“Caring for an aging or ill loved one at home isn’t easy. Done well, it can be extremely rewarding to spend time with and care for a beloved family member, rather than have them admitted to a long-term facility,” says Linnea Goodrich, president of Firstat Nursing Services. Nevertheless, the job is challenging, and family can benefit from professional help.
Here are 3 ways in-home nursing services can support family caregivers.
Medical Expertise at the Ready – In many cases, caring for a loved one at home doesn’t involve more than assisting with typical day-to-day activities. But what happens when medications get complicated and you need professional guidance? Expertly trained in-home nursing services provide certified, licensed caregivers and the medical expertise families need.
A Well Deserved Break – Caring for a loved one at home is a full-time job, with few opportunities for rest. A demanding schedule is next to impossible to keep, prompting many families to supplement with a few hours of professional care. A friendly, skilled nurse can visit the family home 2 days a week or 2 hours a day – meeting specific needs and schedules.
Assist with Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care – The best in-home nursing services employ caregivers who are specifically trained in handling the uncertainties and complications of difficult diseases, like Alzheimer’s and Dementia. With full certification, skilled nurses can help ease stress by providing guidance and support as families navigate these difficult situations.
