Our Home Care Services
Companionship
Over the course of our lives, we have made our homes to be a safe space and tailored it exactly how we want it to look and feel. We have also set routines that feel familiar. However as we get older, we may find it hard to keep up with certain routines. At MerBess Care, our goal is to make sure you don’t have to struggle with day-to-day household chores or making your way around town. Our Caregivers have gone through the necessary training and education to provide each of our clients with precisely the care that is best for them. We provide our caregivers with ongoing education and training with support from our Nurses. Each caregiver is equipped to assist with:​
​
-
Planning and encouraging social activities
-
Medication reminders
-
Morning and evening routine assistance
-
Encouraging light exercise and active thinking
-
Friendly and supportive conversations
-
Assisting with light gardening and housekeeping

Personal & Respite Care
We often take for granted the things we do daily, such as making a cup of coffee, bathing, climbing the stairs or even getting in and out of bed. These things can become major challenges as we age. A common misconception is that the best and only solution is to put ourselves or our loved ones in a nursing home. At MerBess Care we think differently, our caregivers provide personal care with love, dignity and respect. Our goal is for the home be a place of comfort, not frustration. Each of our caregivers are certified nursing assistants (CNA) that have gone through the necessary training and education to provide each individual with the best care possible. Our CNA's receive ongoing education and training with support from our Nurses. Each CNA is equipped to assist with:​
​
-
Bathing and showering assistance
-
Transfer assistance
-
Personal hygiene assistance
-
Help with bathroom use
-
Assisting with dressing
-
Mealtime feeding assistance
-
Personal appearance care

Help for those coming home from the hospital.

Relief for family to have time to themselves.
Overnight Services &
Post Surgery Care
There is nothing like returning to the comfort of home after a stay at the hospital or other care facility. A discharge from the hospital can seem like a welcome end to an injury or illness, but the transition process can be daunting. We may find challenges with managing appointments, medications, and the routines of daily living such as grocery shopping and housework when all you want to do is rest and recuperate. That’s why we developed our MerBess Care program! At MerBess Care, we help seniors and adults with disabilities get home safely and prevent further hospitalizations with regular visits by our trained caregivers. So you can save your energy for recovery.
