Personal assistance is a subcategory of home health care. It refers to the personal matters in life that need attending to that many seniors find difficult to manage on their own or forget about. From organizing mail and light housekeeping to grocery shopping and running errands, these are all tasks that could be classified as personal assistance and are part of practical home health care services.

Home Care Assistance
Simply managing the activities of daily living can become a disheartening obstacle for some. Daily tasks such as showering or bathing, dressing, grooming, or physical exercise are essential at any time of life but can be life-changing for mature adults or individuals with disabilities.

Companions can also assist with grocery shopping, light housekeeping, and maintaining communication with family members.
Coordination of Care
Establishing a care plan for your older adult loved one or family member with disabilities requires a skill set that most relatives simply don’t possess. Our team can help you establish a level of care that makes living independently at home easier and safer while meeting the unique needs of each client.[1]
From discussing complex topics and making home visits to address mental and emotional concerns, coordinate medical services, and arrange long-term support, we’ll collaborate with you to build a practical and effective plan of action.
Heavenly can support your care plan with making referrals to hospice, home health, physicians, etc. in order to holistically approach our client’s care needs.

Frequently Asked Questions About In-Home Care
What’s The Difference Between Palliative Care And Hospice Care?
In palliative care, the patient’s underlying illnesses can still be treated with procedures or medication. Hospice is considered comfort care for symptom management and quality of life improvements only.[3]
Can I Choose My Caregiver?
It’s difficult to know who is a good fit based on a photo, a resume, or a website bio. That’s why we created our proprietary caregiver matching algorithm, HeavenlyMatchTM that is sure to connect a skill and value-aligned caregiver for each family. All caregivers also undergo a rigorous interview process and thorough background checks.
Are Visits From Home Health Care Providers Covered By Insurance?
They can be! You or your loved one may be eligible for coverage from Medicare, Medicaid, or your regular insurance provider. The most commonly covered service is when there is a need for skilled care for a short period and it has been ordered by your doctor.
Generally, Personal Care Services are not covered by insurance. However, Heavenly Care works with Long Term Care Insurance and VA Aid in Attendance, which are two forms of financial support for Personal Care Services and In Home Care.
