Senior Solutions Home Care provides home care in East Point for older adults who'd like to keep living in their own homes, with a little help from someone they can trust. East Point is part of our service area across Fulton County. Our caregivers help with the everyday things, like meals, housekeeping, bathing and dressing, errands and rides to appointments. Care is set around your loved one's routine, from a few hours a week to around the clock, and it can change as their needs do.
Senior Solutions is a non-medical home care agency. Our caregivers help older adults with the activities of daily living, things like bathing, dressing, meals and housework, right in their own homes. That way your mom or dad gets to stay where their neighbors, their routines and their favorite chair already are. That's what in-home care in East Point, GA looks like with us, and it's what we've been doing since 2010.
Care can be short-term or long-term, and our caregivers are available for both. Our services run 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, so nights, weekends and holidays are covered, too. Our service area takes in all of Fulton County, and East Point sits right inside it.
Plenty of families here are in the same spot as yours. East Point is home to about 4,000 residents who are 65 or older, roughly one in ten people in town, and 501 of them are 85 and up. Among East Point households with someone 65 or older, about four in ten are one person living on their own. That's a lot of parents managing by themselves, with a son or daughter checking in by phone between visits.
Getting around gets harder with age, too, and about a third of East Point residents 65 and older live with a disability. After 75, it's closer to four in ten. Stepping into the tub or getting up from a chair can take more effort over time, and that's just the kind of everyday help a caregiver gives.
Every family's needs look a little different, so our services are all customized to your loved one. Here's what senior home care in East Point, GA can include with us.
Our hourly help at home with daily tasks covers housekeeping, laundry, light meal preparation, personal hygiene, medication reminders, and errands and shopping. Caregivers keep an eye on safety around the house, too. Their visits also give family caregivers a chance to rest and recharge, which we call family respite care.
Some seniors handle their own personal care just fine and mostly miss having company. With companion care, a caregiver comes by for conversation and company, and helps with light housekeeping, errands, shopping and rides to appointments or activities.
Our caregivers give hands-on help with bathing, dressing, grooming and toileting, plus a steady arm getting up from bed or a chair. They're trained to be discreet and respectful, so your loved one keeps their privacy and dignity.
We provide in-home care for veterans and their surviving spouses through the VA Aid and Attendance Pension Benefit. The benefit can help cover companion care and personal care, and our team can walk you through the paperwork and steps involved.
Some families want a little more support, and our care management, technology, nutrition and transition solutions are there for exactly that. A Care Manager can be your local eyes and ears if you live out of town, and our virtual Family Room lets everyone see schedules and care updates in one place.
We also offer skilled nursing care at home from licensed nurses and physical therapy at home with a licensed therapist, for needs that go beyond non-medical help.
East Point already has good support for older adults, and home care fits right in around it.
Fulton County's Department of Senior Services runs four senior multipurpose facilities, and one of them, the H.J.C. Bowden Senior Multipurpose Facility on Church Street, is right here in East Point. Adults 55 and older can take classes, share a meal, join a fitness program or simply spend the afternoon with friends, and it's free for Fulton County residents. A caregiver can drive your loved one there and back, so they keep going to their regular class even after they've stopped driving.
Grady's East Point Health Center on W. Cleveland Avenue sees adults and seniors on weekdays for checkups, chronic disease management, lab work and imaging. It's just 0.2 mile from the East Point MARTA station. Our caregivers can take your loved one to appointments, keep them company while they wait, and stop for groceries on the way home.
The Atlanta Regional Commission is the Area Agency on Aging for metro Atlanta. Its Empowerline service shares information on aging, disability and caregiver needs, and its programs include delivered meals, respite vouchers for family caregivers and care management.
Our caregivers cover the hours in between: the meals, the laundry, the help getting dressed and the company on a quiet afternoon at home.
Bringing someone new into your parent's home is a big step, and we take that trust seriously.
Senior Solutions is a family-owned, independent agency. Our founder opened the company in 2010 with his own grandparents as his very first clients. Since then, we've been named a three-time Inc. 5000 honoree, in 2018, 2019 and 2020.
Every caregiver is our employee, so we handle the taxes, insurance and backup support. They're thoroughly screened, insured and bonded, they've passed both state and national background checks, and they keep learning through ongoing skills training.
We use a Care Managed Approach. Your family gets access to geriatric care managers and senior advisers who become part of your care team and can coordinate with your doctors and specialists.
We also make sure the caregiver we place clicks with your parent, because their comfort and sense of safety matter most. Our satisfaction guarantee means you can bring a caregiver into the home without feeling trapped by a contract.
"I do feel like they have a level of understanding and commitment to making sure that I can rest easy on my end and making sure that mom has somebody with a personality type that can work with her. I definitely feel like they care."
Jessica, Client Family Member
Getting started takes three simple steps, and you can go at whatever pace feels right for your family.
First comes a phone consultation. We'll connect with you by phone after you fill out the get started form and go over it together. It takes about ten minutes, and right away we'll know whether we're a good fit. If we're not, we're connected to a wide network of professionals and can refer you to someone who is.
Next is an in-home consultation. We'll visit you and your parent at home, hear your story, answer every question you have and get a shared understanding of the care your loved one needs.
Last, we put the care plan in place. We'll write an initial plan and match your loved one with a trained caregiver. After 30 days, we'll review the services and how happy you are with them, and adjust the plan to fit any new needs.
Families usually want to know about cost early on, and that's a fair question.
Medicare doesn't directly cover in-home care, but other programs can help. State Medicaid programs may help with the cost of personal care services. The VA Aid and Attendance Pension Benefit may cover part or all of the cost of long-term care for qualifying veterans and surviving spouses. Long-term care insurance may cover some in-home care services as well, and our Care Managers take care of long-term care insurance filing and coordination.
We accept electronic drafts, credit cards, long-term care insurance and government programs. A caring staff member will share information and pricing after you fill out the get started form, and we're always glad to point you toward financial resources.
At Senior Solutions, we have refined our care management skills and developed high care standards to ensure the best care for our clients and their families, find out what makes us different.
