Kelly Cope from Patriot Home Care joined Matt Drzik on the April 11 edition of A.M. Beaver County to discuss the services that Patriot provides; services designed to assist older clients (or those who qualify) to maintain independent living in the comfort of their homes and the surrounding area.

Cope spoke about the comfort and flexibility that clients with Patriot have in choosing how much assistance they desire to have. “We try to keep them in their own home,” she stated. “We have clients that require 10 hours a week, we have clients that are 24/7 and around the clock.” She spoke about how PHC will assess clients and help them out in the comfort of their own homes to maintain independent living; different from assisted living at a remote location.

PHC is also looking for caretakers on their staff as well, but Cope says that the job isn’t necessarily easy: “You have to able to be around people, you have to want to take care of people…you have to have some sort of compassion to be wanting to take care of people [in order] to do this job.”
