Hospice care isn’t an easy topic to talk about. At European Best, we understand this is a challenging and difficult time that you obviously don’t want to be in. Our goal is to help make things a little better for you and your loved one. Hospice care can begin when a doctor diagnoses them with a life expectancy of six months or less if the illness they have follows its usual path. Keep in mind that hospice care isn’t about ‘curing’ a person; it’s about giving them the tools to live their last days without pain and suffering.

Not everyone is capable of providing adequate, effective hospice care. Hospice care is a special kind of care that requires a special kind of person. Our hospice home health care providers are hand-selected for their compassion, professionalism, and overall kind nature.

When a loved one is diagnosed with a chronic illness, a family’s life can quickly turn upside down. Seeing your family member cope with pain and deteriorating health can be overwhelming. Our experienced, compassionate palliative caregivers can help. At European Best, we ensure those living with chronic illnesses are able to remain safely at home for longer. Our palliative care is effective, calming, and beneficial to both the patient and their families.

Our Customized Approach

Are you the primary caregiver of an elderly family member? Being the sole carer for a sick or aging loved one is undoubtedly selfless and something you should feel incredibly proud of. But, when you are in that position, it’s important to remember that taking a break is A-OK! Respite care is a planned or emergency temporary care to give you, the main caregiver, time off.

Respite Care Services by European Best Care

At European Best Care, our staff will take care of the person that you usually care for. Our respite care programs offset short-term breaks from the demands of taking care of a sick or disabled, aging family member. Our services are here for you when you need them most. When the pressure, stress, or emotions get too much to handle, we’ll take over for a limited time to give you a break you need.

The Time Is Yours

When you opt for respite care services, that time off is intended for you to do what you want to do, rather than what you need to do - whatever that means for you. Our professional caregivers will perform the regular tasks you usually do while caring for your loved one. Take the opportunity to de-stress, get other work done, run your daily errands, or go home and watch a movie with a giant tub of popcorn. Don’t worry, no judgment here! The point is, you deserve a break. Let us help you take it without feeling guilty.

The primary goal of companion care is emotional support and socialization. Our caregivers visit elderly adults who function independently in their own home environments. Our at-home visits help prevent loneliness, maintain social skills, stimulate positive thoughts, and offer an increased sense of purpose. Seniors have the creative freedom to decide how they would like to spend their time with us. Most of the time, this caregiver service involves doing brain-stimulating activities, playing games, watching TV, sharing stories, or taking short walks.

Seniors will have a full range of activities to choose from. We are not there to take away their freedoms; we are there to help them enjoy daily life just a little bit more. We help when and where we are needed without overstepping boundaries or making our seniors feel inadequate.

Our goal is to create a long-lasting friendship. Human contact is an incredibly powerful tool. We hope our seniors think of us like a friend who sometimes helps with the dishes, rather than a caregiver sent to “babysit.”

What's involved in good home care for seniors? It&s an excellent question and one that we take care to answer when we talk to families about the logistics of caring for an elderly family member in his or her home.

Here are some of the major aspects of the care that takes place, day in and day out, in senior home care services, to keep seniors safe and well cared for.
