Personal Services

Compassionate & Respect In-Home Caregivers

If a loved one has recently suffered a stroke, injury or surgery they may require personal services to assist them in dressing, bathing and even walking. Most people want to help a loved one any way they can, but highly personal tasks can become embarrassing and anxiety ridden. Caring for a mother, father, grandmother or grandfather can be uncomfortable or cause injury to the patient depending on the kind of care that the individual now requires.

A-1 Domestic Professional Services Inc. is an employment / placement referral agency and can help your family find the right Caregiver, Personal Care Assistant, Home Health Aide, Certified Nurse Aide, Companion Caregiver for Seniors or Elderly or Home Helper.

Assisting your Parent or Grandparent with highly personal tasks such as bathing, toiletry / incontinence care and dressing can become embarrassing or difficult for a daughter, son or grandchild to help them with.  Hiring a professional care provider helps your loved one retain their dignity and comfort while allowing you to continue being their loving family member instead of their “Caregiver”.

Professional Care Providers vs. Family Caregivers

If a loved one has suffered a stroke, undergone surgery or has lost mobility, they may require personal services to assist them with daily tasks such as walking, dressing or bathing.  Of course you want to help your loved one but it’s important to consider the risks or becoming their main family caregiver.

If your father is 6’ tall and over 250 pounds and you’re a small framed daughter trying to help him shower, there’s a real risk of him slipping and falling or you can injure yourself. It’s a very unsafe situation, as well as uncomfortable. Even helping your frail mother can cause her anxiety or embarrassment which may lead to her not wanting to maintain her personal hygiene.

A-1 Domestic Professional Services Inc. can help you find a caregiver to provide the personal services your loved one needs, matching the Caregiver’s skills, experience and physical attributes to the needs of your family member. All Caregivers, Home Health Aides, Personal Care Assistants and Nurse Aides must pass our screening process and provide current documentation and references.
