Compassionate Experts in Home Care for Parkinson’s

Home Helpers Home Care of Cherry Hill understands that there will come a day when family members alone can’t give all the help that may be needed or may not have the knowledge to properly care for the patient as the disease progresses.

  • Above and beyond help to get through the day comfortably, our team can also assist in these areas:
  • Meal Planning/Nutrition. Parkinson’s patients need a diet that strengthens bones and muscles. Our Caregivers understand how to help lay out a menu that will be the most beneficial for your loved one.
  • Security and Supervision. Many patients with Parkinson’s Disease are older adults, when they may be getting unsteady on their feet anyway. An unsteady gait that comes with Parkinson’s can present challenges, but our Caregiving team knows how to help keep your loved one safe by putting safety checks in place inside the house. They will go through the home and help you know what needs to change so that there is minimal risk of trips or falls.
  • Exercise and Mobility. The doctor may prescribe physical therapy or other exercises to help you stay as safe and mobile as possible. Our team can help you follow through with the home exercise routine.
  • Relieving Family Members. This might be one of the most important services of all—giving tired family members a rest. Parkinson’s Disease can be challenging and tiring in those times when everyone is getting used to the changes and learning how to find a new normal.
