1. Home
Duties
Caregiver

2. Home caregivers assist seniors with
important household and personal
routines that are necessary for
maintaining a healthy lifestyle in the
home and community. Seniors can
enjoy the comfort and familiarity of
their homes with the support of
home care.

3. Personal
C a r e
Home care providers help seniors maintain their
independence by providing support with personal
care routines. Caregivers assist with ordinary tasks,
such as bathing, grooming, and dressing. Other
duties may include reminding clients to take
medications and helping with various personal
hygiene tasks like using the bathroom.

4. Meal
Preparation
Many seniors lose motivation to prepare and eat
healthy meals when living alone. They are more
inclined to eat when meals are prepared for them.
Home caregivers plan a healthy menu giving
attention to the dietary needs and preferences of
their clients. They prepare nutritious meals and
take care of the food preparation clean up.
Caregivers manage the household food inventory
making sure to throw away perishable foods in a
timely manner and checking expirations dates on
containers.

5. Light
Housekeeping
Home care providers help senior citizens maintain
a comfortable and healthy home by doing light
housework. Housekeeping duties include making
beds, changing the linens when needed, and
washing the laundry. Sometimes light dusting and
vacuuming or sweeping are required. The caregiver
will take out the garbage and prepare for garbage
collection.

6. Transportation
Seniors with home care benefit from provided
transportation. Social activity is an important
component of an independent lifestyle. Caregivers
provide transportation to appointments for personal
care, medical care, and social or religious activities.
Transporting clients to social activities is an especially
rewarding part of home care. Seniors enjoy going to
social functions with their caregiver. Home care
providers and their clients develop friendships as they
attend community activities together.

7. Running
E r r a n d s
In addition to providing transportation, caregivers
run errands such as grocery shopping and picking
up prescriptions and dry cleaning. They also help
seniors with remembering appointments and keep
their calendars up to date. They may pick up and
organize the mail as needed.

8. Companion
s h i p
Perhaps the most important of all the caregiving
duties is providing companionship. While performing
household and personal care tasks, home care
providers give needed attention and validation to
their clients. They listen, visit, and participate in the
daily lives of their senior citizen friends.
Companionship makes physical and mental exercise
more enjoyable. Seniors who enjoy spending time
with their caregivers are more independent and
happy overall. They may play cards or board games
together at home and join other seniors in social
activities in the community.
Home care can extend a senior's independence and
preserve their lifestyle within the home and personal
community. Quality caregivers provide compassionate
support and stability to senior citizens in their homes.
