At-Home Exercise Assistance Services for Seniors
Qualicare is committed to providing services that make day-to-day life easier and more comfortable for our clients, but we also know the importance of regular exercise for their health.
Not only can we provide physical support through elderly exercise assistance services, but our caregivers will provide ongoing encouragement and emotional support for seniors during exercise programs.
With our aid, clients are able to maintain their physical health for longer. In turn, this allows clients to remain independent and mobile longer, as well as battle some issues we all face as we age, such as reduced strength or flexibility.
Our Exercise Assistance Services for Seniors
Exercise assistance for seniors can mean a lot of different things, depending on the client that’s being supported. Our caregivers are always ready to lend a gentle helping hand, regardless of the level of assistance each person requires.
For clients that still have a lot of mobility and energy, our caregivers can aid in creating personalized at home exercise programs for seniors. These will take into account each person’s individual health, physical condition, energy levels, and goals.
We can aid them in performing certain exercises that may require additional support, as well as give them any coaching they may need.
Plus, our caregivers can give clients much-needed emotional support and help encourage them through tough exercises that are good for their health, but less enjoyable to perform. A little bit of patience and support can go a long way towards building motivation.
For clients that have less mobility, our caregivers can still provide exercise services for seniors that are designed to assist with maintaining as much flexibility and strength as possible.
This typically means aiding with stretches throughout the day, as well as encouraging clients to go for walks when they have enough strength.
Benefits of At-Home Senior Exercise Assistance Services
The benefits of regular physical exercise are almost limitless. We feel better, and our bodies are able to process food better, which helps keep everything from our organs to our blood healthier.
There are countless pieces that have been published on the importance and benefits of including regular physical activity in our schedules (like this one from the Mayo Clinic).
It improves virtually every aspect of our lives through beneficial things like controlling weight, fighting off health conditions, improving our mood, boosting energy, and even helping with sleep.
If you believe your loved one could benefit from senior exercise assistance services, now is the time to start.
It’s never too late to start elderly exercise services, but the sooner a client starts a regimen of regular exercise, the sooner the positive impacts can begin to improve the quality of their daily lives.

Exercise Assistance Frequently Asked Questions:
Where Can Qualicare Clients Access Elderly Exercise Assistance Services?
We can help with at-home senior exercise programs for clients living in their own homes, or within nursing facilities, hospitals, and retirement communities.
What if a Client Doesn’t Want to Do Their Exercises?
While our caregivers would never force a client to perform their exercises without their consent and cooperation, Qualicare’s team are adept at helping clients see the value of performing their daily exercises.
We’ll always use patience, compassion, and a friendly voice to encourage and support clients that are having difficulty finding their motivation, so that by the time the exercises are done, the client is happy and comfortable.
Can Qualicare Clients Request Specific Exercises That They’d Like to Do?
Of course! We believe that enjoying senior exercise programs at home is almost as important as actually performing them. If clients have specific exercises that they enjoy, our caregivers will do our best to help make that a possibility for them.
What if a Client Refuses Help During Their Exercise Routine?
Qualicare works with our clients to encourage as much independence as possible for seniors, so when elderly clients don’t want exercise assistance, our caregivers are glad to stand by and cheer them on.
Don’t worry though – we’ll always stay close by, so that if a client decides that they would like (or need) some assistance, we’re right there; ready and waiting to jump in whenever necessary.
How Often Will Clients Have Exercise Assistance?
Although we’d recommend daily exercise services for seniors, Qualicare can arrange help as needed based on each client’s individual needs and preferences, whether that’s multiple sessions or once per week.
