Non-Medical Home Care Helps Adults<br />
Achieve the Quality of Life They Deserve<br />
Regardless of age, background<br />
or location, most people today have<br />
something in common: They want<br />
independence, freedom and quality of<br />
life. FirstLight Home Care of Temecula<br />
is designed to help adults achieve<br />
all those things.<br />
FirstLight provides quality, affordable<br />
non-medical home care not<br />
just for the older adult who is aging<br />
in place, but also for other adults<br />
who need assistance with activities<br />
of daily living. FirstLight is a lifeline<br />
for seniors; people with disabilities;<br />
those recovering from surgery, illness<br />
or injury; Veterans, and new and busy<br />
mothers.<br />
“Non-medical home care fills the<br />
gap between medically skilled services<br />
and the everyday tasks that a person<br />
is able to complete for themselves,”<br />
said John Hamby, Owner of FirstLight<br />
Home Care of Temecula. “Our services<br />
provide the resources needed to<br />
sustain our clients’ independence and<br />
freedom and help family caregivers<br />
maintain flexibility and balance in<br />
their own lives.”<br />
Central to the FirstLight caregiving<br />
approach is a client-first philosophy<br />
that matches clients with caregivers<br />
who fit the personality, needs and<br />
vision of the client and family. Caregiving<br />
partnerships are built on trust,<br />
communication and an understanding<br />
of a client’s needs.<br />
“Our caregivers have been there,<br />
and they understand the challenges<br />
families face when caring for loved<br />
ones,” said Hamby. “FirstLight caregivers<br />
are direct employees, not contractors.<br />
Plus, we conduct thorough<br />
screenings and background checks,<br />
and every caregiver must complete our<br />
rigorous care training.”<br />
