State licensing regulations dictate what services are considered “medical” in nature and cannot be performed by non-medical providers of in-home care. As a rule, unless otherwise indicated, our S.T.A.R.s cannot do the following:
Lifting: We can assist clients who use walkers or wheelchairs but we cannot lift dead weight.
Medications: We cannot touch medications. We can only remind our clients to take prescribed medications.
Nail Trimming or Hair Cutting: We can escort our clients to a manicurist, podiatrist, or hair salon.
Medical Emergencies: We can only call 911 and stabilize the surroundings to avoid further injury.
