Senior Helpers of Lancaster County Achieves Prestigious CHAP Age-Friendly Care at Home Certification

2024-09-26T21:56:54-04:00September 26th, 2024|Tags: , , , , , , , , |

EPHRATA, Pa. — Senior Helpers, the nation’s premier provider of in-home senior care services, is the first private duty in-home care provider in the United States to be Age-Friendly Care at Home certified by Community Health Accreditation Partners (CHAP). On August 26, 2024, locally owned Senior Helpers of Lancaster County joined the list of Senior Helpers CHAP Age-Friendly Care at Home Certified locations.

“Senior Helpers’ achievement as the pioneering Age-Friendly Care certified home care organization is truly remarkable. Their proactive approach in implementing numerous tools to enhance care for older adults, even before receiving the AFC certification, speaks volumes about their commitment to excellence,” said Teresa Harbour, COO of CHAP. “Their use of LIFE Profile to reduce the risk of hospitalizations, their Senior Gems program for dementia care, and their Centers for Excellence for staff training and competency set them up for success, so adding the Age-Friendly Care at Home Certification was a logical next step.”

Owners, Kent and Rebekah Terry stated, “It is an honor to be the first franchise in the country to attain this certification. Our decision to voluntarily pursue this certification, further demonstrates our dedication to providing a higher standard of care throughout Lancaster County.”

What is Age-Friendly Care at Home?

The first-of-its-kind certification was created to help meet the demand for high-quality care for older adults and showcases companies that use all-encompassing, person-centered care to address the unique needs of every individual. The focus is on the 4Ms (What Matters, Medication, Mentation, and Mobility), a research-backed and evidence-based approach to care. To receive the CHAP certification, Senior Helpers of Lancaster County worked to ensure that the 4Ms Framework is an integral part of operations and daily interactions with clients.

  1. What Matters puts clients at the center of care and empowers them to be involved in goalsetting and preferences for their care.
  2. Medication should be used in an age-friendly way that does not interfere with What Matters to the client.
  3. Mentation focuses on preventing, identifying, treating, and managing depression and dementia.
  4. Mobility ensures older adults move safely and maintain function so they can do What Matters to them.

CHAP provides training, certification, and accreditation for senior care providers, ensuring quality and compliance with the highest standards of care using the 4M Framework and other guidelines.

Senior Helpers Elevates Care Standards for Seniors

In addition to the CHAP certification, Senior Helpers of Lancaster County elevates its care for clients through three key programs: the proprietary LIFE Profile assessment tool, the Senior Gems® program, and the Center of Excellence training spaces.

LIFE Profile is a research-based technology tool that uses data to identify a client’s risk of being hospitalized.

The Senior Gems® program provides effective strategies for supporting and caring for loved ones from normal aging through late-stage dementia, focusing on what is precious and unique about each senior at each stage.

The Senior Helpers Center of Excellence is a training space designed to simulate a client’s home, allowing caregivers to learn and train in a real-world environment and demonstrate their ability to provide the highest quality of care in a client’s home.

Senior Helpers of Lancaster County provides in-home care for seniors to help them age in place and live quality lives. They provide personalized care, including chronic disease care, Alzheimer’s, dementia and Parkinson’s care, transportation, end-of-life care, and more.
