Like many adults with aging parents, we found ourselves caught between the demands of our own lives and the growing needs of our mom and dad. They are needing more support than we are able to offer, but a nursing home felt wrong. We wanted them to stay in the familiar comfort of their own home. That’s when we discovered Amy’s Helping Hands.
The Gift of Time, The Gift of Peace
Amy’s compassionate caregivers stepped in, providing the care and companionship we could not always offer. It was like a weight lifted off our shoulders. Suddenly, our visits with Mom and Dad were filled with laughter and connection again. Not just a checklist of tasks.
More than Care, It’s Companionship
Amy’s caregivers do more than just the essentials. They can go for walks with Dad in the park, they can bake cookies with mom, play some of their favorite games. These simple acts can bring back a spark in your parents eyes. With the extra assistance, you will be able to return to being their loving children and not their caregivers.
