  1. Understanding The Difference Between Personal Care And Companion Care When you’re in the middle of life, finding time to help, your aging loved ones is hard. Between bathing, feeding, running errands, and socializing — it can be difficult to assist all alone. But this is where the Old Age Care Centre in Kalyan comes into play!

  2. In most cases, family caregivers in your situation would turn to professionals who fall into two care categories: companion care and personal care. • This article offers an overview of the difference between home and personal care and why each could benefit your elderly loved one. • Companion Care • Companion care is non-medical care that helps seniors or people with disabilities live independently in their homes. A caregiver can offer emotional support, assistance with making meals, housecleaning, and more. • If you hire a companion care provider, they’ll perform a variety of tasks for you, including: • Preparing meals • Housekeeping • Household chores, including doing laundry, dishes • Running errands • Running social activities • Communicating with family members • Transportation

  3. Personal Care • Personal care workers (PCWs) often provide custodial care and assistance with personal hygiene, toileting, and other daily tasks. If you decide that PCWs don’t also perform errands, it’s up to you and the prospective PCW. • Personal caregivers provide services that typically include: • Oral hygiene • Bathing and showering • Assistance with dressing • Assisting you with toileting • Changing continence pads and cleaning those areas • Applying creams, lotions and hair products, etc. • Maintaining a catheter bag. • The Ultimate Guide To Choosing The Right Caregiver • Speak with your loved one about their wishes and needs. Find out what type of care they would like and if they have any preferences or concerns about their caregiver.

  4. Consider the qualifications of the caregiver. Make sure the person you hire has a degree in nursing, health care, or a similar field and at least two years of experience providing care for seniors or individuals with disabilities. You can find a qualified Senior Citizen Care Taker in Kalyanfor your dear ones. Have a contract specifying all the details about who will be responsible for what when providing long-term care services. This could prevent any misunderstandings in the future. Conclusion If you want your loved one to remain healthy and happy, you may want to invest in a caregiver. This will allow them to stay closer to home, where they’re most comfortable, and allows you to receive the extra support you need. It’s a worthwhile investment for the time and cares it provides for your loved one, especially if they need help with more serious conditions that require an entirely different set of skills.
