Point Loma Caregivers Agency, Firstat of San Diego Offering Home Health Services, Publishes Ways In-Home Skilled Nursing Can Build Senior Independence.
“Most experts agree that seniors age better at home, where they are comfortable and surrounded by familiar things,” says Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services. With the help of a skilled nurse, aging loved ones can get the tools they need to stay in the home they love.
Here are 3 ways a qualified in-home skilled nursing service can build senior independence.
Expert Medical Help
Whether they’re fighting a chronic condition like diabetes or struggling with arthritis, many seniors rely on various medications and occasional injections for good health. With a variety of pills and varied dosage amounts, staying on track can be complicated. With a competent nurse on hand, families know a medication regime will be followed and administered correctly and safely.
Every Day Assistance
In-home nursing services are not limited to providing just medical assistance. In fact, many visiting nurses help elderly patients with a variety of common day-to-day activities, from cooking meals and doing household chores to providing safe transportation. When mobility issues prevent a loved one from moving about the home safely, having a helping hand to assist is an invaluable asset.
Specialized Care
Families often face tremendous difficulties dealing with the uncertainties of complicated diseases like Alzheimer’s or dementia. With help from an in-home skilled nursing service, families have more energy to spend meaningful time with a loved one, staying close and connected as the disease progresses. Specially trained experts are available to meet both the mental and physical needs of families and loved ones progressing through the difficult phases of the disease.
