Assessment/Plan of Care
The registered nurse shall visit the client in the client’s residence to assess their general condition, progress, and response to the services provided.
Personal Care Services
Personal Care Services (PCS) covers the services of an aide in the recipient’s private residence to assist with their personal care needs such as meal preparation, feeding, bathing, dressing, toileting, etc. that are directly linked to a medical condition. PCS is a paraprofessional service and does not include skilled medical or skilled nursing care.
Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) – Definition
Basic personal care usually performed by an individual during the course of the day including ambulation, bathing, bed mobility, dressing, eating, personal hygiene, toilet use, and transfers.
These activities are directly linked to the recipient’s medical condition or diagnosis. These activities are usually performed by unlicensed paraprofessionals and do not constitute skilled medical or skilled nursing care.
Pediatric/Adolescent Personal Care Services
Children with injuries or disabilities might have difficulties performing everyday tasks by themselves. With the help of our care team at HEALTH-PRO (VA) Homecare Services, Inc., we will make sure that they are at their utmost comfort at home so that they can focus on achieving their independence and living the full life they have yet to experience.
Senior/Disabled Personal Care Services
HEALTH-PRO (VA) Homecare Services, Inc. understands that old age and disabilities bring about difficulties when it comes to performing personal care tasks. If they neglect their personal care tasks, it might affect their overall health and well-being. To ensure that we fulfill our mission of serving our clients, we will make sure that we provide proper assistance and respect to the elderly and persons with disabilities so that they can continue to live life with dignity.
Veteran Personal Care Services
At HEALTH-PRO (VA) Homecare Services, Inc., we honor the men and women who have served our country by providing care for them. We understand that some veterans may have injuries/disabilities that hinder them from independently performing their activities of living. That is why we will dedicate our compassion and utmost respect in providing care for veterans just as they have dedicated their lives to protect our country.
Home Attendants/Companion/Sitter Care
An elderly companion or senior sitter is a non-medical caregiver that can be there whenever and wherever clients need them whether that be full-time, part-time, or 24/7. Care can take place in a variety of settings such as senior living housing, nursing homes, hospitals, rehabilitation facilities, etc., but most often takes place within a home setting. However, elderly sitters can only perform certain tasks that are not medically related or involve physical contact (such as ADLs), so their roles are generally limited to providing basic supervision and companionship that can also include light housekeeping and errands depending upon the agreement made with the caregiver.
Respite Care
Respite Care is temporary care of a dependent elderly, ill, or handicapped person, providing relief for their usual caregivers.
Private Pay Home Care
Private pay home care is a service provided to elderly individuals who are in need of assistance with day-to-day activities. A private pay home caregiver visits your home or the home of your loved one and helps with activities such as meal preparation, housekeeping, and personal grooming and hygiene. This form of home care consists of hourly rate care packages.
Sitters are available for all shifts in homes, hospitals, assisted living facilities, and nursing homes. Supervisory staff is on call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to provide information and assure the quality of services.
