Personal Home Care Services
Daily personal care is essential to living safely and confidently at home. Our trained caregivers provide hands-on support tailored to each client’s preferences and needs.
Bathing & Grooming
Bathing can be a vulnerable experience. Our caregivers assist with bathing, ensuring safety, privacy, and comfort. Grooming support is provided to help clients feel refreshed, confident, and dignified each day.
Dressing
Getting dressed shouldn’t be a struggle. We assist clients with selecting appropriate outfits for the weather or occasion, managing fasteners, and ensuring proper fit and comfort. We always respect personal preferences and cultural or religious attire traditions, ensuring that each individual feels like themselves.
Feeding
Proper nutrition plays a vital role in maintaining strength and health. For individuals who need assistance with eating, our caregivers provide patient, respectful help — whether that means cutting food into manageable pieces, helping with utensils, or simply offering encouragement. We also monitor food intake and hydration to prevent malnourishment and dehydration.
Medication Reminders
Adhering to a medication schedule can be challenging, especially when multiple prescriptions are involved. Our caregivers offer timely medication reminders and can track daily dosages. This helps prevent missed or duplicate doses and gives families peace of mind that loved ones follow their care plans.
Transferring & Mobility
We provide gentle assistance with getting in and out of bed, chairs, or wheelchairs, and repositioning to prevent bedsores. For clients with limited mobility, we use transfer equipment if needed and follow safe practices to reduce the risk of falls or injury.
Toileting
Dignity is paramount when it comes to personal hygiene. Our caregivers offer discreet assistance with toileting needs, including bathroom visits, continence support, and changing adult incontinence products. We aim to maintain cleanliness, comfort, and self-respect.
Walking & Fall Prevention
Staying active supports physical and mental health. Whether it’s short indoor walks or light exercises, we encourage movement. Our caregivers assist with walking, provide stability, and reduce fall risks, helping clients maintain strength and balance over time.
Home Support Services
We know that a clean, well-maintained environment and support with errands can reduce stress and increase safety. Our caregivers help with everyday household tasks so clients can focus on what matters most.
Grocery Shopping & Errands
Our team helps ensure that the pantry and fridge stay stocked. We can handle the shopping list independently or accompany clients to stores, making the outing both safe and social. From grocery runs to pharmacy pickups and postal errands, we take care of the little things that make a big difference.
Light Housekeeping
A tidy home promotes mental clarity and physical safety. Our caregivers assist with dusting, vacuuming, sweeping, dishwashing, bed-making, and other light cleaning duties. We help reduce clutter, remove tripping hazards, and create a space that feels peaceful and well-cared-for.
Laundry
Fresh clothing and linens contribute to overall well-being. We manage washing, drying, folding, and putting away clothes or bed sheets, ensuring our clients always have clean, comfortable garments and bedding.
Meal Preparation
We prepare home-cooked meals based on dietary needs, personal preferences, and cultural traditions. Whether it’s a favorite family recipe or a physician-recommended diet, our caregivers ensure meals are both nutritious and enjoyable. We also support clients in planning menus and organizing their kitchens.
Transportation to Appointments
Getting to medical appointments, social events, or faith services can become a challenge with age or illness. Our caregivers provide reliable, safe transportation and help clients check in, take notes if requested, and return home safely, ensuring no important appointment is ever missed.
Medical Care Management
In addition to everyday assistance, JSSA provides expert nursing oversight to monitor health, manage medications, and assess risks in the home environment. This level of care ensures a more complete picture of health and helps clients avoid unnecessary hospital visits.
Comprehensive Nursing Assessments
Our licensed nurses conduct thorough evaluations to understand the client’s medical status, functional abilities, and emotional well-being. These assessments form the foundation of a customized care plan. We continue monitoring over time, adjusting care as health needs evolve.
Home Safety Assessments
We proactively identify potential risks in the home and recommend modifications, such as grab bars, non-slip rugs, and furniture rearrangement, to prevent falls and injuries. By optimizing the living space, we support long-term independence.
Medication Administration
Some clients need help beyond reminders. Our Certified Medication Technicians administer medications, including injections, and track effectiveness or side effects. We collaborate with physicians and family members to keep treatment on track and ensure comfort.
