For individuals battling cancer, the simplest daily tasks can become monumental challenges. The profound fatigue from treatment, the pain from the disease, or the recovery from surgery can make activities like bathing, dressing, or preparing a meal feel impossible. Afair Healthcare’s Personal In-Home Cancer Care service is designed to provide dignified, hands-on assistance with these activities of daily living (ADLs), enabling our clients in Killeen, Temple, Harker Heights, Nolanville, Belton, Copperas Cove, Georgetown, Jarrell, Liberty Hill, Hutto, Florence, & Taylor to remain comfortable and independent in their own homes.
Our professional caregivers are trained to provide this intimate level of support with the utmost respect, compassion, and sensitivity. We understand that needing help with personal care can be difficult, and our goal is to make the experience as comfortable and empowering as possible.
Personal care involves the hands-on tasks that are essential for health, hygiene, and daily life. For a cancer patient, this support is critical for maintaining a sense of normalcy, preventing complications like skin infections, and preserving energy for healing.
Our personal care services are always delivered with a focus on the client’s comfort and preferences. We work to build a trusting relationship, ensuring that our clients feel safe and respected at all times.
Our caregivers can provide a wide range of assistance, tailored to the specific needs and mobility level of each client. These services include:
Providing standby assistance for safety or hands-on help with bathing, ensuring skin is cleaned gently and thoroughly.
•Assisting with dressing and undressing, which can be difficult due to fatigue or limited mobility after surgery.
•Helping with grooming tasks like hair care and shaving to help the client feel their best.
•Providing sensitive and dignified assistance with getting to and from the bathroom.
•For clients with incontinence, we provide respectful and hygienic care to protect skin integrity and maintain comfort.
•Helping clients move safely around their home, from getting out of bed in the morning to settling into a favorite chair.
•Using proper techniques to safely transfer clients from a bed to a wheelchair or walker, reducing the risk of falls for both the client and the family caregiver.
For clients who have difficulty eating, we can provide gentle encouragement and assistance with feeding.
Providing personal care to a cancer patient requires more than just a willing pair of hands. It requires specialized knowledge and a deep well of compassion.
Understanding Treatment Side Effects: Our caregivers know that a client’s skin may be extra sensitive after radiation, or that they may have a port that needs to be protected during bathing.
Infection Control: We adhere to strict hygiene protocols to protect our immunocompromised clients from infection.
Preserving Dignity: Our caregivers are masters of their craft. They know how to provide assistance in a way that preserves the client’s dignity and promotes their independence wherever possible.
From the military veterans in Killeen and Copperas Cove to the seniors in Georgetown and Belton, we are committed to providing a level of personal care that is both professional and profoundly human.
For family members, providing personal care to a parent or spouse can be emotionally and physically challenging. It can strain relationships and lead to caregiver burnout. Bringing in a professional caregiver can restore balance to the family dynamic, allowing you to focus on providing love and emotional support, rather than being a hands-on provider of all care.
