Homemaking consists of general household activities (meal preparation and routine household care) to maintain an adequate living environment that is provided by our trained homemaker, when the the individual regularly responsible for these activities is temporarily absent or unable to manage the home and care for him or herself or others in the home Each homemaker is expertly trained to provide care in a way that is discreet and respectful of your personal boundaries. They undertake extensive training where they learn the importance of enabling your dignity and independence at all times. Loneliness is a human enemy, is it not? If you’ve heard the adage, “no man is an island”, that pretty much sums up the negative implications of living alone. Apparently, this scenario becomes common as someone reaches the senior years. With retirement, adult children, and elderly peers, the home suddenly feels like an empty nest. When your elderly family member is still well able to care for themselves, cook their meals, or do errands, they can still get the support of homemakers who can do tasks that are not doable in their age and strength. Consider the following benefits of providing a homemaker assistant to your loved one:

• Nutrition The homemaker can go grocery shopping with and prepare healthy meals for your elderly family member. Yes, nutrition is even more necessary even at advanced years. They need all the balanced meals they can get in order to manage daily activities with the strength of their season.
• Sanitation The homemaker can also assist in cleaning and sanitizing the homes. They can do the laundry of bed linens and elderly clothing, sanitize bathrooms and eating utensils, and vacuum the carpet floor, among others. Sanitation is crucial for an elderly as their immune system is no longer as strong in protecting them from infection.
• Safety The homemaker can assist a senior person in activities that promote their safety. In tasks such as lifting heavy items or moving furniture, or even driving the car, the elderly could be at risk of falls or accidents that could inhibit their independence. Having someone to assist them in these areas contributes to their safety.
• Companionship The homemaker can also provide quality companionship to your senior loved one.
• Community The homemaker can also provide the sense of community life in a senior person’s years. Have someone to talk to and do things with can enhance the social needs of your elderly loved one and which can make them interested to engage in activities outside the home.
