Homemaker/Companion Services can include:
Meal Preparation We canprepare hot, delicious, and nutritious meals, allowing the client to help with preparation according to their ability. Many do not have the opportunity to eat a well-balanced meal, so this service helps elders get the nutrition needed to enjoy healthier living. Laundry These services can be done in the home or the laundromat and include washing, drying, ironing, and putting clothes away. We will involve the client to make sure laundry is done according to their preferences. Light Housekeeping Light housekeeping services include vacuuming, dusting, sweeping, mopping floors, cleaning bathrooms (sinks, tubs, showers, and toilets), cleaning kitchens (sinks, appliances, counters, taking out trash), straightening all rooms, organizing closets and drawers, and cleaning any interior windows that can be reached without a ladder. Grocery Shopping/Errands Let us shop for groceries at the stores of client preference or run errands, such as picking up prescriptions or going to the post office. Respite Care or Relief for Family Caregiving can be rewarding and often strengthens bonds within a family. At the same time, caregiving can be demanding amid life's other responsibilities. Family caregivers and those in their care can benefit from a little time off now and then. That is why Como Park/Falcon Heights Living-At-Home Block Nurse Program offers respite caregiving. This service can be scheduled as needed to provide family caregivers time to run errands, go shopping, or get some much-needed rest.
