Does accredited home care include personal care?

Personal Care Within Accredited Support

Yes. At Infinity Healthcare, accredited home care can include personal care as part of a personalized in-home support plan. Personal care is non-clinical assistance with everyday routines that helps a person remain comfortable, safe, and independent at home while preserving dignity, respect, and personal choice.

Accreditation reflects a provider’s commitment to established quality standards, reliable processes, and accountable care practices. It does not mean every client receives the exact same services. The right level of support is based on the individual’s preferences, daily routine, abilities, and family circumstances. During a consultation, Infinity Healthcare works with the client and, where appropriate, their family or support network to create a care plan that fits their goals.

Our personal care services may include assistance with:

  • Bathing, showering, grooming, and oral care
  • Dressing and preparing for the day or evening
  • Mobility support and help moving safely around the home
  • Morning, bedtime, and other daily routines
  • Toileting and continence-related personal routines, delivered respectfully
  • Medication reminders and support with maintaining an organized routine

Caregivers provide assistance in a way that encourages each person to do as much as they comfortably can for themselves. This approach supports independence without taking over routines or choices unnecessarily. Care can be scheduled for a short visit, selected times of day, overnight support, or more ongoing assistance as needs change.

Personal care can also be combined with home support, companionship, respite care, or dementia support. For example, a caregiver may help someone get ready in the morning, prepare a meal, provide friendly conversation, and complete light household tasks during the same visit when this aligns with the care plan. This coordinated approach can offer practical caregiver support and greater peace of mind for families.

Some health-related needs may require services outside the scope of non-clinical personal care. If nursing care or coordination with other healthcare professionals is appropriate, Infinity Healthcare can discuss available options and help clarify the type of support that best fits the situation.

Personalized accredited home care is about helping people continue aging on their terms, because home is where life happens. Contact Infinity Healthcare to discuss your in-home care needs and schedule a personalized consultation in Edmonton.
