Maintaining independence becomes increasingly more important as we age.
However, sometimes assistance is necessary for daily tasks and errands.
With SunnyCove Care, your loved one can enjoy their older adult years and maintain their well-earned dignity.
Sitter Services
Watching a loved one age can be difficult, especially when that person begins to need round-the-clock attention and does not wish to, or cannot, leave the home to enter into long-term care.
Even if family members move into the home, there will be times when 24-hour supervision and assistance isn’t possible. Home companion care can ensure that your loved one isn’t left alone while you attend work and take care of other responsibilities.
We take a companionship-first approach to ensure that our clients feel a sense of belonging and friendship rather than feeling as if they are a child who cannot be left alone. We understand the importance of maintaining one’s dignity as we age and take every opportunity to respect that.
Respite Care
Caregiving, by nature, is driven by compassion. But, caring for an older loved one can be demanding physically, mentally, and emotionally and put you at risk for compassion fatigue and caregiver burnout.
Our companion care services allow you, the family caregiver, to take a break from an often stressful daily routine while ensuring that your loved one is in safe, caring, capable hands.
Remember: it doesn’t make you a bad son, daughter, spouse, niece, nephew, or friend to need to take time for your own well-being. Respite care services are designed to alleviate some of the stress on the primary caregiver so that you can return to your loved one feeling refreshed.
Respite can mean different things for different people. Are you looking for short term help after a hospital stay, during rehabilitation, or while you’re away on a needed vacation? Heavenly can support your short term needs so you can keep up for the long term.
Laundry and Linen Changes
Even aging adults who are relatively independent may need help with routine activities such as doing laundry and changing the bedsheets. Our services help your loved one maintain a clean, healthy environment and allow them to remain living in their homes as long as possible.
Our caregivers can complete your loved one’s laundry start to finish, or provide assistance throughout the process so that as much independence as possible is maintained.
Having laundry done and linens changed on a regular basis alleviates stress on both the caregiver and the client so that more time can be spent enjoying the enriching aspects of older adulthood.
Additional Services
Light Housekeeping
We offer light housekeeping to help your loved one maintain a clean, organized, and safe home. Our services make it easier for them to stay comfortable and reduce the risk of falls or injuries.
Grocery Shopping
Whether your loved one needs assistance with shopping or requires a caregiver to handle it entirely, we can help. Our caregivers provide transportation, assist with shopping, and ensure that items are selected according to preferences. Note: Caregivers must be approved by SunnyCove Care for transportation.
Meal Preparation
Cooking can be challenging for older adults. We prepare healthy, delicious meals right in their homes, ensuring they have nutritious options without the stress of cooking. Meal preparation also provides companionship during the process.
Transportation
We ensure your loved one can get to appointments, errands, and social outings safely. Our caregivers serve as personal chauffeurs, reducing the risks associated with driving or public transport. Again, caregivers must be approved for transportation by SunnyCove Care.
Travel Companion
Traveling to see family or explore new places is still possible with our support. Our caregivers help maintain independence and make travel enjoyable. Transportation must be approved in advance by SunnyCove Care.
