Home Health Care Needs Growing in Barrington, IL

Nation’s Leading Senior Care Franchise Offers Affordable Alternative to Assisted Living and Nursing Care Facilities
 
BARRINGTON, Ill. - March 19, 2013 - PRLog -- CINCINNATI – As more than 70 million Americans reach age 65 over the next two decades, the need for in-home senior care continues to soar. Local entrepreneurs John and Christine Browning are lending a helping hand by launching a local home care agency to meet the needs of residents in Barrington, Buffalo Grove, Fox River Grove, Wauconda, Mundelein, Vernon Hills, Lincolnshire, Libertyville, and Lake Bluff, IL.

As part of the nation’s leading franchise specializing in comprehensive home care for seniors, new mothers and other individuals needing recuperative and continuing care, Home Helpers & Direct Link of Barrington, IL began serving the community on March 1st.

Mrs. Browning has over two decades of experience as a registered nurse working in hospice care and adult medical surgical care, as well as many years working in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Loyola University Medical Center. She and Mr. Browning have a passion for caring for others, and have served as foster parents for eleven years. Mr. Browning also brings a wealth of business knowledge and experience with him, gained over his 22 years in the Chicagoland financial industry.

“Our mission is to improve the quality of life for clients of all ages and their families through comprehensive, quality, compassionate care that encompasses and respects the spiritual, emotional and physical aspects of care,” said Mrs. Browning.

“This is our opportunity to make sure that seniors get the best attention from someone who cares and helps them achieve a higher quality of life,” said Mr. Browning. “We strive to deliver the same quality of care we would expect for our own families while offering clients a more affordable and flexible alternative to assisted living or nursing care facilities.”
                                                                                               
Home Helpers offers free in-home consultations and works with clients one-on-one to tailor a flexible care plan to meet their specific needs and budgets. Services offered include companionship, light housekeeping, meal preparation, transportation, nursing services and medication management through Direct Link.

Direct Link’s exclusive line of medical alert systems are monitored 24/7 by a CSAA 5-Diamond Certified Care Center, enabling seniors to live independently at home for as long as safely possible. The Direct Link product suite includes land-line and cellular personal emergency response systems (PERS), automated medication dispensers, GPS client-tracking Care Watch and remote vital signs monitoring units. If a Direct Link unit is activated or a reading is abnormal, the device alerts Home Helpers staff, 911 or any pre-established contacts, thereby easing family anxieties and maximizing client independence.

“In a society where family members sometimes live hundreds of miles from each other, Home Helpers & Direct Link can step in to fill a vital role that can allow peace of mind for clients and their families,” Mrs. Browning said. “Because our clients decide how often they need us and what services we can provide for them, it allows Home Helpers & Direct Link to offer affordable and convenient choices based on client specific needs.”
