We understand the challenges of caring for the elderly. From multiple comorbidities to polypharmacy and dementia, you have a lot to juggle. And so do the families of your patients. Sometimes it’s just too much to manage on their own.
Refer a patient to us when
- family lives far away.
- relatives are unable to provide the care that is needed. (For example, if a spouse has health problems as well. Or the adult children are working. Or tension or estrangement are part of the family dynamic.)
- an understanding of dementia is required to keep the patient safe while also promoting appropriate stimulation and quality of life.
- conditions call for special oversight (e.g., daily weight and blood pressure checks to catch a possible problem brewing).
- you worry that a readmission is likely due to a home situation ill equipped to handle the needs of a newly discharged patient.
If your patient needs excellent in-home care, please give us a call at 631-880-6321.
