The Importance Of Transitioning Home In Columbus, GA
After a hospital stay, whether for surgery or an emergency, seniors need a place to rest and get better. Comfort Keepers takes care of seniors at home after they have been in the hospital. This helps them make the change from hospital care to care at home.
When older people don't get the care they need after surgery, they often have to go back to the hospital. When they get home, they say to themselves, "I'll be fine; I can take care of myself." But it can be hard to get better after surgery without care at home. Comfort Keepers is working with hospitals to make sure that seniors don't have to go back to the hospital for care.
Some tasks of home care after a hospital stay are:
Making sure you stay hydrated all day
Making sure they get the right food
Taking medications as doctors and health care providers tell you to
Sometimes seniors are in denial that they may need extra care once they are released from the hospital. Accepting and encouraging that a loved one may need care at home after they get out of the hospital will help their recovery go more smoothly and comfortably. Ensure that you or a family member is in good hands while transitioning home with our well-trained and compassionate caregivers!
