Arthritis Assistance: Enriching Support Solutions

People with arthritis often face challenges with mobility, personal care, and activities of daily living. Family caregivers are sometimes limited by how often they can be with their loved ones to lend a hand. By expanding the care team, regular, ongoing support would be beneficial for the person living with arthritis and provide peace of mind for family. A Care Professional helps minimize arthritis-related difficulties by assisting with ambulation, bathing and grooming, home projects, light housekeeping, meal preparation, laundry, bedding changes and transportation. With family or a private company, explore the care options your loved one needs and deserves.
