Assistance with personal hygiene
Our team specializes in personal hygiene services that emphasize compassionate support. We are here to assist individuals at all levels of autonomy loss, both physical and cognitive. Caregivers are ready to offer a comprehensive range of services, including assistance with showering, incontinence care, changing undergarments, teeth brushing, hairstyling, shaving, dressing, and undressing.
Our approach is adaptable to the specific needs of every individual. It can be limited to partial assistance, wherein our Caregivers supervise and provide targeted help, such as washing a specific part of the body or assisting with getting into the shower. Assistance can also be more comprehensive, for example by providing complete hygiene care in bed for bedridden individuals. Our Amika Caregivers are trained in the principles of safe and secure body movement while providing personalized hygiene care. They guide clients throughout the process, offering support and comfort to promote acceptance and well-being. Moreover, they are skilled in the use of equipment such as shower benches, transfer benches, and grab bars.
A session of assistance with personal hygiene usually lasts from 30 minutes to 1 hour. This service is often part of a more comprehensive home care package, including services such as assistance for getting up and going to bed, dressing assistance, support with exercise and staying active, as well as other household tasks like meal assistance and light housekeeping.
Our rates vary depending on the duration of the visit and the geographical area. Whether you need our services for an hour or entire days, our team of Caregivers is there to support you.
Financial assistance is available for all our services. Feel free to contact us to learn more about our rates and financial aid options.
