“Health care professionals agree, seniors thrive when given the tools to age at home. If you’re considering the options with in-home skilled nursing care, but not quite exactly sure how it works, you’re not alone,” says Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services. Relying on help is a practical way to ensure a loved one receives the expert attention they deserve.

Here’s some information on in-home skilled nursing, and how it can help.

Skilled Nursing Services, But at Home
In-home skilled nursing services help people live independently at home, whether it’s a patient recovering from surgery, someone who needs help managing a chronic disease or just an aging senior. Comprehensive care is provided in the home by professional RNs, LVNs and CNAs who are specially trained in specific conditions. With emotional guidance, help administering medications, even friendship, in-home caregivers provide the tools seniors need to live safely and comfortably.

When In-Home Care is Appropriate
There are many reasons why families choose in-home skilled nursing services. Sometimes life events, like surgery, make it difficult to get through daily activities making assistance a welcome addition. Seniors who want to age at home often need more help than family members can provide, and professional care is a practical solution. For others, a challenging disease like Alzheimer’s or Dementia can make living at home difficult without help.

Choosing a Trusted In-Home Skilled Nursing Service
Choosing a qualified nursing service is important. With expertise a top priority, it helps to turn to friends and family who have used nursing care at home for recommendations. Business longevity is important too. Look for companies that have been around for a few years, with a good reputation. And, don’t forget to visit in person to meet the team and ask questions. Choosing the right nursing service is critical for ensuring your loved one is treated with compassion, dignity and kindness.

Promote Better Quality of Life for Seniors – Homecare Agency Poway

Sunday, May 26th, 2019

Family members often take great strides to ensure aging loved ones live healthy, happy lives. But with limited physical abilities, disease and different interests than younger family members, it can be tough to keep a senior loved one happy. Can in-home nursing help? You might be surprised.

Here are three ways bringing a compassionate caregiver into the home can build better communication with a senior loved one.

Regular, Dependable Companionship
Few people realize that at home skilled nursing agencies offer more than medical expertise. While a trained, competent expert is an invaluable help, many caregivers visit the home with plans to play card games, watch movies and spend time with an aging patient looking for companionship. The right agency can help you choose the perfect companion for your family member, giving you peace of mind and security in knowing they are having fun.

Keep Seniors Mentally and Physically Active
A trained health care provider can help aging seniors pursue an active lifestyle in a safe, controlled way. This could mean taking daily walks in the neighborhood, light shopping or simply moving about the home in a safe, comfortable way. With a caregiver available to provide mental and physical stimulation, seniors and aging loved ones can continue to engage in activities they enjoy.

An in-Home Nurse Decreases Stress, Tension at Home
With a competent nurse at home with an aging senior, other family members are free to pursue their own responsibilities, easing tension and stress. Families appreciate having more time to relax, spend quality time with loved ones and enjoy personal activities on their own without worrying that a senior family member needs attention.
