Tranquil Touch Health does indeed offer services within assisted living facilities. Typically, staff members at these facilities care for multiple older adults during each shift. However, some families choose to hire a professional caregiver from Tranquil Touch Health to complement the assistance provided by the facility staff. As needs evolve, families can adjust the duration or frequency of care for their loved ones.
By having a Tranquil Touch Health caregiver, your loved one receives additional support to remain in their current residence while maintaining their existing level of care. This approach helps avoid the need for your loved one to relocate within the facility, where their independence might be limited, and daily care costs could be higher
Although Tranquil Touch Health’s’caregivers do not provide medical care, they offer professional personal care services for older adults dealing with Alzheimer’s disease and other medical conditions. Whether your loved one requires assistance with self-care tasks (such as grooming, bathing, dressing, meal preparation, shopping, and light housekeeping) or seeks companionship and social interaction, a Tranquil Touch Health caregiver can provide valuable support.
Many Tranquil Touch Health caregivers have personal or professional experience in Alzheimer’s care and other health conditions. Some have even pursued specialized care certifications from reputable industry organizations. Additionally, caregivers have access to specialized training through “Care Academy” covering conditions like dementia, congestive heart failure, and diabetes. If a caregiver observes problematic symptoms or changes in your loved one’s condition, they promptly alert a coordinator, who will then communicate relevant information to you.
Tranquil Touch Health recognizes that successful home care hinges on finding the right caregiver. Through the CareGivers’ Choice program, a care coordinator will personally get to know your loved one and provide a tailored recommendation to match them with the ideal caregiver.
Adjusting to an in-home caregiver can take time for older adults, as building trust and comfort is essential. However, if you ever feel that the current caregiver isn’t the right fit for any reason, don’t hesitate to reach out to your coordinator. They can recommend an alternative caregiver to better meet your needs.
