Assisting with daily routines, promoting independence through personal care

When bathing, dressing, grooming, using the restroom, or moving around the home becomes difficult, having assistance with personal routines can help a person manage these parts of the day with appropriate support. This type of care may be relevant for seniors, adults recovering from an illness or procedure, people living with chronic conditions or disabilities, and individuals who need additional help at home while maintaining their usual routines. In Accokeek, Maryland, support may be provided in the home environment where these everyday needs occur, allowing care to be incorporated into the person’s regular schedule.

How It Works

Personal care may include assistance with routine activities such as:

Bathing, showering, and personal hygiene
Dressing and changing clothes
Grooming, including hair care and oral hygiene
Toileting and continence-related routines
Eating and drinking assistance when needed
Moving safely between areas of the home and with routine mobility

What to Expect

The level of assistance can vary depending on the person’s circumstances, abilities, and the type of help needed with daily routines. Care is generally provided in the home during agreed-upon periods, with support focused on the activities that require assistance rather than taking over tasks the person can manage independently. As needs change, the type or amount of assistance may be reviewed and adjusted based on the person’s circumstances and applicable care arrangements.
