Long-Term Home Care Services
|
In recent years medical professionals have recognized that long-term home care results in better outcomes and happier lives for elders and the chronically ill. Home Care Services of Rhode Island helps make it possible for your loved one to remain home, where a safe, loving environment presents opportunities no institutional setting can offer.
HCSRI offers personal care, light housekeeping, transport to medical appointments (under certain circumstances) and more, allowing time for family caregivers to tend to other essentials and other personal and family needs. Having a Health Care Services professional assisting in the home has been shown to reduce caregiver stress as well as produce benefits to the overall health of the patient.

Unsurpassed Services and Quality Care
|
|
Entrusting the care of a loved one to a non-family member can be emotionally difficult. Home Care Services understands this, so before our nurses and CNAs become part of the HCSRI family, they go through a strict selection and scrutinization process. HCSRI also uses the most up-to-date national databases where certifications are verified and backgrounds are checked. Each candidate is given additional training, particular to HCSRI standards and expectations. In-home observations assure that services are properly done and procedures are adhered to.

They do all the coordinating and scheduling of additional help when it’s required and really go the extra mile...

They are so familiar with what has to be done that I can leave to run errands, keep medical and dental appointments, and even get to a health club once in a while...
