At Aken Home Care, we believe that everyone deserves to live with dignity and maximum independence, regardless of physical limitations or disabilities. Our Attendant Care services provide professional, hands-on assistance that empowers individuals to maintain their desired lifestyle while receiving the practical support they need for daily activities.
Understanding Attendant Care
Attendant Care differs from other home care services by focusing specifically on enabling clients to direct their own care while receiving physical assistance with tasks they cannot perform independently. This person-centered approach promotes autonomy, dignity, and self-determination while providing essential physical support.
