In Home Care
Bathing, Grooming, and Hygiene
Comfort Keepers of Waite Park & St. Cloud, MN can help seniors feel positive about their appearance through bathing, grooming, and hygiene assistance. Bathing not only cleanses the skin but goes deeper to refresh the spirit, provide relaxation, and stimulate circulation. Our Comfort Keepers are trained to lessen any embarrassment or discomfort.
Mobility Assistance
Mobility assistance helps seniors maintain as active of a lifestyle as possible when considering their ages, abilities, and overall health. There are many physical health benefits of keeping the senior mobile, including lowering blood pressure, improving digestion and sleep, increasing energy and stamina, and strengthening the heart. Comfort Keepers can also accompany the client on a short walk, and provide encouragement and reminders to complete prescribed exercises.
Transferring and Positioning
Our in home care experts 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.
Toileting and Incontinence Care
Our Comfort Keepers work to maintain the dignity and self-esteem of seniors and other adult clients as they assist with daily living activities. Through this caring approach, Comfort Keepers caregivers help lessen the embarrassment clients may feel associated with incontinence and need for toileting assistance.
Feeding and Special Diet
Some clients need help feeding themselves, and the loss of independent eating can be hard to accept. Our Comfort Keepers caregivers understand this and are particularly sensitive, making the extra effort that can turn mealtime into a more enjoyable social time. In addition, Comfort Keepers of Waite Park & St. Cloud, MN will help ensure that their clients stay on prescribed diets to prevent or control a wide variety of medical conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, or diabetes.
In-Home Companionship
Conversation and Companionship
Part of our in home care services includes simple companionship, for instance through conversation or sharing a meal. Social contact such as this is proven to enhance seniors’ health, happiness, and quality of life.
Meal Preparation
Many seniors do not have the ability to shop for groceries and fix a well-balanced meal. Comfort Keepers can prepare hot, delicious, nutritious meals based on their clients’ preferences to help them get the proper nutrition they need. Clients may help with meal preparation as their abilities permit. A great meal can go a long way in helping make home care become a very welcomed treat.
Laundry
Our Comfort Keepers will tend to the laundry either at their clients’ homes or a laundry facility, and will wash, dry, fold, iron, and put clothing away. We work to ensure that each client’s laundry is done according to his or her preferences.
Light Housekeeping
Our light housekeeping services cover most domestic tasks including vacuuming, dusting, sweeping, and mopping floors as well as cleaning bathrooms and kitchens.. Often seniors are able and want to join their caregivers in housework, which can help them feel useful and needed. Please be advised that Comfort Keepers do not provide outdoor cleaning or maintenance as part of our in home care services.
Grocery Shopping/Errands
Comfort Keepers will shop for groceries at the stores their clients prefer and run errands such as picking up prescriptions or going to the post office. Clients may choose to stay home or come along and help with the shopping and errands as an excellent way to stay active and engaged. Comfort Keepers will use any coupons provided.
Incidental Transportation
Our Comfort Keepers can provide incidental transportation for clients, allowing them the freedom to go shopping and attend other activities such as medical appointments, the barbershop or beauty salon, family events, and other places the senior chooses. Getting a senior out and about is good for the senior’s mind, body, and spirit.
Medication Reminders
Although Comfort Keepers cannot administer medications, they can help ensure that clients take their own medications as prescribed. Our Comfort Keepers can assist with opening medication containers, reading labels, and reminding their clients when it is time to take a dose.
