Non-Skilled Care
Non-Skilled Care fills the gap between skilled care and independence. Non-Skilled home Care services provide assistance with daily living activities that require no medical intervention. The typical Non-Skilled home Care client is anyone who, due to physical disability, advanced age, or mental deficiency, requires supervision and supportive services. Receiving care and companionship allows them to remain safely in the comfort of their own home.

- Dressing and bathing
- Preparation and serving meals
- Medication reminders
- Housekeeping, laundry, chores
- Companionship
- Transportation to appointments, errands & shopping

Provide clients with light housekeeping assistance such as doing laundry, vacuuming, kitchen and bathroom cleaning, meal preparation, shopping and other home management activities.
Companions/Sitter
Provide clients with supervision and companionship for those who DO NOT NEED "hands-on" assistance to perform their activities of daily living (ADLs). The Companion may encourage and supervise appropriate personal hygiene but may not bathe the client, for example. The Companion may, however, provide casual cosmetic assistance such as hair brushing or applying nail polish, may stabilize a client when walking by holding the client's arm or hand, and may also participate in activities such as letter writing, bill paying, games, taking walks and accompanying clients to doctor appointments.
