Home Care Assistance also trains its’ caregivers in a proprietary program called he Balanced Care Method™, which is based on a study of centenarians in Okinawa, Japan – the longest living people on Earth. Scientists looked into the different factors that allowed people in that region to live high-quality lives well into their 90s and beyond. The study revealed five key commonalities: healthy diet, physical activity, mental stimulation, social ties and a sense of calm and purpose. Using these findings, , Home Care Assistance developed the Balanced Care Method™ to train caregivers in more than traditional home care help - meal preparation, personal hygiene, bathing, medication reminders, transportation. The program encourages client independence and keeps them engaged in physical, mental and social activities.
