Because home is where the heart is, we help to ensure cleanliness and a sense of order through housekeeping services for seniors. Our caregivers assist elderly clients with daily household chores. Older adults often need just a little assistance keeping their home clean, tidy and safe. Although we are not a cleaning service, Extended Family Home Care caregivers are happy to assist with light housekeeping. These housekeeping services may include dusting, vacuuming, cleaning the kitchen, organizing closets, changing linens, washing laundry, ironing, and others. We understand that taking care of a home may become very challenging for a elderly individual and we are here to help through our in home senior care services. Our services go well beyond cleaning. We also do meal planning and preparation among a variety of other services.
With light housekeeping, we can relieve some of that burden and help your senior loved one keep their home comfortable and safe. If you have questions or requests about specific housekeeping services, give us a call at the number above. We would be happy to discuss your needs and assist with the upkeep of your elderly parent’s home.
