Lynda Walp: A Client Story, Arcy at Home

Arcy at Home’s caregivers can assist with bathing/showering, dressing, transferring, feeding, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and laundry - all “activities of daily living.”
Lynda Walp Palliative Care Story

Arcy at Home brings comfort and familiarity to seniors by providing comprehensive personal assistance services in their own homes, reducing the need to transition to elder care facilities.

Take for instance, Lynda Walp, age 86, who is both an Arcy Hospice and an Arcy at Home client. Lynda was a homemaker and according to her family, the best mother ever. She was a lifelong teacher, who at age 65, received a master’s in education. Lynda is currently living at home with her daughter and son-in-law and in the care of both Arcy Hospice and Arcy at Home.

Lynda’s hospice team visits several times each week, for about an hour at a time, but it simply is not enough care. Because of her advanced Alzheimer’s Disease, Lynda requires help with all “activities of daily living” and is unable to make her needs known. Looking for more assistance, her family reached out to Arcy at Home. Arcy at Home’s caregivers can assist with bathing/showering, dressing, transferring, feeding, meal preparation, light housekeeping, and laundry. Caregivers come to Lynda’s house for several hours each day to assist with her care.

Her son-in-law explains the difference Arcy at Home has made in their lives this way, “We switched to Arcy at Home after four months and 13 caregivers trying to find ‘the one’ caregiver that we could consider ours with consistent, caring, and competent care. Arcy has been with us since July 2023 and we are just so happy. Not one hour has been less than fantastic! Even the managers and billing people are all super responsive. We have confidence in this team; they are so solid.”
