Our services are tailored to each situation, reflecting our commitment to supporting the families within our community.

Assess Your Needs

• Physical and Emotional Support: Do you need help with basic tasks like dressing, bathing, or using the bathroom? Are you experiencing mobility challenges, or do you need assistance with medication management?
• Health Conditions: Do you have chronic health conditions or disabilities that limit your ability to perform daily tasks independently (e.g., arthritis, Alzheimer’s, stroke recovery)?
• Mental Health: Are you feeling isolated, lonely, or experiencing mental health challenges that could benefit from having a caregiver assist you or offer companionship?

Level of Independence

• Mild vs. Significant Support: If you can still manage some activities independently but need occasional help, PSS care may be a good fit. If your needs are more complex (e.g., round-the-clock care), you may need a higher level of care, like nursing services.
