24 Care for Seniors

24-hour home care is not usually the solution that comes to mind when you realize that you or your elderly loved one need around the clock care. For this reason, many in this type of position end up going ahead with a long term care facility. This type of choice may work well in some cases, but for those who are unwilling to give up the comfort and familiarity of home, what can be done? 24-hour care offers all of the assistance and reliability of a long term care facility, while keeping you or your loved one safe in the comfort of your own home, offering its own considerable benefit since the quality of care received is just as good as in a nursing or old age home.

But why does one need 24-hour senior care? Well, for one, many elderly people suffer from sleeplessness and might need company or assistance when they’re unable to sleep. When they do get sleep, it gets interrupted frequently because they might need help going to the restroom or help getting themselves a glass of water. On several occasions, we’ve tended to sleepwalking patients who could injure or seriously maim themselves if left unchecked and unassisted. Some patients also frequently have health issues flare up during the dead of the night, which can be cared for only if there’s around the clock care right there in the home.
