Licensed in March 2006, the quality of service and the degree of professionalism of all of the employees has earned Heart and Hand the reputation of being “The place to live”.
We employ CNAs as well as home caregivers. Although we are a non-medical facility, every caregiver is well-trained, as well as screened. Each is bonded and insured, and is required to have a Federal and State background check, as well as drug screening, as a condition of employment. In our home we have both Private and Companion rooms available. Situated on 1 acre, the house and gardens are a welcome respite for our Residents. The covered patios offer them the opportunity to dine outside or just relax and enjoy the natural surroundings.
We help seniors live happy, healthy lives in the comfort of their own homes by providing quality, compassionate care and safety technology solutions to preserve independence and contribute to a better life.
The word “home” evokes warm feelings of comfort, security and well-being. For older adults, “home” also means holding tight to cherished memories, maintaining self-esteem as well as comfort that can only come from a life in familiar surroundings.
Caring for an aging family member is not a task for a neighbor. Only a professional caregiver can provide the level of care your parent needs. Our services are provided on a permanent or as-needed basis, ranging from companionship and homemaking services to personal care such as bathing, incontinence care and mobility assistance. At all times we give respectful assistance with bathing, dressing, hair styling, manicures/pedicures, toileting and other Activities of Daily Living.
We ensure that all medication is taken promptly and in accordance with the physician’s orders. Caregivers also provide general supervision and ambulatory assistance to ensure safety and well-being. Our home is designed with our Residents in mind. Our wider doorways and halls, safety rails throughout, raised toilets, walk-in showers and an easy to maneuver floor plan ensure ease of living.
Basic everyday household chores are performed regularly. From personal laundry service and room cleaning, to linen changing.
We only hire experienced caregivers and we conduct thorough background checks. They are bonded and insured for your peace of mind. Our caregivers are experienced and we personally train them to our high standards to give the best care available in the Imperial Valley for healthy aging.
Freedom from loneliness is crucial to mental health. At Heart and Hand we are all “family” who provide each other with conversation, entertainment and daily emotional support.
A thoughtfully planned calendar of life-enriching activities and exercise classes is part of our daily routine. We also have off site outings scheduled which keep our Residents entertained and engaged. We celebrate every conceivable holiday and birthday with special food, decorations and entertainment.
In their own home they are able to enjoy their familiar surroundings, the warmth of family and friends, and even pets. This with the comforting knowledge of having additional support and encouragement from our caregivers.
