Home Care Services

Our Services

Loving Kindness and Care covers a full-range of non-medical care services giving clients new hope regarding their personal situations, and thus allowing them to live more rewarding lives in the comfort of their own homes.

 

We assist our clients with everything from companionship to personal care such as bathing and toileting. Our services are available anytime ― day, night, weekends, and holidays, for the short term or for an extended duration.

How We Determine the Services for You

We start by having an in-depth discussion with you. We review your needs, concerns and what you would like us to do. You are always in control of the care you are receiving. If you deem it necessary, we will discuss your needs with family members or with medical or Social Services Professionals.

Next, we develop a Personal Care Plan to manage your daily needs. We discuss the plan with you and your family. We then match the best caregiver with you, our client. We visit you to ensure you are comfortable with our Personal Care Plan and the caregiver.

We continuously monitor our care services and your satisfaction to be sure you are happy with our work.

Companion Care Services

People need people and human relationships to maintain balance in their lives. Whether it’s just a smile, a helping hand or an encouraging voice, the human connection is vital in keeping spirits high and preventing depression.  Companionship and conversation create social interaction which stimulates mental awareness. These human interactions lead to better health.

The Loving Kindness and Care staff are people who love to be around people.  Their presence can lift anyone’s day.  Allow them to work with you and your loved one.

Life Coaching for Seniors

Though many of our staff have decades of experience in counseling, Life Coaching is a program that is not equivalent to counseling, mentoring, consulting or advice. We understand that when people think of Life Coaching, the elderly or disabled are not the first groups who come to mind. At Loving Kindness and Care, we believe that retirement years can be the twilight years of one’s life.  In addition, those whom are homebound or disabled should not disqualify themselves from a fruitful life. After an accident or an illness that challenges your mobility strikes, it could be the beginning of the most gratifying time of your life.

 

 If there are practical, realistic goals that are yet to be accomplished in your life, our Life Coaches can set up a gradual and manageable approach to achieve these goals. If you have a desire to paint, to re-build and maintain tarnished relationships with family members or friends, to attend a social outing, or learn how to do something new, our Life Coaches can assist you, direct you,  and equip you with the skills and help you need.

 

Goals are closely tied with hope and hope is essential to the quality of a life.  Allow our Life Coaches to renew your hope by showing you how attainable your dreams really are.
