Winter Is Coming…<br />
Lindsey Harmsen<br />
Manager, Good Samaritan Society Services@Home<br />
Days are colder and nights are longer – ‘tis the<br />
season for the holidays. “Winter is the time for comfort,<br />
good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand<br />
and for a talk beside the fire: it’s the time for home.” –<br />
Edith Sitwell<br />
With the holiday season fast approaching comes<br />
the hustle and bustle. With everything moving so<br />
quickly, it is hard to remember the true meaning of the<br />
holiday season.<br />
Good Samaritan Society Services@Home staff<br />
and caregivers make it our goal to help our clients and<br />
their families continue to have those holiday traditions.<br />
We can help with meal planning and preparation, to<br />
driving our clients to and from their family gatherings,<br />
or simply attending their holiday church services with<br />
them.<br />
What sets us apart from other home care agencies<br />
is this: we can provide services in less than 24 hours of<br />
being contacted by a potential client. A consultation is<br />
free of charge and our contracts are non-binding. You are<br />
only charged for the services that we provide. Each client<br />
has their own specific care plan, tailored to providing<br />
quality care for their specific needs – whether that is<br />
a one-hour visit or around-the-clock shift care.<br />
Good Samaritan Society Services@Home also<br />
has high standards and expectations for our caregivers<br />
and staff. Our staff and caregivers are extensively<br />
screened, experienced, bonded, and insured. They<br />
also receive special training to respond and recognize<br />
individual needs for our clients.<br />
If you or someone you know may benefit<br />
from our services, please call (844) 359-4446 or visit<br />
our website at www.good-sam.com/quadcityhome.<br />
A t a certain<br />
point, home<br />
becomes not simply<br />
where we live but<br />
who we are.<br />

the Quad Cities and surrounding<br />
