Household responsibilities can become difficult to keep up with when aging, mobility limitations, or other changes make routine chores more physically demanding. Homemaker support may be appropriate for adults and seniors who remain at home but need assistance managing ordinary household responsibilities that they can no longer consistently handle on their own. It can also help when family members want to assist but cannot regularly manage household tasks because of their own schedules or responsibilities. For clients in Hardy, Virginia, this support can be incorporated into scheduled home visits based on the household priorities identified for the individual.
How It Works
Household support focuses on routine chores and errands that the client may have difficulty completing independently, helping address the practical responsibilities that come with maintaining a home:
- Organizing clothing in closets
- Pet care
- Bathroom cleaning
- Dusting household surfaces
- Laundry
- Watering plants
- Mailing letters
- Washing dishes
- Changing bed linens
- Grocery shopping
- Pharmacy errands
- Transportation to appointments
- Running errands for the client
- Folding clothes
What to Expect
Homemaker support is organized around the household responsibilities that have become difficult for the client to manage independently. During scheduled visits, the caregiver completes the agreed household tasks and errands within the scope of the service arrangement. Priorities may vary from one visit to another depending on the client’s circumstances and which household responsibilities require attention.
