The Benefits of Senior Home Health Care

We realize that most family members have concerns about sending their senior relatives to a nursing facility because they are unfamiliar with those environments. Families may not feel comfortable with the idea of moving their loved one out of his or her home to receive care.

Convenience and Less Stress

A-1 Action Nursing Care offers a far better solution that may be more convenient and less stressful on your loved ones and family members. Instead of moving your aging senior into an entirely new place, a home health caregiver can visit them each day to provide assistance for the various needs which are required to help them with their activities of daily living (ADL’s). Even though we can provide assistance every day, some families may require less frequent visits. This assistance can vary greatly from client to client, and the immediate family most often can help by communicating to our office and staff their major concerns and needs about their loved one.

Don't Downsize and Keep Your Heirlooms

Another added plus is that when staying at home, there is no need to downsize. Your senior family member does not need to pick out one dresser, one chair, and a few of their treasured belongings. Staying at home allows them to maintain their family heirlooms and valued possessions. This gives your loved one more of a sense of purpose and independence because this is a much less drastic transition by not having everything they have worked for to be taken away.

Professional Help Right Away

Home health care for seniors allows all of the professional help and care they could ever want or need right at home. Our caregivers can relieve the burdens that your loved ones are having difficulty with, in completing their day to day routines. The caregivers can assist with chores and/or prepare meals. Should your senior family member have a problem remembering to take their medication, our private duty assistant is there to remind them. The senior home health care providers are able to help with personal hygiene, bathing, and dressing. The caregivers are also available for helping with laundry and light housework. Other responsibilities which are able to be provided include assistance with standing and walking and assistance with transferring to and from bed to chair or commode. If help is needed to go to the store or doctors, the caregivers are there to assist. It is always good to have a second pair of ears when your senior relative is going to the doctor. The home health provider is available to go into the doctor’s office so that they can hear any instruction that might possibly be missed in the translation from the doctor. This assistance provides a much easier transition as when more help is needed throughout the day. Our caregivers are there for your loved one, to assist them to live as comfortably and independent as possible at home.

Live Where You Want To

By having A-1 Action Nursing Care provide you with a home caregiver means allowing your senior relative to stay right where he or she prefers to live, at home.
