Thursday, August 29th, 2019

Families looking to improve the quality of care a loved one receives often turn to skilled in home nursing as a practical solution. With proven medical expertise, companionship and more, professional in-home caregivers offer confidence, security and peace of mind.

If your family is considering at home help, here are the top three benefit of in-home skilled nursing services.

World-Class Medical Expertise at Home
Caring for an aging loved one, spouse or sick relative can be complicated. Ongoing treatment of a debilitating disease, even recovery after surgery often involves complicated medical treatment. A skilled nurse can relieve family members of having to administer complex or difficult medications or attend to medical needs. Having a trained professional with world-class medical expertise on hand is an invaluable asset, and a smart way to ensure a loved one gets the medical attention they need and deserve.

Promote Senior Independence and Happiness
Some experts contend that aging adults lead happier, more fulfilled lives when given the tools to stay at home, rather than move to an assisted facility. For many working families, in home care is a sensible solution. With mom or dad at home, a trained nurse can visit on a part time or full time basis, ensuring the home remains a safe, comfortable space. Over time, seniors who age at home experience increased mental awareness, socialization and more quality time with family.

Support and Guidance to Family Members
More than medical assistance, a qualified in-home nurse offers peace of mind and confidence to family members providing full time care for a loved one. With advice and guidance on how to handle difficult behavioral issues and uncertainties of debilitating disease, certified caregivers reduce stress and promote peace at home. With ongoing support and compassion, all family members are prepared to deal with the challenges of caring for a loved one at home.

Senior Caregivers Rancho Bernardo, Homecare Agency Shares Ways Home Health Care Protects Seniors

Friday, July 5th, 2019

Firstat Nursing Services, a Rancho Bernardo Caregivers and Homecare Agency shares “3 Ways Home Health Care Services Protects Seniors.”

“When a loved one faces a health or age-related fight, families just want to protect them from harm. But sometimes they don’t have the skills or resources to offer 24/7 support,” says Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services.

A home health care service provider bridges the gap, ensuring loved ones are protected from harms like avoidable illnesses, falls, and poor nutrition. Here are 3 ways home health care services protect your loved one.

Home Health Care Services Protect People from Avoidable Illnesses
Hospital stays and long-term institutional care facilities can sometime expose seniors to pneumonia, flu, and staph infections. Keeping loved ones in their own home often separates them from these harms. Home health care professionals come to patients’ homes and provide the sanitary nutritional, physical, mental, and social support to keep them comfortable and protected, both when patients are at home and when they must attend community appointments.

Home Health Care Services Protect People from Falls
Many patients needing age-related, chronic, or terminal care spend much of their time in bed. Time in bed often causes growing weakness, breathing difficulty, and dizziness when standing or walking. These symptoms lead to higher risk of falls. Treatments and medicines can add to this risk. Home health care service providers protect patients against falls by supporting them as they stand, walk, and shower.

Home Health Care Services Protect People from Poor Nutrition
People who suffer from age-related, chronic, or terminal illnesses are more at risk for dangerous complications when nutrition isn’t properly managed. Poor nutrition causes growing weakness, a poor immune system, and can even affect diseases like organ failure, dementia, cancer, and more. Home health care service providers help patients adhere to and eat a healthy diet on a daily basis. They offer grocery shopping, food preparation, and monitoring services for consistent and safe consumption.
