Hourly Home Care
Providing Safe At-Home Care for Activities of Daily Living
Healthcare professionals refer to the basic self-care tasks an individual performs on a day-to-day basis as Activities of Daily Living, or ADLs. These ADLs are fundamental in caring for oneself and maintaining independence. Sometimes, staying safe and comfortable at home may require supervised support, such as with individuals who experience cognitive or mobility challenges. In these circumstances, our experienced and compassionate at-home caregivers are able to provide the eyes-on support necessary.
The Hourly Home Care service from Cantata is our way of offering this in-home supervisory care for our clients. With this approach, our caregivers help with a variety of tasks throughout the day, while providing regular supervision and interaction, ensuring our clients can continue living in their own homes safely and comfortably. In addition, our home care handyman services are available on an hourly basis too.

Stay Active and Socially Engaged
Staying active and socially engaged is critical for seniors’ health and well-being. In fact, studies have shown that simple conversations are one of the best mental exercises we can practice in an effort to stay mentally sharp. As much as we enjoy spending time with our loved ones, most of us can’t be there as much as we’d like to provide that needed companionship. Cantata Home Services’ at-home care in Hinsdale, IL and the surrounding areas extends well beyond the typical Activities of Daily Living to help make each day enjoyable.
