About Senior Helpers®:
Senior Helpers® is the nation’s premier provider of in-home, non-medical senior care services, offering specialized support for individuals living with Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and other conditions, as well as personal care and companion care for those who need assistance with daily activities. Their services are flexible and completely customizable, allowing each personalized care plan to combine different aspects of their care offerings based on the individual needs of each client.
When a family first contacts a Senior Helpers office, the process begins with a complimentary initial assessment in the client’s home to better understand their needs and develop an individualized care plan. When needed, a qualified staff member, social worker, or registered nurse may conduct a more detailed assessment, depending on state regulations, to further guide the care plan. This assessment is then used in the caregiver matching process to help select the most appropriate caregiver for each client.
Senior Helpers® also elevates its care through three key programs: the proprietary LIFE Profile assessment tool, the Senior Gems® program, and the Senior Helpers Center of Excellence training spaces. LIFE Profile is a research-based technology tool that uses data to help identify a client’s risk of hospitalization. Senior Gems® provides effective strategies for supporting and caring for loved ones from normal aging through late-stage dementia, focusing on what is precious and unique about each senior at every stage.
The Senior Helpers® Center of Excellence is a training space designed to simulate a client’s home, allowing caregivers to learn in a real-world environment and demonstrate their ability to provide the highest quality care in the home setting.
