Personal Care

Our non-medical in-home eldercare services include the following:

Companionship Care

Recognizing the importance of companionship and socialization for seniors, we understand that some individuals prefer to age in the comfort of their own homes rather than move to assisted living communities or nursing homes. At TexMed, we offer Companionship Care services as part of our Personal Care portfolio, providing seniors with the companionship they need to lead active, happy, and healthy lives.

Our caregivers undergo thorough screening processes to ensure they are reliable and compassionate. They develop close bonds with their clients, keeping them engaged and involved in life, which is essential for maintaining mental and emotional well-being as they age.

Upon careful consideration, we match your loved one with a companion who is uniquely qualified to meet their personality and interests. This companion will actively participate in a variety of healthy activities, including:

• Meal preparation with a focus on nutrition
• Crafts, scrapbooking, and playing games for mental stimulation.
• Going on outings together to encourage human interaction.
• Discussing life experiences while reminiscing about past events
• Conversing about current and historic topics for memory enhancement
• Outdoor activities like gardening or other yard work
• Walking outside or other forms of exercise that promote overall body and mind health.

Household Duties

Aging adults often require assistance with household chores for various reasons. Physical limitations or difficulties with memory can make it challenging for them to safely perform certain tasks. At TexMed, our certified home health aides are here to alleviate your burden by providing support to individuals who are unable to manage light housework on their own.

With the goal of promoting independence, our compassionate caregivers can assist with a range of household duties, including:

Meal Planning

Seniors may face challenges in meal planning due to cognitive decline and declining physical health. Studies show that older adults living alone are more susceptible to malnutrition due to difficulties in meal preparation and poor eating habits. Additionally, health conditions may require dietary restrictions recommended by doctors. This is where our Meal Planning services at TexMed come into play.

Our caregivers are trained to assist with grocery shopping, meal preparation, and serving food, ensuring that seniors receive the nourishment they need. Furthermore, our caregivers provide valuable nutritional counseling to help clients make informed choices and maintain dietary goals, especially for those managing conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or high blood pressure.

Our senior meal assistance services are both affordable and dependable, encompassing:

• Recipe research and meal planning (Including your loved one’s favorite dishes!)
• Grocery shopping
• Caloric monitoring and proper nutrition
• Meal preparation
• Establishing an appealing eating environment

At TexMed, we understand the importance of medication safety for aging adults, which is why we offer reliable Medication Supervision services. Our program is specifically designed to assist seniors in managing their medications, ensuring they take the prescribed doses at the appropriate times. Additionally, we help clients stay organized by keeping track of their medical appointments and providing educational materials on various health topics.

Our professional in-home caregivers can further streamline your medication management program by offering the following services:

• Setting up an organizational pillbox
• Ensuring proper medication storage
• Logging and reporting medication use
• Prescription refill reminders and pickups

Home Health

Delivered by licensed medical professionals, we also offer these more specialized in-home services:

Intravenous Therapy

V therapy, also known as intravenous therapy, involves the direct delivery of medication or treatments into a patient’s vein. This can be accomplished using a needle inserted into the arm or a catheter accessing a larger vein in the body. IV therapy is commonly used for administering fluids, medications, blood transfusions, and other necessary treatments.

There are several benefits associated with IV therapy. It allows patients to receive essential medications and treatments rapidly and effectively. In certain situations, it may be the only viable method for delivering specific treatments and medications. IV therapy is generally considered safe and convenient, particularly for individuals who are unable to take oral medications.

TexMed Home Health takes pride in its team of experienced nurses who specialize in providing high-quality care to patients requiring IV therapy. Our skilled nurses are proficient in administering treatments and medications with precision, efficiency, and reliability. Rest assured that our priority is to ensure patients receive optimal care throughout their IV therapy journey.

Occupational Therapy

is a rehabilitative approach aimed at assisting individuals with disabilities in regaining and enhancing their skills to actively engage in daily activities and achieve greater independence. One of the primary objectives of occupational therapy is to support patients in returning to work. OT is beneficial for individuals with physical, mental, or emotional impairments.

For example, someone who has experienced a stroke may require assistance in redeveloping hand and arm coordination, while an individual coping with chronic depression may benefit from guidance in reestablishing social interactions.

At TexMed Home Health, our team of highly skilled and experienced occupational therapists is dedicated to helping patients regain their functional abilities for everyday tasks.
