Get the Individualized Care You Need

Once you reach out to us, our seasoned experts will work with you and your family to craft a personalized care plan, selecting from our wide range of available options.

Personal Care

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

Companionship Care

We all know that seniors crave companionship and social interaction. For some, it’s the main reason they consider moving into assisted living or nursing homes. But for others, the idea of those places can be overwhelming and restrictive. That’s where TexMed’s Companionship Care services step in. This service, part of our Personal Care offerings, ensures that seniors get the companionship they need to stay active, joyful, and healthy.

Our friendly caregivers, who are carefully vetted, build close connections with their clients. They focus on keeping seniors engaged and active, which is vital for their mental and emotional well-being as they age.

Once we’ve thoughtfully paired your loved one with a companion who matches their personality and interests, that caregiver will plan and participate in enjoyable 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 find themselves in need of a helping hand with household chores for various reasons. Some may face physical limitations that make certain tasks unsafe, while others might struggle with remembering how to tackle them. At TexMed, our certified home health aides are here to ease your load by offering support to those who can’t manage light housework on their own.

Our caring caregivers, dedicated to preserving our clients’ independence, can lend a hand with the following Household Duties:

• Dusting and vacuuming

• Dining out with clients at restaurants
• Accompanying clients on appointments, errands, or social functions
• Assisting with general pet care
• Cleaning out and organizing closets
• Meal preparation and cleanup
• Taking out the trash

Meal Planning

As cognitive and physical health starts to change with age, planning meals can become a real challenge for seniors. Studies show that older adults living on their own are at a higher risk of malnourishment due to difficulties in meal prep and eating habits. Some also grapple with meeting their daily nutritional requirements because of health-related dietary restrictions prescribed by their doctors. That’s where our Meal Planning services step in.

With TexMed caregivers, it’s not just about helping with grocery shopping, cooking, and serving meals – we also offer essential nutritional guidance to assist clients in making healthier choices. This kind of support can be a game-changer for seniors dealing with conditions like diabetes, heart disease, or high blood pressure, helping them stay on course with their dietary goals.

Our senior meal assistance services are both affordable and reliable, covering:

• 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

Medication Supervision

Mistakes with medications lead many seniors to the emergency room every year. At TexMed, our trustworthy Medication Supervision services are here to keep aging adults healthy and out of harm’s way. Our program is all about helping seniors handle their meds, making sure they take the right doses at the right times. We also assist clients in staying on top of their medical appointments and offer them educational materials on various health subjects.

Here are some extra ways our experienced in-home caregivers can make your medication management a breeze:

• 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

IV therapy offers patients numerous advantages, making it a convenient and speedy way to get vital medications and treatments. Sometimes, it’s the only option for delivering these essential medical interventions. It’s a relatively safe and straightforward process, especially for patients who can’t or don’t want to take pills.

At TexMed Home Health, we’ve got a team of seasoned nurses all set to deliver top-notch care to patients in need of IV therapy. Our skilled nurses can administer treatments and medications with precision, speed, and reliability, ensuring that patients receive the highest level of care.

Occupational Therapy

Occupational therapy (OT) is a type of rehab that supports folks with disabilities in improving their skills, so they can take part in everyday activities and maintain as much independence as possible. One of its main aims is to assist patients in getting back to work, and it’s valuable for individuals with physical, mental, or emotional challenges.

For instance, someone who’s had a stroke might need guidance on redeveloping hand and arm dexterity, while someone dealing with chronic depression may require support in relearning social skills.

Here at TexMed Home Health, our highly skilled and experienced occupational therapists are here to help patients regain their ability to carry out daily tasks. Our Occupational Therapy services cover a wide range, from aiding someone in relearning how to eat, dress, use the restroom, or drive to teaching them adaptive techniques and utilizing helpful devices.

Physical Therapy

Physical therapy (PT) has a lot to offer folks recovering from injuries or surgeries, as well as those dealing with chronic health issues. When you’re grappling with pain, stiffness, or weakness, PT aims to boost your strength and mobility while enhancing your overall well-being.

At TexMed Home Health, we’ve got a range of Physical Therapy services ready to assist you or a loved one on the path to healing or managing a chronic condition. Whether you prefer inpatient or outpatient care, our team of seasoned therapists will collaborate with you to craft a tailored treatment plan that caters to your unique requirements.
