Business : Homecare Assistance/NuCara Home Medical open in Vinton

Jess Fairbanks isn't new to the home care needs nor new to Vinton. Jess and her family reside here in Vinton. Fairbanks has had her business in the Cedar Falls location for four and half years. Currently, she has 56 employees in Cedar Falls and 12 here in Vinton.

Fairbanks' heart is with serving the needs of our elderly, but she also serves anyone who needs her help. The company assists in the homes with those that need a hand in their home due to dementia, Parkinson's, strokes, and those with any other kind of health issues that require an extra hand. The business also works in conjunction with Hospice to meet the needs of anyone who needs help around their homes. 

The business provides non-medical care for those in need. They help with meal preparation, medication reminder, any daily activities that might be needed which might even include rides to doctor appointments. 

They do offer medical equipment in the Vinton location and can bring anything you need to run through insurance from their Cedar Falls location.  

If you've ever been a caregiver, you understand the responsibility and burden associated with taking care of a loved one. Often the burden falls on family members to care for parents or grandparents. Sometimes the load can just be too much between juggling a job as well as trying to meet the needs of another person who might require assistance. The choice comes down to giving up other social interactions or suffering in your own health. 

"Without support, these challenges cause stress, anxiety, and hardships and make providing care feel like a burden rather than a labor of love. Here at Home Care Assistance of the Cedar Valley, we provide solutions to the challenges family caregivers face," said Jessica Fairbanks.

While assisting at home, the business provides care, home assessments, lift chairs, bathroom safety, walkers, wheelchairs and other forms of assistance.
