Household Duties

Assisting Seniors with Household Duties is Our Specialty

The older population is growing rapidly, and with that growth comes a greater need for assistance with household duties.

A recent study by the National Institute on Aging found that nearly 60% of seniors aged 65 and older needed help with at least one basic task such as bathing, dressing, or getting around inside their homes. That’s a lot of people who could use some extra assistance.

There are many reasons why seniors need help with household duties. Some may be physically unable to do certain tasks, while others may have difficulty remembering how to do them. Still others may find it difficult to get around their homes safely. Whatever the reason, it’s clear that there is a great need for more home health aides to assist the elderly population.

Our Caregivers Remove the Housework Burden from You

TexMed Personal Care provides light housekeeping for those who are unable to do it themselves. This can include anything from dusting and vacuuming to changing bed sheets and doing the dishes. By providing this service, TexMed Personal Care helps its clients maintain their independence while still living in their own homes. Our caregivers can assist with the following household duties:

• Dusting and vacuuming
• Laundry and ironing

• Dining out with your loved one at restaurants
• Providing companionship at appointments, on errands or at social functions
• Assisting with general pet care
• Cleaning out and organizing closets

One of the benefits of using TexMed Personal Care’s light housekeeping services is that it allows clients to remain in their own homes. This is important because research has shown that people who live in their own homes tend to have a better quality of life than those who live in nursing homes or other institutional settings. In addition, by remaining in their own home, clients can save money on things like food, utilities, and transportation.
