Personal Care Services in Ontario
At Staff Relief, we understand how important it is for seniors to age in the comfort of their own home.
Maintaining a sense of independence and performing the routine tasks of daily living, such as bathing, tending to personal hygiene, light housekeeping and getting ready for the day can become difficult as health changes. Our family caregivers are ready to provide the necessary personalized home care services to support your loved one's comfort and dignity.
WHAT ARE PERSONAL CARE SERVICES?
Personal care services for seniors involve supporting and supervising the personal tasks of daily life, including private hygiene and toileting, along with dressing and maintaining your personal appearance.
Personal care can include tasks of a personal nature. This may include personal hygiene tasks, such as bathing, showering, applying creams and lotions, dressing, and toileting – extending to continence management and general laundry, meal preparation and feeding, and other day-to-day duties to help people live well in the comfort of their own homes.
When it comes to personal care services, our experienced staff provide care on all levels. As they get to know you or your loved one in need, a detailed personal care plan will outline likes and dislikes in order to make everyone feel the most comfortable and at ease. Particular tasks, such as shaving or diabetic foot care will be part of the support and come with specific instructions for your caregiver.
Each caregiver is highly trained to provide personal care in a discreet and respectful way while keeping personal boundaries in mind. They undertake extensive training to learn the importance of enabling dignity and independence at all times.

Bathing and showering, including bed-baths
Applying lotions and creams as required
Dressing and getting ready for bed
Oral hygiene
Hair care and cosmetics
Support with shaving

OPTIONS FOR PERSONAL HOME CARE SERVICES
Personal care services are built around individual needs and personal routines. If you wash before breakfast to get ready for the day, or prefer to have a bath before going to bed, the caregiver will help follow your schedule, supporting the way you want to live. Schedules to accommodate these needs can be discussed in detail ahead of time to set you up for success!
There are many different options when it comes to personal care services at home, and making a choice that best fits your lifestyle can be difficult. You can have a visiting caregiver who visits your home at set times of day, or even overnight, to provide the support you or your loved one needs. If you require ongoing support there are live in caregiver options, where an individual lives in the home with you, so that they can remain close by and provide ongoing care. Also, there is a 24-hour care option for live out caregivers.
Personal caregivers, such as personal support workers (PSW’s) or nurses / nursing staff, also assist with support in many other tasks, in addition to their personal care services. There can be assistance with medication administration or reminders, help with mobility to move safely around the home, prepare meals, assist with household chores and even offer companionship.
Staff Relief is here to support your decisions and our caregivers are there when you need us. If you would like to discuss what type of support we can assist you with at home please contact us to go over the options that best suit you.
