Common Questions
Personal Care FAQ
- Is personal care the same as home health care?
- No. Personal care is non-medical assistance with daily living activities: bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility. Home health care involves medical services like wound care or physical therapy, which require a doctor's order. Happy to Help provides non-medical personal care only.
- Will my loved one feel comfortable with a personal care aide?
- We understand this is a sensitive transition. Our caregivers are trained in respectful, dignity-preserving techniques, and we carefully match based on personality and preferences. Most clients feel comfortable within the first few visits.
- Can personal care be combined with other services?
- Absolutely. Many families combine personal care with companion care, meal preparation, or respite care into a single visit. Your care plan is customized to include exactly what your loved one needs.
- What training do your personal care aides receive?
- All caregivers complete training in safe transfer techniques, fall prevention, infection control, and ADL assistance. They are also trained in communication skills for working with clients who have cognitive challenges or limited mobility.
