We recognise the profound effects that socialisation and companionship may have on the mental health and well-being of the elderly. Opportunities to interact with people and develop relationships with friends, family, neighbours, and community members can help alleviate depression symptoms, minimise elder isolation and loneliness, and potentially lower the risk of dementia.
Personal care is a broad phrase that refers to tasks such as dressing, grooming, and toileting that support basic personal hygiene and activities of daily living. The skilled caregivers at First call 24 assist with personal care needs ranging from stand-by assistance to full care, depending on the needs of each client.
Getting out to community activities, see friends, conduct errands, and see healthcare providers is an important element of many seniors' quality of life. We recognise the importance of maintaining freedom, particularly for people who lack the desire or ability to drive. Access to transportation can also help elders stay in touch with family, friends, and other people they care about.
While our caregivers assist seniors with their daily needs, they also encourage as much participation and engagement as possible. This enables our caregivers to build relationships with clients while also keeping them physically and mentally active. We believe that in-home care is about more than just checking off tasks on a list; we provide personalised care that allows clients to enjoy their time and improves their quality of life. We can lift the spirits of clients and their families by emphasising interactive caregiving.
