Services
FirstLight’s senior care services allow older adults the freedom and independence to age gracefully in the place they call home.
Our caregivers deliver quality personal care services with care and respect, giving your family member the dignity and comfort he or she deserves. We understand how important your loved ones are. That’s why, at FirstLight, we do more.
In addition to helping with tasks such as personal hygiene, mobility and eating, FirstLight caregivers help their clients feel the joy in every day.
Bathing and Personal Hygiene
Good hygiene is important to overall health and well-being. Our senior personal assistant services assist adults with bathing, dressing, grooming, oral hygiene and more while still preserving their dignity.
Walking and Mobility
Many older adults can benefit from regular movement. FirstLight caregivers help with walking and mobility while carefully considering each client’s ability and capacity to move around, climb stairs and complete other routine movements.
Transfer and Posture Care
Our personal care services focus on making sure clients maintain proper posture while sitting to eat, read or watch television. This type of care also assists older adults with getting in and out of bed, a chair or a vehicle.
Continence and Toileting Care
It’s common for people to have difficulties using the restroom as they grow older. Our aides are trained in continence and toileting care as they understand how important this is for one’s comfort, self-esteem and social life.
Eating Assistance
FirstLight caregivers help with basic eating and drinking functions while also ensuring mealtimes are safe and comfortable.
