  individual. The services provided may include
  shopping, meal preparation, transportation,
  companionship, bathing, medical treatment or
  assistance with toileting. These services should
  be arranged by the patient's family or friends.

  a long-term nursing care facility may be
  recommended.

Elderly Home Care Services

• With advances in the field of geriatric medicine,
  more elderly citizens are experiencing medical
  conditions such as Alzheimer's disease, dementia,
  Parkinson's disease and other serious cognitive
  problems that affect their ability to dress
  themselves, talk, walk, bathe or otherwise cope
  with their environment. Elderly companion care
  services can assist the elderly with activities
  of daily living. They may involve helping the
  disabled retiree or the elderly homeowner to take
  his or her bath giving him or her personal
  caretaker to assist with toilet training
  arranging his or her medication assisting in
  dressing and grooming. Likewise, services may
  also include housekeeping duties such as dusting,

• Many seniors rely heavily on their loved ones to
  provide the care that they need. However, many
  seniors experience feelings of loneliness and
  depression due to their physical limitations. The
  introduction of nursing home Caregiver Agency and
  other assisted living options has made it
  possible for seniors to remain in their own homes
  but receive necessary medical care that most
  health care providers can't provide. Home care
  and nursing home care services can improve the
  quality of life for seniors by providing
  personalized medical care.
