Creating a plan of care is the first step to quality care and building a strong partnership between Heaven’s Hands Home Care and any new client.
 

We begin our relationship by getting to know our client, their family, and extended support community, if there is one. In our first meeting, our aim is to understand the primary diagnosis, concerns, other healthcare and wellness needs or companion needs, and explore social history and primary interests.

The plan of senior home care is developed collaboratively with the client and family and is designed to:

• Establish care needs/care goals

• Act as a guide and basis for the client-caregiver partnership

• Become an orientation tool for the caregiver (s) to outline expectations and approach to care, prior to beginning services

• A trace of documented progress or changes
