Need a Little Help? Call FirstLight HomeCare

rot3FirstLight HomeCare has lots of services that they offer to their clients, and one that you may not know about is the quick and convenient Rise and Tuck.

The Rise and Tuck is a one hour service that a caregiver from FirstLight can provide one or more times per week.

“Michelle [Alex] developed this service because loved ones who need assistance often live with family,“ Danielle Webb, Community Care Coordinator for FirstLight HomeCare said. “Mornings are tough because everyone is getting ready for work or school or at night when dinner is being prepared and chores are being done. We come in and make sure the person who needs assistance gets some TLC so that their family has time to take care of other things, get everything done, and then spend time with the loved one which is really what they want to do, but don’t often have time for.”

Clients will utilize this service for wellness checks if the individual lives alone, help getting dinner ready, help bathing or cleaning up, or other short but important tasks.

“Other companies have a three hour limit. Our service costs $30 and we are the only company that does that,” Webb said.

Typically, people call and schedule ahead of time to have Rise and Tucks a few times a week. But if there is an emergency, FirstLight HomeCare can do their best to accommodate, and have a caregiver to out to help your loved one in as little as a few hours.
