Our Experienced Team of Caregivers

AV Home Care Services is fortunate to have a board of directors that is committed to our charitable mission, involved in the business of serving others through the work of agency oversight and guidance.

AV Home Care nurses provide assessment and care management.

This means that they follow each client over time, making changes to service plans as needed and generally being a valued resource of information and help for the client and family.

AV Home Care nurses also train and supervise our in-home staff, coaching them to address the unique needs of each client safely, efficiently and thoroughly.

Home health aides have completed the LNA course and passed its associated exams in order to be licensed by the NH Board of Nursing.

They are required to have continuing education yearly in-home health levels of care.

LNA’s are skilled at assistance with personal care, including:

  • Bathing, dressing, grooming

  • Oral hygiene
  • Ambulation and transferring (bed to chair, for example)
  • Assisting with therapist-prescribed exercise regimes
  • Shampooing and hairstyling
  • Medication reminders and assistance
  • Respite Care (for caregivers to get a break)

Homemakers have received training that is based on standardized models of home care practices.  They are skilled in assisting at-risk clients and families in the management of their households.
