Home Care for Parkinson’s Disease Patients
The Challenges of Living with Parkinson’s Disease
Our trained caregivers can provide vital support to patients with Parkinson’s Disease in the following areas:
Eating
Helping patients maintain a healthy diet by helping prepare and serve nutritious meals and, where necessary, assisting patients with feeding and cleaning up afterwards.
Bathing and Hygiene
Providing assistance and support with bathing and personal hygiene including attention to oral and skin care.
Dressing
Supporting patients in the process of dressing and undressing to ensure that they are able to maintain their personal dignity and confidence despite the difficulties associated with the gradual worsening of Parkinson’s Disease.
Grooming
Ensuring regular personal grooming in order to maintain a healthy lifestyle. This includes nail clipping, hair care, and facial grooming.
Mobility
Helping patients maintain a regular regime of mobility through daily walks or exercise routines maintaining mobility, balance, and flexibility.
Home Safety
Our home caregivers can perform regular formal and informal examinations of the home physical environment to ensure safe mobility inside or outside the home.
Toileting/Continence
Parkinson’s Disease can make it difficult to perform basic personal sanitary activities alone. Our caregivers can patiently offer support with toileting and continence care including the emptying of catheter drainage bags and safely changing adult diapers.
