At Gauthier Family Home Care, when we say our service is from the heart, we mean it. Why? Because we understand the struggle first hand. We’ve been there, too.
http://gauthierfhc.com Our Client-centric focus is designed for the unique needs / requests of those we serve. When we reflect on how many different ways Marion has helped her parents over the years we realize that to enumerate all those services would make for an awfully long list! The most common services we perform are listed below, but we are open to any requests that will improve quality of life or relieve a burden for our Clients. Please don’t be shy, ask us!

Over the years, we’ve had so many wonderful client moments that made us smile. They reminded us that kindness and care truly matter, even in the simplest interactions. Here April shares one that had a huge impact on our staff.
It’s moments like those — the smiles, the thank-yous, and the connections we build — that make what we do so rewarding. We’re grateful for every client we’ve had the privilege to serve.
Home care supports blood pressure management through companionship, routine, movement, sleep, and heart-healthy habits beyond medication alone.

Today we turned the tables and asked Courtney to share her favorite thing about everyone else in the office.
Hearing genuine appreciation out loud never gets old. Moments like these are what make our workplace feel like more than just an office. It feels like a family. 💚

Not sure if it’s time to ask for help?
Sometimes the signs are small at first…. But they can add up.
Early indicators that a loved one may need extra support include:
💚Trouble keeping up with daily tasks
💚Increased forgetfulness or confusion
💚Changes in mood or behavior
💚Missed medications or appointments
💚Falls, balance issues, or safety concerns at home
The good news? You don’t have to navigate it alone.
If you’re noticing changes, it may be the right time to explore care options and learn what support is available. We’re here to answer questions and help you find the best next step.

We love celebrating our caregivers, and rightfully so, but today we’re shining a spotlight on someone behind the scenes who makes it all happen.
Our incredible scheduler, Alex, was recently recognized by a clients family member, and that truly means so much. It’s not often that office staff are seen for the countless hours, coordination, problem-solving, and heart they pour into their work.
Alex works tirelessly to ensure every client is supported and every caregiver is set up for success. This recognition is a beautiful reminder that compassion and dedication are felt at every level of care.
We are so grateful for Alex and everything she does each and every day. 💚

Assist with activities of daily living (ADLs)
These are the essential personal functions that we are used to performing every day. They can include bathing, oral care, and hair care along with toileting and dressing/undressing.
Provide medication reminder and queues
We can remind the client to take their medications as prescribed and watch for any unwanted or even dangerous side effects. We CAN NOT administer any medications.
Light housekeeping
We can assist by doing laundry, making the bed, cleaning out the refrigerator, and putting away groceries and other “light duty” chores. This does not include any climbing, lifting or moving of heavy objects, any yard work, or home repairs.
Light meal assistance and preparation
Our Caregivers can assist with healthy meal planning, grocery shopping, and preparation of meals as well as provide clean up after meals.
Ambulation and transferring assistance
We can safely assist clients with walks outside for exercise and fresh air, including wheel-chair bound clients being safely transferred from bed to chair, chair to wheel-chair, and wheel-chair to car.
Household organization/Errands
This can include accompanying the Client on doctor visits, to the bank, post office, hair or nail salon, or to the library or local senior center to visit with friends.
Companionship
Help the Client keep in touch with family and friends via phone, email, or even video chat. Caregivers can engage in conversation, read aloud from a newspaper or books, or enjoy a classic or newly released movie with client. We can also suggest new activities which may bring the Client enjoyment. And sometimes just being there helps and provides a sense of security.
