Each Comfort Keepers client has unique care needs. That is why we offer a full range of in home care services for seniors and other adults – to tailor care plans that provide our senior and other adult clients the right amount and types of help to support independent living at home. These services for seniors are provided by the special caregivers we call Comfort Keepers, to promote independent living to its fullest. Examples of our services are listed below.

Personal Care Services

Bathing, Grooming, and Hygiene

Comfort Keepers helps clients look and feel their best. These services enhance clients’ mental as well as physical well-being, helping them feel positive about their appearance. Bathing not only cleanses the skin but goes deeper to refresh the spirit, provide relaxation and stimulate circulation.

Mobility Assistance

Comfort Keepers Maple Ridge home care services for seniors assist clients as needed with mobility to help them maintain as active a lifestyle as possible. Being able to get out and about offers both physical and mental health benefits to seniors. Physical health benefits of activity include increased stamina and energy, a strengthened heart, lower blood pressure, and improved digestion and sleep. In addition, activity improves mood, releases stress, and increases mental alertness.

Transferring and Positioning

Comfort Keepers are trained to move and place clients in correct posture positions to promote health and safety and proper functioning of the body’s many systems. Proper transferring and positioning from or into beds and chairs eliminate pressure areas on the skin, reduce weakening and stiffening of muscles, and encourage proper breathing, digestion and elimination.

Toileting and Incontinence Care

Comfort Keepers compassionately and sensitively provide care services for seniors and other adults, helping them maintain dignity and self-esteem as they receive help with the activities of daily living. Through this caring approach Comfort Keepers help to lessen clients’ embarrassment associated with the loss of independence related to incontinence and the need for toileting assistance.

Feeding and Special Diet

For a number of reasons, adults may need help feeding themselves. This loss of independence can be difficult to accept. Comfort Keepers understand this and make the extra effort to turn mealtime into an enjoyable social time.

In addition, Comfort Keepers help make certain that seniors and other clients stay on prescribed diets to prevent or control a wide variety of medical conditions such as heart disease, diabetes, and osteoporosis. In general Comfort Keepers enable clients to eat a well-balanced diet that provides the energy needed for active living and nutrients for disease prevention, healing, and healthful living.

Home Companionship and Care Services

Conversation and Companionship

Comfort Keepers in Maple Ridge are available to provide clients company and engage in conversation, or to sit down to share a meal together. Social contact such as this is proven to enhance the health, happiness, and quality of life of seniors.

Meal Preparation

Comfort Keepers prepare hot, delicious, and nutritious meals, allowing clients to help with preparation according to their ability. Many seniors do not have the opportunity to eat a well-balanced meal, so this service helps seniors get the nutrition they need to enjoy healthier living.

Laundry

These services can be done in either the client’s home or the Laundromat and include washing, drying, ironing, and putting things away. Comfort Keepers involve clients to make sure laundry is done according to their preferences.

Grocery Shopping/Errands

Comfort Keepers shop for groceries at stores of their clients’ preference and run errands, such as picking up prescriptions or going to the post office. Clients may choose to stay home or help with shopping and errands as an excellent way to stay active and engaged. Comfort Keepers will use any coupons provided.

Transportation

Comfort Keepers provides transportation to medical appointments, barbershops, beauty salons, shopping, or wherever else a client wants to go. Getting seniors out and about is good for their mind, body, and spirit—and an integral part of Comfort Keepers’ Interactive Caregiving™.
