Personal Care Services
Bathing, Grooming, and Hygiene

Bathing not only cleanses the skin but goes deeper to refresh the spirit, provide relaxation, and stimulate circulation. Our caregivers are trained to lessen any embarrassment or discomfort.
Mobility Assistance
Comfort Keepers provides mobility assistance to seniors and other adults. The mobility services we provide help seniors maintain as active of a lifestyle as possible when considering their ages, abilities, and overall health. We realize there are many physical health benefits to keeping a senior mobile, including lowering blood pressure, improving digestion and sleep, increasing energy and stamina, and strengthening the heart. We can also accompany the client on a short walk, and provide encouragement and reminders to complete prescribed exercises.
Transferring and Positioning
Our caregivers are trained to move and place clients in correct posture positions to promote health and safety. Proper transferring and positioning from or into beds and chairs eliminates pressure areas on the skin, reduces weakening and stiffening of muscles, and encourages proper breathing, digestion, and elimination.
