Senior Helpers Boston
About
Senior Helpers Boston and South Shore provides in-home care that helps older adults age in place in Newton, Needham, Brookline, Wellesley, Boston neighborhoods and dozens of South Shore communities. Services range from companion care and help with daily living to specialized care for people with Alzheimer’s, dementia, Parkinson’s and other chronic conditions. Caregivers handle personal care such as bathing, grooming and mobility assistance, and the agency also supports people returning home from a hospital or skilled nursing stay.
Care plans begin with the LIFE Profile, a five-part assessment scoring factors linked to successful aging, which shapes a customized SmartCare Plan. For dementia, the Senior Gems program matches activities and communication to a person’s stage of cognitive change, and caregivers complete a Parkinson’s-specific certification. Testimonials on the agency’s site praise the consistency of its caregivers and its responsiveness, including scheduling an aide the same night one family reached out.
