Housekeeping Assistance as Defined by IDOA
Light housekeeping includes things like dusting of surfaces and knickknacks, as well as picking up newspapers, magazines and other clutter. It also includes emptying the trash, vacuuming and sweeping of main walk areas. In a nutshell light housekeeping is completing the specific tasks required to tidy up areas that a client uses.
Examples of what a light housekeeping service does NOT include are heavy‐duty cleaning tasks that require moving heavy furniture, washing outside windows nor does it include outside chores such as mowing the grass.
Light housekeeping, as part of a homecare service, is offered and restricted to the client and those areas used by the client. Typically, that means the kitchen, living room, bedroom and bathroom. It should not be confused as a housekeeping service as light housekeeping is only one part of an overall care service provided to an elderly or disabled adult to make their lives safer and more pleasant.
Responsibility in Caring for Pets
Home Life Healthcare recognized the value of a pet to the client’s well‐bring and expects that caregivers perform general pet care tasks. These include
Tasks that are NOT required but can be performed at the caregiver’s discretion
Tasks that should not be performed by the caregiver
When assigning a caregiver to a client with pets in the home, the care coordinator will attempt to make the best match possible for the client and the caregiver. In the case of pet care, the care coordinator will not send a caregiver into a home with animals if they know the caregiver has allergies to these animals. A supervisor may also need to consider if the caregiver has extreme fear of an animal. In this instance, the worker may still be able to provide services to the client if the animal remains restrained and/or in another room during the provision of the service.
