Human and practical support to remain independent at home

Losing independence, even partially, does not mean you have to give up living at home. At Clinique Santé STAT, we believe that everyone deserves the support they need to remain at home in comfort, safety, and dignity. Our daily living assistance service (ADL/ADL) provides tailored assistance to people who need a helping hand to perform certain essential daily tasks.

Our healthcare professionals visit people in their homes to support those who have lost their independence, whether temporarily or permanently, with a professional, gentle, and respectful approach.

This service is available by appointment and does not require a doctor's prescription. It can be provided on an ad hoc basis or as part of a broader care plan.

What are ADL and IADL?

ADL (activities of daily living) and IADL (instrumental activities of daily living) refer to the essential tasks that enable a person to maintain their independence at home.

Qu’est-ce que l’AVQ et l’AVD ?

Our services include:

  • Personal hygiene (toileting, bathing, hygiene care);
  • Dressing, putting on or taking off clothes;
  • Feeding and assistance with meals
  • Mobility support (transfers, safe movement, fall prevention);
  • Assistance with indoor mobility;
  • Assistance with taking medication, if necessary;
  • Monitoring of general health and detection of signs of deterioration.

This care is often combined with other home services such as dressing changes, monitoring, wound care, or end-of-life care.

For whom is this service recommended?

The daily living assistance service is intended for anyone who:

  • Has difficulty performing personal care independently;
  • Is returning home after hospitalization or surgery;
  • Lives with a chronic illness, loss of mobility, or disability;
  • Is convalescing or in a state of temporary weakness;

Our services are also suitable for seniors who live alone and wish to maintain their independence for as long as possible. In all cases, our team provides compassionate, non-judgmental care with the utmost respect for privacy.

An approach based on dignity and listening

We know that asking for help with basic care can be a difficult step. That's why we pay particular attention to building a relationship of trust with the person being cared for. We intervene with discretion, patience, and gentleness, respecting each person's habits and preferences.

Each appointment is also an opportunity to discreetly assess the person's general condition, detect any potential health issues, or reassure loved ones about how the situation is progressing.

We are happy to work with families, caregivers, and other healthcare professionals to provide continuity of care and a safe home environment.
