At Home Hospice Care in Covina

Home Hospice Care can be great for a family who wants to be close to their Elderly loved one in the short time they have left.  Many people don’t seek out hospice care because they aren’t sure what it is.  Hospice Care is treatment that focuses on controlling pain and providing comfort instead of life-sustaining or cure-finding treatment.  Financial worries can be another deterrent, but many private health insurance plans cover it, as well as Medicare if you qualify.

You’re not alone in the struggle and worry for your Elderly or Senior parent.  For the baby boomer generation, millions are putting their own retirement planning on hold as they have to help care for their parents.

According to a CNBC article title Tips on Caring for Aging Parents, the baby boomer generation is often referred to as the sandwich generation – because this group is right in the middle of raising their own children while providing care for their aging parents as well.  The article has information and statistics on home care, “The number of people age 65 and older will more than double between 2010 and 2050 to 88.5 million or 20% of the population; likewise, those 85 and older will rise three-fold, to 19 million, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.”  The article also talks about how people underestimate the cost of assisted living facilities while overestimating the cost of non-medical in-home care.

Post Stroke Care

When someone has a stroke it’s usually because the person had a blood clot in one of their arteries or blood vessels, which resulted in temporary suffocation of brain cells, destroying them.  Stroke is scary because it can occur at random at any time.  Although proper nutrition and a healthy lifestyle can reduce the risk, people who are over age 55, have high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, are obese,  use alcohol heavily, or smoke cigarettes are at greater risk.

Rehabilitation is essential to recovery.  Depending upon the part of your brain that was damaged by the stroke, memory, movement, or speech and language could be affected.  The National Stroke Association has a guide to help you in your decision of choosing the right therapy provider.  Check out the guide here.

Parkinson’s Care for Elderly, Senior, and Terminally Ill

Parkinson’s Disease affects the motor movements of individuals by breaking down nerve cells in the brain that produce dopamine, a chemical essential to sending signals to parts of your brain responsible for movement.  It can be difficult caring for an Elderly or Senior loved one with the disease, let alone accepting the fact that they have Parkinson’s.  Studies have shown that exercise and good nutrition habits are key to delaying the effects of the progressive disease.  Here’s an article on Hub Pages that offers some nutritional information such as foods to consume, foods to avoid, vitamins to take, and more.

After Surgery Care & Caregiver Service in Covina

There are many questions that one may have after going through a surgical procedure.  Pain questions are common, “When can I start doing something?” questions are common, and incision care questions are common.  The most important thing you can do is relax while your body heals itself and have someone who is able to assist you in your home, whether that be preparing meals, helping you change your gauze, or other general personal care and household duties.
