About this service

Your father moved into a retirement home after your mother passed away because he was lonely and he couldnt cook. The retirement home provides meals and there are other people around, but hes still feeling lonely since it wasnt as easy to make new friends as he had envisioned. Lately, he has been struggling with incontinence, and hes nervous to leave his room for fear of being incontinent in public. Moving into a retirement home was supposed to solve his loneliness and provide him with activities and new friendships. Instead, he is confined to a room that is much smaller than his house. Staff tries to coax him out of his room, but they have many other residents to attend to and cant remain at his side. We can spend one-on-one time with your father, encouraging him to join activities, offering to assist should he not make it to the washroom in time. When someone is incontinent, a lot of laundry is produced and it can feel overwhelming to stay on top of it all. A Warm Embrace caregiver will discreetly ensure that laundry is done daily and that bedsheets are replaced. While retirement homes typically provide weekly laundry, higher frequency is required when incontinence is involvedwe fill those gaps. Retirement homes will outline all the services they provide and how much assistance can be provided to individuals. They have many residents to consider, they must adhere to their service offering. If a resident begins to require more care than is offered by the retirement home, that home may no longer be a suitable living arrangement.
