Message
from the President :
Conceptualized in 2005, Dare to Dream Attendant Services strives to keep people with disabilities and seniors comfortable in their homes. So often in today's world, we isolate the elderly and disabled by putting people into facilities, where they are often prevented from a life of choice and stripped of dignities. Every human being deserves the right live by their own choices and if need be, let the persons care be done by a personal assistant or a registered nurse. As the owner of Dare to Dream Attendant Services and a person with a disability myself, I know what it is like having to depend on people and trust people coming into my home and seeing the very intimate details of my life. I feel, as the president of this company, it is my highest regard to expect nothing less than the best from my staff.

Safety

Our
Philosophy
Here
at Dare to Dream Attendant Services, we believe that each individual has
the right to live a dignified life with their own identity, regardless of
impairments related to daily living. Most of our focus is on quality of
life and consumer choice. People who work for Dare to Dream Attendant Services
understand that everyone has their own lifestyle and choice of care.
Ability
- We believe that everyone has the ability to live their own lives and make
their own decisions. Our providers help facilitate the abilities of the
individual. The disability is put aside when there is above average care
that can be provided on a personal or non-personal care level.
We
C.A.R.E.
Community
- is a place for everyone. People with disabilities and seniors deserve
the right to live at home with quality care, consumer choice and maximum
independence. Due to my own disability, I use a wheelchair, and have started
this business to make sure that people with disabilities and seniors alike,
get to participate in the universal dream of a life of as much freedom and
independence as possible.
Nursing
Care:
A client will often request nursing care for in home medical treatment, monitoring, safety, and recovery of acutely or chronically ill or injured people, the health maintenance of healthy individuals, and the on-going treatment and assessment of life-threatening medical emergencies in a wide range of health care settings.
Personal Care:
A client will often ask for personal care when non-invasive care is needed. This may include a wide range of activities including dressing, bathing, grooming, feeding, transfers, repositioning, companionship, assistance with toileting, mobility assistance, running errands, and laundry.

Knowing
the difference
Nursing care vs. Personal Care
Nursing care vs. Personal Care
Empowerment
- To be empowered means, to someone with a disability, the right to be able
to live life the same way everyone does. We empower people with disabilities
and seniors by giving them choices in everything they do. Everyone deserves
to feel good about their mind, body, and spirit. Our caregivers understand
this and do their job well the first time. Dare to Dream Attendant
Services hopes to empower more and more seniors and people with disabilities.
Respect
- Our providers understand that everyone has different needs and different
capabilities. We respect the right of the individual to be involved in the
process of care. We also respect the array of different cultures that exist
in our world. The people who Dare to Dream Attendant Services employs are
people who we demand respect and integrity from, from the time they walk
in the door. There is a strict application and fingerprinting process from
the Department of Justice. I, myself, if you haven't already figured it
out from the front cover, require assistance 24 hours a day and 7 days a
week, so I understand the real meaning of respect from many different levels.
Part of respect means having to be on-time; to be a hard worker, but most
importantly, love what you do and who you work with.
