CONTRIBUTED CONTENT — More often than not, aging adults want to spend their golden years in the cherished place they call home. In-home assistance helps seniors maintain their dignity as they grow older while receiving the care they need to stay as healthy and independent as possible.

Reyna Care, a new business in Southern Utah, provides personalized services that are designed to keep seniors actively involved in their daily lives. Skilled caregivers offer specialized assistance to ensure the safety and well-being of every client within the comfortable, familiar surroundings of their own home.
“It’s hard to find a caregiver that really cares,” said Kevin Peterson, the company’s president. “With us by your side, we’re ready to help you take care of your loved one at all times.”
Reyna Care offers non-medical, in-home care for seniors throughout St. George and surrounding communities. Services are tailored to meet the unique needs of each client and might include meal planning and preparation, medication reminders, housekeeping and household maintenance, transportation, and assistance with bathing, grooming and dressing.
Aging adults require attention, support and time that busy relatives don’t always have to spare. With Reyna Care, caregivers are available 24/7. Let them be your helping hand as you balance your many responsibilities with the assistance they need.
“It’s difficult for seniors to ask for help,” said Marcia Velez, Reyna Care’s vice president and senior caregiver/administrator. “It can be embarrassing for them to admit that they need help with things on a daily basis. They’re afraid of losing their independence and having to go into a care facility, so they suffer in silence.”

Reyna Care also provides companionship. If your elderly loved one lives alone and visits from friends and family are limited, regular social interaction is crucial for their well-being. Seniors can be matched with a Spanish-speaking caregiver if desired.
With America’s senior (over age 65) population expected to increase from 16% to approximately 22.5% by 2030, the need for in-home care is growing rapidly. Peterson created Reyna Care alongside Velez, a medical assistant who has spent the past seven years working in senior care, to provide essential services to Southern Utah’s aging adults.
“Like a lot of people, my parents retired here. Now they’re getting older, their friends are getting older, and we’ve noticed that a lot of people in this area need care they can get at home,” he said. “There’s a demand for it, but there aren’t enough qualified people to provide it.”
Reyna Care hires experienced caregivers and also provides a training program for people who are new to the industry but passionate about enriching the lives of aging adults. The company offers competitive pay rates and seeks committed team members who will grow with the business long-term.

If you’re ready to explore in-home assistance, Reyna Care always offers a free consultation. Clients and their families will fill out a comprehensive questionnaire to help the Reyna Care team better understand their needs. Next, a caregiver will visit their home for an assessment before writing up a customized care plan.
Affordability is often a key concern for clients considering in-home care. However, numerous resources, such as long-term care insurance, veterans’ benefits, and additional state and/or local programs, are available to assist with offsetting the cost. Reyna Care helps families navigate the often-complex landscape of care and coverage options.
“It can feel overwhelming and confusing at times,” Peterson said. “But whether you’re nearby or miles away, rest assured that we will treat your loved one with the dignity, respect and compassion they deserve.”
