In-Home Long-Term Care

If you are contemplating the possibility of staying in your home for an extended period, Just Like Family Home Care is ready to provide guidance as you navigate through this process. Our compassionate caregivers are committed to supporting individuals, such as yourself, within their own residences. Their primary goal is to enhance your well-being and autonomy, ultimately preventing the need for relocation to a more expensive assisted living environment. By choosing our services, you can continue living in the familiarity of your own space, receiving exceptional care and assistance from our experienced caregiving team.

The benefits of staying home are:

  • Financial, as you and your family save on care expenses.

  • Improved mental and emotional well-being.

  • The safety of being at home where there’s reduced exposure to communicable illness.

Respite Care

Respite care services are essential for individuals who have made the wise choice to allocate time for self-care. It is crucial to prevent becoming excessively stressed and ultimately burned out, as this can be emotionally exhausting and have adverse effects on your overall health. Unfortunately, these circumstances can result in a reduction in the quality of care you offer to your loved one. Thus, engaging in respite care is truly a selfless decision! By taking a break, you can rejuvenate yourself for your own well-being and that of your loved one. When you feel ready to take some much-needed time off, please inform us, and we will handle the rest of the arrangements for you.

Post-Operative Care

Our compassionate caregivers are committed to assisting individuals like yourself within the comforts of their own residences. We prioritize ensuring your safety and fostering your independence, ultimately helping you steer clear of the need to relocate to an assisted living facility. With our proficient caregiving squad, you can look forward to receiving attentive care and reliable support, enabling you to gracefully navigate the healing process while residing securely in your own home.

Hospice / End-Of-Life Care

Our compassionate caregivers establish a close partnership with hospice team members to guarantee that your beloved family member receives attentive care and remains at ease. In addition to aiding with medication management, hygiene, and incontinence care, our caregivers prioritize providing companionship by offering comforting gestures like holding a hand, adjusting bedding, and reading to your loved one.

Nurse Delegated Care

We ensure safe care through nurse delegation for those needing more help than non-medical agencies offer. Delegated nurses manage medication and supervise caregivers per Washington state regulations, ensuring that our clients receive the highest quality of care tailored to their specific needs while promoting a sense of security and well-being in the comfort of their own homes.

The Nurse Delegator's role is to:

  • Ensure that the laws relating to delegation are properly followed

  • Conduct an in-person assessment of caregivers' abilities to safely and effectively provide various delegated services

  • Offer training to ensure continued quality control of services 

Benefits of Caregivers

Caregivers provide invaluable support and companionship to individuals who require assistance with daily tasks and personal care. Their presence not only ensures the safety and well-being of clients but also offers emotional and social stimulation. Additionally, caregivers play a crucial role in promoting independence and enhancing the quality of life for those under their care. With their dedication and expertise, caregivers contribute significantly to the overall health and happiness of individuals who rely on their services.

  • Bathing refreshes, relaxes, cleanses, and boosts circulation for well-being.

  • We can help with dressing assistance, help wash and comb hair, trim nails, shave the face and apply creams - all the daily things that help our clients feel good about themselves, and their appearance.

  • Just Like Family Home Care provides only non-medical care. For that reason, our caregivers are not allowed to administer medications but can assist our clients by opening the medication containers, reading labels to ensure the correct medication and dosage are taken, overseeing the refill of daily containers, or simply reminding clients that it’s time to take medication.

  • Many seniors do not have the opportunity to eat a well-balanced meal. Our professional caregivers are trained to prepare hot meals that are both nutritious and delicious. Healthy eating promotes healthy living, and that is what we strive to achieve.

  • Caregivers will shop with or without the client accompanying them. They can shop at any store the client prefers, and can use any coupons provided.

  • Our caregivers will accompany clients on trips to doctor appointments, beauty salons/barbershops, shopping, religious services, club meetings, and outings – anywhere they wish to go. Part of healthy living is being able to explore the world, and continuous exposure to the outdoors is good for the mind, body, and soul.

  • A clean home is a happy home. Our caregivers understand the importance of sanitary living and are committed to doing everything possible to keep you in a clean living environment. Light housekeeping includes vacuuming, dusting, sweeping and mopping floors, cleaning bathrooms, kitchens, and appliances, taking out the trash, straightening all rooms, organizing closets and drawers, cleaning any interior windows that can be reached without a ladder, as well as care of house plants, changing linens and making beds.

  • Moving or placing a person into a correct posture position encourages the functional activity of the body’s many systems. It assists in eliminating pressure areas on the skin, reducing atrophy and stiffening of muscles, encourages proper breathing, digestion, and elimination.

  • Regular physical activity and exercise are vital to a healthy lifestyle. The benefits of movement to both physical and mental health are seen in everyday life. Those who keep a physically active lifestyle tend to benefit by increasing stamina, strengthening the heart, lowering blood pressure, and improving digestion and sleep.
