Mobility Assistance
Maintaining independence at home is dependent upon maintaining mobility. Our trusted caregivers help those with limited mobility due to an illness or injury with assistance walking, transferring, repositioning and using mobility aids. We support clients in performing daily activities while limiting the chances for slip and fall injuries. Mobility assistance extends beyond tasks at home; our caregivers can also support you with daily activities and social engagements outside your home.
Types of Mobility Assistance
As you age or your abilities change, navigating your home can become more difficult. This is especially true if you have a multi-level home. Our caregivers are specially trained in safe mobility techniques and fall prevention. We make it safer to stick to your daily routine by providing a range of mobility assistance services, including:
- Transferring from the bed to a chair or toilet
- Assistance with walking or using mobility aids
- Help navigating stairs or narrow spaces such as hallways
- Standing and repositioning with support
- Safe supervision during movement throughout the home
Who Needs Mobility Support
No two clients are alike, and we tailor all our services according to your needs and abilities. These services are ideal for:
- Seniors with balance or strength issues
- Individuals recovering from surgery or illness
- Adults with arthritis, Parkinson’s, or other limited mobility conditions
Benefits of Mobility Assistance
When you have properly trained caregivers providing mobility assistance, you drastically reduce the chance of injury due to a slip or fall, enhance mobility around the home, and increase confidence in daily tasks. Mobility services may be needed temporarily as you’re recovering from an injury or surgery. In other cases, mobility issues become a permanent concern, in which case our caregivers can adapt their level of assistance to suit your needs as abilities decline. Mobility services also offer a safe way to learn how to use new mobility aids, such as a walker, cane, or bathroom handrails. Navigate your home with total peace of mind and improve your quality of life when you choose Dahabo Home Care for mobility assistance.
