Sterling Elder Care Services

In-Home Elder Caregiving in Sterling, VA

Home health services are an appealing option for many seniors as an alternative to living in a nursing home, because through elder care services, they can “age in place.” This means your loved one can continue enjoying the familiarity and comforts of home while receiving the assistance they need to accomplish daily activities, getting reminders to take medication, or having someone to run their errands, among other things. Put simply, elder care services help seniors live as independently as possible while ensuring their continued safety and health.

Because every client we meet is different and there is no “one size fits all” approach to elder care, our team at Homewatch CareGivers of Sterling takes the time to get to know you and your family. During our initial meeting, we’ll assess the lifestyle and personal needs of your loved one so we can personalize our services and offer a unique care plan. This will offer you the peace of mind you need to know you’re leaving your senior friend or family member in capable hands – not to mention a friendly person who is there to encourage and empower them on a daily basis.

As we age, some things we used to be able to do without a second thought become more challenging. Tasks like carrying the grocery bags in from the car, or even simpler things around going up and downstairs, doing the laundry, or even opening jars can become much more of a burden and more tiring than ever. Luckily, our in-home caregivers can help with these difficulties and provide the assistance your loved one needs while still helping them preserve as much independence as possible.

Everyday elder care assistance includes the following and then some:

• Grocery shopping
• Laundry
• Light housekeeping
• Meal preparation

When you partner with our senior caregivers, you can also opt for 24-hour care, personal care, respite care, senior transportation, and companionship, among our other home care services.

In-Home Senior Care Plans Dedicate to Your Loved One’s Specific Needs

There are many benefits of hiring an elder care company, especially one that tailors its services to each client. The same cannot be said about a nursing home, simply because the staff-to-patient ratio is so wide that not every person can be attended to individually or as closely as a skilled caregiver can. Your loved one’s caregiver will be able to do plenty of activities that will meet their care needs, including helping remind them to go to important doctor’s appointments, ensure they are safe and healthy, and monitor their sleeping and eating habits to report back to the family.

Compassionate elder care can improve quality of life in the following ways:

• Personal Empowerment
• A Sense of Independence
• Companionship
• Overall Well-Being Observation

Hear from Our Satisfied Clients 

“My now 94-year old father has been receiving care from Homewatch Caregivers for over 4 years now. I've been incredibly pleased with both the care that he has received and with the responsiveness of the owners and the staff to any issues that arise. With very few exceptions, the caregivers have been fantastic, and I truly believe they have been responsible for keeping my very frail and chronically ill father safe, healthy, and out of the hospital during this time. Whenever I need something--such as a schedule change on my end--they quickly do whatever they can to accommodate it. And on the few occasions where problems have arisen--such as with a particular caregiver or a scheduling issue on their end--the owners and staff immediately take responsibility for the issue and address it promptly and professionally. I really couldn't ask for anything more from a home health agency.” - Larry S.

“Tim answered my call immediately and worked with us to get an assessment for my father the same morning. Assessment was done on time and care was found immediately. Each person I dealt with on the phone at Homewatch was kind compassionate, & skilled. Their communication is top-notch.” - Sally Eatmon
