The week has been declared by the Legislative Assembly of the Province of Ontario in honour of the many and varied services provided by approximately 6,000 Homemakers who work 'out of 51 not,for- profit, community-based agencies across Ontario. Homemakers, provide a wide range of ser- vices that enable young and older clients to remain living in their own homes and avoid or -delay -institutionalization, -The -strength -- of the 'Homemaking service is bound up in the value most people place on living in. a 'home of one's own' where one can feel in- dependent, useful and secure," says Jean Young, chairman of the Ontario Association of Visiting Homemaker Services (OAVHS). • Homemaker services are determined by individual client needs and niayinclude per- sonal care, light exercise, emotional sup- port, household tasks and assisting with client contact to other community services such as Meals on Wheels. Unlike housekeepers, ' Homemakers '• receive skills training from agency and community professionals on topics such as aging and attitudes, body mechanics and Algheimer's Disease. In addition, a 120 -hour training program is currently being offered by 19 community colleges m the province. Such training enables Homemakers to pro- vide services sudh as nutritional counsel ing, home management and personal, palliativerand_child_care Perhaps the most distinctive quality at- tributed to Homemakers is their reputation' for bringing more to their work than skills. Individuals and families who have received Homemaker, services speak of Homemakers as caring individuals who are -able to 'hake. an important difference .in home life. Often, Homemakers can alleviate the stress that may accompany unexpected or long-term illness in a family. For frail elderly persons who live alone, a liomemAker may be the only visitor of the day, *no along with doing household chores and assembling a meal that can be cooked later, provides important hours of conversa- tion and company. For parents who are recovering from an illness, Homemakers can provide the necessary child care that - allows the parent time to rest and recuperate. By bringing their valuable services wherever they: are needed, Homemakers can indeed, make -a difference There will be a "Balloon Releasing Ceremony on Saturday, October 17 at 10 a.m. at the corner Of Main and Gouvenlock Street to kick off celebrations to honor Homemakers in Huron County.
