This allows you or your loved one to receive superior care in the comfort of their own home. A home is something you build over years and years of your life. You form bonds, make memories, and experience life in your home. So it is understandable why it is so important for your elderly family members to want to stay in their home even when they may not be able to do it alone. This is where Acti-Kare can help your family. Acti-Kare provides top of the line in-home care from our trained and professional caregivers for your loved ones in need.

Acti-Kare’s trained in-home caregivers will provide help with your loved one’s personal care needs in the home. One of the most significant personal care issues is grooming and hygiene. This can become a frustrating and challenging task to many with physical and cognitive limitations. With a trained Acti-Kare caregiver in the home, your loved one will get assistance with everything from showering and bathing, to shaving, and brushing teeth. Keeping up with regular hygiene is very important to the physical and mental health of your loved one, and with Acti-Kare it will never be an issue. Acti-Kare caregivers also understand the sensitivity and discretion required when dealing with toileting and other incontinence care needs. Not having proper assistance with these issues can lead to many things from unpleasant odors to severe skin infections. With in-home care provided by Acti-Kare, your loved one will get the care and attention needed while maintaining respect and sensitivity. Remaining active in the later years of your life is a great way to stimulate your body and mind and is very important. This has become an essential part of the Acti-Kare service. Starting with transferring and positioning within the house, Acti-Kare’s trained caregivers help your loved one stay mobile within their home. Many elderly people with physical limitations are at risk of bedsores, muscle atrophy, and breathing and digestive problems. Staying in one position in bed, seats, and wheelchairs for too long can increase these risks. This can be remedied by having an Acti-Kare professional in the home. Helping your loved one change positions move throughout the house every day is a top priority of your Acti-Kare in-home caregiver. On top of staying mobile within the home, it is essential for your loved one to remain mobile outside the home and live their golden years the way they want. Acti-Kare’s trained caregivers ensure that your loved ones get from place to place with safety and comfort. Nutrition and diet are vital in your loved one’s golden years but can be challenging to manage on their own. Your loved one may not be able to cook anymore, they may not be able to eat certain foods, or they may be on a special diet for medical reasons such as diabetes. Maintaining a nutritious diet can help the physical and mental well-being of your loved one in their later years. Whether your loved one needs assistance preparing and cooking meals or sticking to a prescribed diet for health reasons, Acti-Kare’s trained caregivers can make meals a positive experience. On top of keeping up with nutrition, Acti-Kare’s trained caregivers can make mealtime a social and mentally stimulating part of the day. Giving your loved one a companion to spend meals with engaging in conversation can make all the difference in the world. Staying socially engaged in public as well as in the home is a critical part of your loved one’s life and can help reduce the risk of depression and other cognitive issues. Whether it be out at the grocery store or right in their living room, Acti-Kare caregivers provide your loved ones with friendly companionship that help keep them stimulated and engaged in their everyday lives. General housekeeping is another everyday task that can become difficult in the later years of your loved one’s life due to physical or cognitive limitations. Acti-Kare’s trained caregivers provide housekeeping services that include: Vacuuming, sweeping, organizing closets and drawers, dusting, mopping, and anything else the home may need.

Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Home care services are only one of the pieces needed for seniors to gracefully age in place. There are many services and programs that are low-cost or free, that enable seniors to enjoy an independent lifestyle in the comfort of their own home, such as help with home modifications, meal delivery services, and more. Below, we’ve compiled a few of the most helpful resources in Bonita Springs:
Resource | Contact | Address | Service |
---|---|---|---|
Respite for Elders Living in Everyday Families (RELIEF) | (866) 413-5337 | 5272 Summerlin Commons Way, Bldg. #6, #603, Fort Myers, FL | The Florida Department of Elder Affairs’ RELIEF initiative, administered by the Southwest Florida Area Agency on Aging, offers family caregivers a short-term break from the daily responsibilities of caring for their frail seniors.

Box 2143, Fort Myers, FL 33902 | Meals on Wheels delivers daily, wholesome meals to qualifying homebound seniors who can’t prepare their own food.

The program offers three types of assistance: crisis, home energy and weather-related. Funding is available once per year. Goodwill Industries of Southwest Florida administers LIHEAP in Lee County. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.

They have had flexible hours and scheduling. Some of the caregivers do not have strong English skills.
