Aging doesn’t always mean giving up independence. Sometimes the right amount of support with everyday activities can make it possible for an older adult to continue living safely and comfortably in the place they call home.
Signs It May Be Time for Additional Support
Non-medical home care can provide additional support while helping older adults maintain as much independence as possible in their own homes.

Small Changes Can Make a Big Difference
Non-Medical Home Care Services in Albuquerque
Support designed around the everyday needs of Albuquerque seniors and families. Explore the services below to better understand how an in-home caregiver may be able to help.
Personal Care Assistance
Personal care can become more difficult as mobility, strength, balance, or health changes. A non-medical caregiver can provide respectful assistance with everyday activities such as bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, and other personal routines.
The goal should be to provide the assistance a person needs without unnecessarily taking away their independence. Even limited support with morning or evening routines can sometimes make it easier for an older adult to continue living comfortably at home.
May include: Bathing assistance • Dressing • Grooming • Toileting • Personal hygiene • Routine mobility assistance
Companionship & Social Support
Living independently can sometimes lead to loneliness and social isolation, particularly when driving, mobility, or health concerns make it difficult to leave home.
A companion caregiver can spend meaningful time with an older adult through conversation, games, hobbies, walks, reading, outings, or simply sharing part of the day together.
Companionship isn’t just about having someone in the house. It’s about helping seniors remain connected, engaged, and involved in everyday life.
May include: Conversation • Games • Hobbies • Walks • Reading • Social outings • Accompaniment to activities
Meal Preparation
Shopping for groceries and preparing meals can become challenging for older adults experiencing changes in mobility, energy, or ability to safely navigate the kitchen.
Home caregivers may assist with grocery shopping, meal preparation, kitchen cleanup, and maintaining regular mealtime routines.
This can be particularly helpful for families who notice that an aging parent has begun skipping meals or relying heavily on convenience foods because cooking has become difficult.
May include: Grocery shopping • Meal preparation • Kitchen cleanup • Mealtime assistance • Meal planning support
Transportation & Errands
Giving up or reducing driving can have a major impact on a senior’s independence. Depending on the provider and care arrangement, caregivers may help clients get to important destinations throughout Albuquerque.
That could include medical appointments, grocery stores, pharmacies, senior activities, religious services, family visits, or simply getting out of the house.
May include: Medical appointments • Grocery shopping • Pharmacy trips • Errands • Social activities • Community outings
Light Housekeeping
Maintaining a home requires considerable physical effort. Laundry, dishes, changing bedding, and everyday cleaning can become increasingly difficult when strength or mobility changes.
Caregivers can assist with light household tasks that help maintain a cleaner, safer, and more comfortable living environment.
This isn’t generally intended to replace professional housekeeping or heavy cleaning services. Instead, it’s everyday assistance related to helping the senior maintain their home environment.
May include: Laundry • Dishes • Changing linens • Light cleaning • Organizing • Tidying living areas
Respite Care for Family Caregivers
Family members often become caregivers gradually. What begins as helping with groceries or appointments can eventually turn into hours of caregiving every week.
Respite care allows a professional caregiver to temporarily provide support so a family caregiver can work, attend appointments, spend time with family, rest, or simply have time to recharge.
Respite may be helpful whether someone needs occasional relief or regularly scheduled caregiver support.
May include: Scheduled caregiver relief • Companionship • Personal care • Meal assistance • Supervision • Daily routine support
