For Everyone’s Peace of Mind
Receiving in-home elder care from nursing assistance and home health aides are a trusted option for many seniors who prefer to spend their final years at home for as long as it is practical. However, it’s important to have a comprehensive understanding of the benefits and scope of in-home healthcare.
Expicare certified Nursing Assistants are available to provide your elder with the specialized care they need from a licensed and highly trained in-home elder care nurse assistant or health aide. Give us a call today to learn more about how we can help your senior relative and provide peace of mind to your family.
Non-Emergency Medical Care
In-home elder care nursing assistants and home health aides are not a substitute for physicians, but they can fulfill certain non-emergency medical related care that most seniors require. This can provide enormous relief for family members. Loved ones can trust that most minor health concerns can be handled by the nursing assistant or health aide.
If additional medical care is required, these professionals can make that observation immediately and subsequently take appropriate measures without delay. In this way, an in-home elder care nursing assistant or aide can be the perfect stopgap for a senior who prefers to stay in the family home rather than move to an unfamiliar nursing home.
Supporting Senior Recovery
If your loved one is scheduled to undergo surgery and will require specialized care during their recovery time, give us a call. Our in-home elder care nursing assistants and home health aides are available on a temporary basis. Nursing homes and assisted living communities rarely have short term availability, and will probably not be able to offer the one-on-one personalized care that our in-home elder care professionals can provide.
A Senior’s Sense of Independence
One of the primary reasons for why a senior may not wish to move from their family home to a nursing home is that they anticipate losing their sense of independence. Indeed, that scenario can easily play out when the patient’s entire day is scheduled by the staff rather than the patient.
With an in-home elder care nursing assistant or health aide from Expicare Nursing monitoring their general health, a senior can enjoy more freedom to continue the routines they established many years ago — whether that be watching their favorite television programs, reading, or enjoying the birdlife out their living room window. In other words, their daily life does not necessarily have to change despite needing more specialized care that ensures their safety and quality of life.
