While some caregivers assist with basic tasks in the home and act more as a companion for their senior clients, home health aides can provide support with more health-adjacent roles. For example, they can help feed, bath, and dress patients. They can also make sure patients are taking their medications on time (although they don’t administer drugs).
What the duties of a home health aide are depend on the unique needs of the individual they’re caring for. For example, some senior citizens lose the ability to drive and may struggle to keep up with challenging household chores. Others may need more physical help in regards to bathing and getting dressed. Many home health aides assist with cooking and housework. Some can even offer transportation services.
