Senior Helpers – Southwest Columbus

Senior Helpers of Southwest Columbus is a franchise office in Grove City providing companion care, personal care, Alzheimer's and dementia care, Parkinson's care, transitional care and end-of-life support. Its website offers respite care so family caregivers can rest or tend to other responsibilities, and care can be scheduled hourly, daily, overnight or 24/7. Caregivers are trained in the Senior Gems dementia program, and the Parkinson's program includes a specialized caregiver certification. Families in reviews say the director covered the hours they needed right away, came out personally to assess the home, and that caregivers drove them to surgery and helped with laundry and housekeeping.

Caregivers provide companionship, help around the house and with errands, and personal care such as bathing, grooming and mobility, with care manager assessments to adjust the plan. Dementia care follows the Senior Gems program, and caregivers who care for people with Parkinson's complete a specialized certification. Care can be hourly, daily, overnight or 24/7, and caregivers can also sit with a loved one in the hospital or support end-of-life care alongside hospice.

The office is at 1675 Gateway Cir, Grove City, OH 43123, and lists Columbus, Grove City, London, Plain City, Circleville, Harrisburg, Williamsport, Mount Sterling, Galloway, Commercial Point and Orient as areas served. Care starts with a no-obligation in-home assessment that covers needs, pricing and payment options. The office works with veterans' assistance organizations to help veterans and spouses apply for benefits while care begins. The site lists Ohio license #4396HHN; call (380) 979-1340.
