💜 Set boundaries: Protect time for rest and personal needs.
💜 Create routines: Structure brings calm and predictability.
💜 Manage stress: Find small moments of relaxation or joy each day.
💜 Accept help: Let others step in—it’s not weakness, it’s wisdom.

💉 Stay up to date on flu, COVID-19, and pneumonia vaccines
🚶 Move daily to boost circulation and energy

🧴 Practice good hygiene and handwashing

Every second counts during a stroke 🧠 but most adults in the U.S. don't know how to recognize the signs. To help reduce your and your loved ones' stroke risk, remember the acronym F.A.S.T.:

F: Face drooping
A: Arm weakness
S: Speech difficulty
T: Time to call 911

This World Stroke Day, we're making sure everyone knows that spotting the signs early can make the difference between recovery and long-term disability. And no matter how a stroke has affected your loved one, our caregivers at Home Care Assistance provide specialized support for stroke recovery.

❓ What’s the difference between 24-hour care and hourly care?

With 24-hour care, caregivers stay in shifts around the clock—providing constant supervision, safety, and support.

Hourly care, on the other hand, is flexible and available in blocks (minimum of four hours), perfect for families who need help at certain times of the day.

At Home Care Assistance, we understand that each family is unique, and we'll work with you to find the right option for your loved one.
