Supportive Private Care, Homecare Phoenix

Supportive Private Care

Supportive private care is care provided in the home by trained caregivers. This care is available to clients living in private homes, group homes, apartments, assisted living complexes or other senior housing environments. Unlike other home care agencies, Nightingale assures that Registered Nurses are available around the clock to supervise all of this care. Supportive private care is very flexible and designed to meet most of the needs of daily life. It can be provided in conjunction with medical or “skilled” home care, Many clients seek supportive care to enable them to continue to reside safely in their own home. Clients can get assistance with many activities, including:

  • Meal preparation
  • Shopping and errands
  • Light housekeeping
  • Laundry
  • Vital signs measurement and reporting to a nurse
  • Bathing, dressing and using the bathroom
  • Exercise
  • Medication reminders
  • Making household arrangements, such as getting home repairs made
  • Caring for pets
  • Transportation to medical or other appointments
  • Accompaniment to recreational activities
  • Companionship

Many family caregivers need to arrange short-term care for their loved one so that they can attend a family function or special event, go on a much needed vacation, or just have a day off. Some clients wish to have a caregiver traveling with them on trips. Many need to arrange care indefinitely after an illness or injury. The supportive care available from Nightingale Homecare is tailored to the needs of each situation, whether care is needed intermittently, continuously, for a short time or over the course of many years.
