Aging doesn’t always bring serious health problems, yet, it often comes with a lack of energy and stamina decline. While it’s natural and normal, it makes the daily lives of senior citizens less comfortable since many of them fall behind on housekeeping chores that used to be part of their normal routine.

Galaxy Home Care Homemaking Services in Queens offers practical assistance with routine household tasks and related activities to enable your older adults to remain in a safe, clean, and healthy home environment they love.

What Are Homemaking Services for Seniors?

In-home health services make aging in place an option, even if some special care is needed. With a caring companion or skilled caregiver on their side, senior adults get professional support and assistance similar to that provided in certified nursing homes and assisted living facilities. In the meantime, aging people don’t have to leave their beloved homes and experience the stress of adjusting to new living environments.

Senior homemaking services in Queens are a part of Galaxy Home Care in-home assisted living programs. While nurses and personal helpers primarily focus on assisting with health-related issues, homemakers do a different job. They will handle housekeeping tasks your senior loved ones can no longer cope with on their own.

What Are the Benefits of Homemaker Services From Galaxy Home Care?

Aging adults become more sensitive to the environment and atmosphere they live in. Maintaining habitual household comfort and convenience is essential for seniors since it lets them feel more confident and protected. For older people, homemaking assistance is more than simply keeping the houses clean and routine chores set. Hence, beyond practical reasons, homemaking care services in Queens offer the following benefits:

  • Adults who don’t need health-related help will retain independence and the ability to lead their common life;
  • Rehab and recovering patients will be able to enjoy the comfort of the tidy and well-maintained home environment as well as to stick to their habits before they recuperate and will regain the ability to handle the household errands by themselves;
  • Disabled persons and aged adults who don’t go out too often will have not only a home helper on their side but also a companion to communicate and interact with. This will help them distract from depressive thoughts and feel more involved;
  • Homemaker assistance for older adults in Queens will facilitate an easier transition to increased care should it be needed in the future;
  • These services will provide family members with peace of mind knowing that their loved ones are receiving the care they need.

Are Homemaking Services the Right Choice for You?

How to know that your elderly loved one needs homemaking assistance? Some seniors might simply tell their families and relatives that once feasible home tasks have become tiresome and stressful for them, while others will strive to stay independent at any cost. The signs that your nearest and dearest needs household support might be as follows:

  • You notice heaps of laundry piling up in the bathroom, dirty dishes accumulating in the sink, and home surfaces getting dusty;
  • The bed stays undone more and more often, with fresh linens being changed more and more seldom;
  • Your loved senior asks you to go to the grocery or mow the lawn too often;
  • Your older family member is reluctant to go out, walk the dog, or do some relatively simple household things.

If some of those signs pop up as you visit your parent or other aging relative and you don’t have enough time to ensure decent homemaking help, reserve that job for Galaxy Home Care.

With a whole list of homemaking services for older adults in Queens, our agency places personal customer needs and comfort at the center of attention. Feel free to contact us and let us develop a customized homemaking program that will match your individual situation to a tee.

FAQ

  1. What do homemaking services cover?

    Usually, this type of assisted living service embraces simple yet important household tasks most of us do on our own such as vacuuming, cleaning the floors, washing dishes, doing laundry, etc. Other homemaking services can include grocery shopping and accompanying adults on some outings.

  2. When is it time to look into homemaking assistance?

    As soon as you notice that your loved senior gets tired too quickly when doing some simple things around the house, it might be the right time to seek assistance. Most often, people seek to take care of their aging family members by themselves, sacrificing their own lives and responsibilities. Consider hiring a professional company that provides homemaking services for the elderly in Queens, such as Galaxy Home Care.

  3. How do I find a good homemaking service provider?

    A quality service provider is a licensed agency that employs a team of certified and experienced caregivers and offers a customer-focused approach. Galaxy Home Care has it all and is always ready to help.

What our clients say about us

What our clients
say about us

Galaxy Home Care is a life savior for our family. My mom suffered a devastating stroke in December rendering her handicapped and unable to live on her own. Navigating the Medicaid/Medicare maze became my full time job yielding very little results. If it wasn’t for the super knowledgeable, compassionate and overall professional Galaxy team, I still would have no dependable home care solution for my mom. They jumped through so many hoops and made everything work. Finally, somebody had my back! Thanks to Galaxy Home Care, they found a perfect home attendant for my mom, guided me through securing supplemental at-home services for her, and continue to provide lots of support and guidance as we move forward. Thank you, Galaxy Home Care!

    It is with great pleasure that I write this review about Galaxy Homecare. Choosing homecare for yourself your loved one is not easy and can be quite emotional too. Everyone at Galaxy made my experience wonderful. Starting with Ben, what can I say, the best person to help you navigate during these trying times and Natalie, an absolute treasure to the company. Of course, everyone else at Galaxy as well. Their home care personnel are top notch!! I highly recommend Galaxy Home care for you or your loved one!! Thank you.

    Donna S Oct 31, 2024

    I can't say enough about the service Ben at Galaxy provided to ensure I had the best care possible for my 89 year old father who had dimentia and also took a fall recently. Ben took the time to really understand our needs as a family, given the challenging circumstances with his recent fall that immobilized my father to a degree. We were given the services of Kalu Odin whom for a month, who took care of my father like he was his own son, and I felt Kalu to be part of the family. He was absolutely attentive in every aspect and truly helped my father's recovery process. He loves what he does, and it shows with his empathy and his diligence with dad, who took a great liking to Kalu. Dad is doing much better, and I attribute that to Kalu ,Ben, and the Galaxy team!

    Galaxy Home Care came into my life when my mother was sent home from a SNF in no shape to be left alone. Ben explained how the agency could help. We have met many kind, caring HHA's. If I ever need to use an agency again, I would definitely contact Galaxy Home Care.

    When your close elderly family members are in need of daily assistance, often we are not prepared for all the red tape, financial and personal decisions that come with it. Galaxy has been caring, professional and very accommodating with all of our requests. We feel very fortunate to be able to work with them.
