Let our caregivers help where it matters most with a unique care plan adapted to your needs
Okija health offers an array of home care services, from companion care to personal care, to provide seniors with the support they need to continue living as independently as possible. You can read more about the in home care services we provide below.
Our caregivers spend quality time with seniors who may be in need of some company or social interaction. We will eat meals together, go for walks, watch TV, or do whatever activity the client enjoys. Social contact such as this is proven to enhance health, happiness, and quality of life.
It can become difficult for seniors to shop for groceries or fix well-balanced meals like they used to. Our caregivers will help shop for groceries and prepare nutritious meals based on their clients’ taste preferences. We also encourage our clients to help with meal preparation as much as they are physically able.
Our light housekeeping services cover most domestic tasks such as dusting, vacuuming, and doing laundry. We do not provide outdoor cleaning or maintenance services.
Although administering medication is not included in our in home care services, we will ensure that clients take their medications on time and as prescribed.
Depending on the client’s needs, we will provide home care for just a few hours a week or provide full-time, 24-hour care. When using our 24-hour services, you will work with a team of caregivers who work in shifts to care for your loved one. 24-hour care is great for families seeking around the clock care to provide them with peace of mind.
Getting a senior out and about is good for their minds, bodies, and spirits. We will drive our clients to appointments, social events, or to run errands as needed. When running errands, clients may choose to stay home or come along as an excellent way to stay active and engaged.
Our in home caregivers are trained to help seniors feel positive about their appearances through bathing, grooming, and hygiene assistance.
Seniors tend to become more stationary as they age. We provide mobility assistance to help our clients maintain active lifestyles within their ages, abilities, and overall health status. Our caregivers encourage activity through light exercise or short walks to ensure seniors get up and get moving (if possible).
Many seniors may need the help of walkers or wheelchairs. Our caregivers are trained to move and place clients correctly and safely.
Our caregivers are trained to assist clients with toileting and incontinence care. We are careful to take a caring and dignified approach when helping seniors with such tasks as it can be difficult to accept this type of loss of independence
Aging may result in the loss of independent eating, which is why our caregivers help feed clients to ensure they are getting proper nutrition intake. We focus on making mealtime relaxed and enjoyable.
