Personal Care Services are direct support with day-to-day tasks.

Activities of Daily Living, or ADL for short, are basic everyday tasks of life such as taking a shower, getting dressed, using the restroom, sitting down in a chair, getting out of or into bed, combing your hair and brushing your teeth.

Activities of Daily Living also include tasks or activities known as Instrumental Activities of Daily Living. IADLS are the activities in life that are instrumental to one’s independence. IADL activities include cooking and meal preparation, work around the house including light housekeeping, getting to and from appointments and errands, life enriching activities such as hobbies and meeting with friends.

LoveCare Home Care Personal Care Companions are trained to support our clients with both ADLs and IADLs in a compassionate way that creates a supportive environment that fosters independence.
