, who were so recently in the thick of things and doing everything on their own, to be dependent on anyone else for everyday tasks. Caregivers at A Better Solution Home Care make it their priority to make this transition as gradual as possible, helping them out with chores while also personalizing their care routine in a way that maintains their independence and dignity and ensuring customized housekeeping support for homebound individuals.
