Firstat Nursing Services, an elder care home health agency serving the Chula Vista and the greater San Diego area shares timely guide, 3 Reasons to Choose Skilled Nursing Care.
“Modern families often face difficult decisions regarding how or who will provide care when an aging loved one needs special attention,” says Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services. Nursing assistance at home is an option, and in many ways, a better choice than moving into a long-term care facility.
The worry over a loved one’s health and safety, coupled with trying to manage medical appointments and other family members busy schedules, can leave caregivers stressed. A home health care service provider can help keep stress levels manageable.
Here are three practical reasons why quality skilled nursing care at home may be the right choice.
Promote Safe Independence – Seniors who live on their own without help may face challenges with mobility or discomfort that can cause concern for worried family members. Children of aging seniors worry that mom or dad will slip and fall or injure themselves while alone. When safety is a top priority, having a trained professional on hand to help guide and help a loved one make safe choices at home is an invaluable resource.
Dedicated, Personal Care – Hire a skilled nurse to visit the home and they place all their attention on one patient, rather than attending to many different people at the same time. For your loved one, this type of one-on-one, focused care helps build strong bonds with their caregiver, giving you peace of mind and comfort that the attention they receive is compassionate and attentive.
An Affordable, Customizable Solution – The average cost of hiring an at-home skilled nurse to help is often less than expected. Families on a strict budget or who are uncertain how to fund a long-term care solution are delighted to learn that part time help is available. In many cases, seniors only need a helping hand for a few hours each week, making at-home skilled nursing an affordable, customizable solution.
