At SenCare we understand the basic needs of seniors are the same as their younger counterparts and at SencCare our number one goal is to meet and exceed those needs.

1. Physiological - Physiological needs, which are the strongest of all the needs, consist of the need for oxygen, food, water, and a relatively constant body temperature

2. Safety- Safety needs are designed to attain and protect security. Unlike children, who will show signs of insecurity, adults have little awareness of their safety needs unless that safety is threatened by emergency or disorganization

3. Affection - Third on the “need tier” are needs associated with love, affection and a sense of belonging. By nature, most people try to avoid loneliness and alienation by giving and receiving love, affection and the sense of belonging

4. Esteem - Once a person satisfies the needs in the first three groups, he/she tends to seek self esteem, which includes both self-esteem and the esteem obtained from others. Humans not only desire respect from themselves but also from others. Respect gives an individual confidence and value as a person. Lack of esteem will lead to frustration, and feelings of inferiority, weakness, helplessness and worthlessness.

5. Self actualization - It is only after all the other needs are met that one seeks self actualization, which basically means doing what he/she was “born to do”. When such needs are not met, the individual becomes restless, feels on edge, is tense and feels as if he/she is lacking something. It is not always obvious what a person wants when there is a need for self-actualization.

We strongly encourage a strong family and friend support group, but understand that in today’s world, caregiving for an elder familiy member can be a full time job.

Request an Interview

At SenCare we begin the interview process by conducting an in-depth assessment of you or your loved one's lifestyle, medical conditions and the kind of assistance needed that will help them to remain independent at home. We will meet with you and your family and jointly determine the scope of care.

During the meeting, we explain fully the services available, answer any additional questions you have of us, and help with the important care decisions faced by the family with a loved one in need.

Questions covered during the assessment:

• Matching the appropriate caregiver
• Daily routines
• Health and medication issues
• Emergency response
• Nutritional issues
• Home cleaning issues
• Transportation needs
• Costs of services
