Often we take for granted the simplest of tasks and daily pleasures: shopping, buying groceries, going out to eat or just visiting. Not until these little pleasures become limited or even completely stopped due to aging issues, illness or an injury, do we really appreciate their impact on our personal independence.
Every day many of our elderly or disabled neighbors face barriers that restrict their ability to enjoy the freedom and independence they once did. Whether it’s a challenge to travel away from home or a task now too difficult to perform on their own, many of these barriers and restrictions may now be minimized or even removed, while allowing the individual more freedom, more independence and a more enjoyable outlook on today and tomorrow.
Out-n-Bout offers a new and unique array of services - specially designed for the individual and their individual needs.
Whether it’s transportation for a local shopping trip or a trip to the nearest mall, we can provide it. Trips can be arranged for paying bills, buying groceries, going out to eat, attending social/church events or just to ride and visit a friend or view the changing leaves. It’s up to the individual.
In-home services can include light house work, laundry, writing checks, helping with a grocery list, preparing a meal or even organizing old pictures in that box you have been putting off for some time now.
Out-n-Bout is not a cookie cutter program, for everyone likes different things at different places and in different ways. We can help organize your closets, cabinets and drawers, take you to the Farmer’s Market, wrap gifts, do birthday and Christmas cards, shred old papers (we provide the shredder), arrange to have your leaves raked, and even be a golf partner if you feel up to par.
We understand the importance of being active, getting out to do some of the things you like and want to do. However, even if you can’t travel outside your home, little things still matter. Having someone there willing to give you time, patience and an ear to listen can be just as fulfilling to someone confined at home during the day as a trip to the mall for others.
Don’t wait, wish and wonder if you may enjoy some of those simple yet special things again. Give us a call and we’ll do them together. |
