Personal Care
Signal Heath Group
Personal Care Services
Signal Health Group’s aides, companions, homemakers, and personal care attendants work in the places our clients call home. They are also available as private duty sitters to provide attentive care while you are in the hospital. Our home care staff see to the daily needs that keep people healthy, independent, and socially engaged. This can include assistance with transportation, important cleaning around the home, hands-on care such as assistance bathing, companionship, or supervision for parents with dementia. Signal Health Group clients have widely varied health and mental statuses and widely varying needs, but they all have one need in common: someone who is skilled, hard-working, and reliable.

Home Support Services
Signal Health Group is dedicated to your health, happiness, and peace of mind. Many of the services we include in ‘home support services’ are what other agencies would qualify as “heavy cleaning” and simply refuse to do. Others agencies also refuse to take care of your pets and plants. Signal Health Group knows all of these activities are important to your health and well-being, and that’s why we are happy to handle all of these tasks well.
