At Eliteservices Homecare, we know that many infections and diseases can be effectively controlled or prevented by practicing good personal hygiene. Personal hygiene habits include daily activities like bathing, oral care, regular hand washing, and others.
When seniors and other individuals with limiting conditions are no longer able to effectively handle their personal care, it can affect their dignity and self-esteem.
We believe that dignity is a fundamental human right which, when taken away by aging, illnesses, and other conditions, can trigger feelings of low self-worth, declining emotional (and sometimes mental) health, and poor relationships.
This is because poor hygiene not only comes with poor health, but also comes with unkemptness and bad odor, which can trigger social bullying, embarrassment, and self-isolation.
Our personal care services in Cumberland County, and its surroundings are meant to help seniors and other needy individuals to regain their independence and dignity without having to leave the safety and comfort of their own homes or the places they hold dear.
