What our Residential Health Care Aides Do.
Personal Care
Our aides can help the patient with bathing, including helping the patient get in and out of the bath, or helping the patient wash themselves. If requested our aides can assist with beauty and bathroom use.
Housekeeping
Sometimes a patient may want or need light housekeeping assistant, including dusting, vacuuming, sweeping, organizing and or even washing dishes. These chores are things that the patient is ordinarily unable to do by themselves.
Daily Activities of Patient
It is important to keep a log of the daily activities of the patient, for both the family and the physician. Our Aides will track and document the daily activities of the patient. This may include meals eaten and housework performed, or if the patient and aide left the home at any time. In some cases, other health care initiatives may also need to be documented.
Errands
Vitalis Healthcare Residential Health Aides may assist the patient with arranging errands, such as meals on wheels or grocery delivery services.
Meal Preparation
Our Residential Health Aides can help prepare meals if requested. This may include breakfast, lunch and dinner, depending on the aide’s hours.
Personal Care Services
Our Personal Companion Care Service helps those who are in a situation where they need assistance to be able to go about their daily living activities yet they may not need the level of continuous nursing care provided by a nursing home. Many of our patients use these service because it allows them to stay in their own home and receive the proper care they need. Our Personal Care Aides will coordinate your care with your family member and physician as needed. Our registered nurse will first evaluate your needs in your home, and subsequently use that assessment to draw up a care plan and monitor closely your progress.
