“When it comes to caring for an aging loved one, or a family member with a disability or injury, families struggle to make the right decision,” says Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services. Many families want to provide care themselves but can’t always provide all the time and services needed.

Prioritize Licensing and Certification – The best in-home health care services employ caregivers and nurses who are fully certified and licensed. Most require full background screening to ensure only safe, reliable caregivers access your home or the home of your loved one. In addition to individual credentials, top home health services are licensed by the state and often specifically for Alzheimer’s and dementia care.

A Higher Standard of Care is a Must – While there are likely several home health service providers in the area, be sure to look for those that have earned a reputation in the community for providing a higher standard of care. This means hiring caregivers who truly love what they do. The goal is to find a service that goes above and beyond with caregivers ready to treat their patients as family.

Friendly, Personable Staff – Top-rated medical expertise and qualifications are necessary, but so are friendliness and personality. It’s easy to focus exclusively on medical experience and forget how a home health aide’s personality or’ bedside manner’ will mesh with your family. Don’t be afraid to ask questions and take the opportunity to learn about each individual visiting your home.

When elderly parents begin to show signs of aging, living independently gets complicated, even dangerous with cooking, cleaning and other tasks.

Here’s how to promote safe, senior independence with qualified in-home care.

Safety First for Peace of Mind
The right caregiver can assist your loved one, keeping them safe when you can’t be there. With meal preparation, light housework, and daily grooming, a caregiver assists as needed, giving seniors the freedoms they want with the helping hand they need.

Medical Support and Guidance
With a daily visit from an in-home nurse, family members know that their loved one receives the medical attention they need, taking medication correctly. Nurses can also assist with other medical needs like administering shots or changing bandages after surgery.

Dependable Transportation
Senior travel is an activity many families struggle to control with aging loved ones. An in-home caregiver can help your loved one with this task also. With safe, dependable transportation, families don’t need to worry that mom or dad will miss appointments or get into trouble on the roads.

Firstat Nursing Services has been providing a higher standard of home nursing, home health and home care services for elderly, disabled and injured people in the greater San Diego area since 1997.
