What is a PCA?
Who are A King’s Touch PCAs?
Our Personal Care Aides (PCA) work to assist our patients with their daily tasks, including basic hygiene, house upkeep, cooking and eating, running errands, and many of their day-to-day activities. As your care provider, we make sure to provide you with the best caregiver to fit your personal preferences. All scheduling is done on our end, so you are always taken care of.
What services do PCAs provide?
PCAs provide many of the necessary services to help our patients continue living a full and meaningful life. PCAs work with physically disabled, mentally challenged, and elderly patients as their personal care assistant as well as their social companion. They will help them get in and out of bed, assist with getting dressed, bathing, grooming, meal preparation, as well as run light errands, go shopping, bring in the mail, and much more.

We understand that losing some of the life’s basic functionalities can be challenging. We also understand that asking or accepting help can be difficult in itself. We, therefore, ensure that all our PCAs are trained to provide the highest level of care while remaining sensitive to the needs and feelings of our patients. We ensure that our caregivers are providing the best possible care, by running frequent evaluations on all our staff.
