Follow & Share
Caring for an elderly family member at home requires time, patience and the right trained support. Many seniors prefer to stay in their own home but still need daily help with routine activities, mobility, and overall well-being. Care247 provides trained and verified caretakers who offer dependable elder care at home.
This guide explains what a senior citizen care taker does, what they do not do, and how Care247 helps families make informed decisions.
Who Needs a Senior Citizen Care Taker
A senior care taker is ideal for elders who:
Need help with bathing, dressing and hygiene
Require assistance with mobility or walking
Feel lonely or isolated
Need support with mealtime and daily routines
Need someone responsible present at home during the day
Require supervision due to age-related conditions
Daily Duties of a Senior Citizen Care Taker
Daily Routine Support
Care247 caretakers help seniors with daily tasks such as bathing, grooming, dressing, toileting, feeding and basic hygiene. They ensure the senior feels comfortable and safe throughout the day.
Medication Reminders and Observation
They remind seniors to take medicines on time, assist with basic monitoring like BP or sugar (if required), and observe any changes in behaviour or health. Families receive regular updates.
Emotional Support and Companionship
Caretakers engage seniors through conversations, reading, light activities or simply sitting with them. It reduces loneliness and creates emotional comfort.
Safety and Mobility Help
Caretakers help seniors move safely inside the home, assist during sitting and standing, and ensure the environment is clutter-free to prevent falls.
Light Household Support
They prepare simple meals, serve food, maintain the senior’s room, organise essential items and ensure a clean and hygienic space around the senior.
Appointment and Hospital Support
Caretakers can accompany seniors on doctor visits, help with mobility and communicate updates to the family. Care247 can also coordinate nurses, physiotherapists and doctors at home when required.
What Care247 Caretakers Do Not Do
Not a Housemaid
They do not clean the entire house, wash utensils for the family, cook for the entire household or manage general household chores.
Not Medical Professionals
Caretakers do not provide injections, IV/IM medication, wound dressing or any medical procedures. These require a home nurse or doctor.
No Heavy Lifting
They do not lift seniors on their shoulders, drag immobile patients or perform unsafe physical movements that can cause injury.
No Financial or Legal Responsibilities
Caretakers are not responsible for handling money, banking, wills, jewellery or making decisions on behalf of the senior.
No Personal Errands
Caretakers do not run household errands, go out for personal tasks or stay overnight unless booked specifically for night duty.
