Select Home Care, a non medical home care agency, announced this week that they are rapidly extending their at home care services across the Western United States to help solve a growing epidemic within the healthcare industry.
In a press conference this past Friday, a company representative told reporters that their goal is to alleviate the stress on overcrowded hospitals and nursing homes in areas like Westlake Village, California while drastically increasing patient care levels and recovery times. They stated that this will be a crucial part of reducing the nation’s healthcare costs for the elderly as the population over the age of 65 is set to rise dramatically over the coming decades.
A Select Home Care representative explained why this crucial service is so desperately needed nationwide -
“Far too many injured and elderly people end up in nursing homes or hospitals simply because their family cannot care for their everyday needs,” said a company spokesman on Friday. “But when this happens, the patient’s quality of life will sharply decline and other medical issues often follow.”
The reason why temporary or permanent in home health care works so much better for patients is two-fold. First, the ability to stay within a familiar environment keeps their spirits high, and the personalized attention from dedicated nurses and aides also helps lift spirits and speed up recovery times. The Select Home Care representative stated that in many cases, the patient and care provider will quickly become life-long friends.
Select Home Care also suggested a variety of other in-home care solutions like meal preparation, bathing and hygiene care, night supervision or even light cleaning and shopping. They have found that in many cases a trained professional is not necessary to keep their patients fully independent - they simply need a friend that can drive to the grocery store or help with other small errands.
“One of our most popular services is companionship care,” added the company spokesman, “because that loving, nurturing bond between patient and professional makes all the difference in the world. Patients recover faster, have a better outlook and even resume old activities, just because they have someone there to encourage them to succeed.”
Select Home Care offers services in Colorado, Southern California, Nevada, Oregon, Texas and Utah, and now Westlake Village, California; although they are happy to help potential customers find excellent in home health care nationwide. They can even assist in home care for Alzheimer’s or Dementia, all while working with major insurance providers to keep costs to the family minimal. With the United States currently having the highest number of citizens over the age of 65 in its history, these solutions to reduce healthcare costs and increase positive results of care for seniors are more crucial than ever.
