Seniors caring for your parents - so they can stay in their home.
It’s highly likely that your parent and his or her caregiver will share similar interests. That’s because at SeniorCare, many of the caregivers are people who are themselves heading toward their senior years.
Your mum or dad will feel more comfortable, because they’ll know their caregiver truly understands their needs. Someone who appreciates that taking the time to sit down for a friendly cuppa and chat is just as important as getting the washing done. It’s a common ground from which great friendships can grow.
Care that’s tailored to suit your parents
Your parent’s needs are unique. So we’ll customise a plan especially for them. They may want someone to do light housework, cook meals or to call in a couple of times a week to take them shopping and have a cup of tea.
We’ll meet with you (and your mum and dad) to discuss exactly what’s needed and come back with a free appraisal.
This will clearly detail the specific services required and any special instructions or preferences. It also ensures that your parent’s caregiver knows exactly what is expected and provides a convenient way for your parents to monitor the service they receive.
Quality to give you peace of mind
Our caregivers love what they do. So you and your parents can be sure that they’re receiving the respect, understanding and assistance they deserve.
For your added peace of mind, we run a complete background and police check on all our caregivers.
And for your peace of mind we’ll take the time to ensure they’re matched with a like minded caregiver.
Care that helps your parents enjoy their independence
• Remember when you were a kid and your mum was always at you to clean your room? What about when you got the flu, or chicken pox. They were always there to look after you.
• Now, as your parents are getting into their later years, have you noticed that when you visit, their home isn’t quite as spic and span as it once was?
• That the garden seems to have a few more weeds than normal?
• They may have suffered an injury, or have an illness (have you noticed how even a common cold can really knock them?). Or perhaps it’s all getting a wee bit too much for them.
• It’s not that your mum or dad needs to leave their home and be put into a "home". After all, they still value their independence. It’s just that you’re too busy or too far away to call in and help on a regular basis.
• Now, your mum or dad can have the best of both worlds. They can continue to enjoy their independence in their own home, AND have a mature, caring provider regularly visit to do those things that have become too much of a chore – like cleaning the house, cooking meals, tidying the section, going to the shops, bathing and making sure medication is being taken.
• It’s a weight off their mind – and yours.
• It’s called SeniorCare, a new service from HomeCare NZ. It’s all about seniors helping seniors when you can’t be there.
