Everything that an individual does or receives assistance with to maintain their personal hygiene, appearance, and health is a part of personal care. Among the many activities that are included in CareCo’s at-home personal care services include, but are not limited to, dressing, bathing, grooming, incontinence care, and other aspects of personal care. When we take care of the individual requirements of the elderly in Las Cruces, Alamogordo, and the surrounding regions of New Mexico, we can help them age in place with respect and autonomy.
Taking a warm bath helps alleviate itchy, inflamed, or otherwise unhealthy skin while also eliminating dirt, sweat, and bacteria. Taking a bath may also help control your core temperature and blood pressure.

As part of our at-home personal care services, CareCo assists seniors in the Las Cruces, Alamogordo, and other communities with these activities to ensure their comfort and well-being.
Taking care of one's appearance boosts one's self-esteem, self-confidence, and self-image.

Because of this, it is possible that one's mental health as well as their relationships with other people would improve. Through our at-home personal care services, we give seniors in Las Cruces and surrounding areas the help they need to stay clean and improve their quality of life in a place they are comfortable with.
Seniors who are proud of how they look and how clean they are are less likely to feel like they need to stay inside and isolate themselves. This makes them more likely to go to social events, meet new people, and make new friends. Not only does CareCo's at-home personal care services assist clients in maintaining their personal health, but we also help clients avoid feeling lonely, which is a common issue among seniors who wish to age in place.
