The experience of having a stroke is incredibly difficult. However, after a stroke has occurred, finding your path forward can be even more complex. Your discharge from the hospital is just the first in a number of steps. Deciding where to turn could make all the difference in your stroke recovery.
Enlisting the Help of Home Healthcare Services
The days just after a stroke will slowly begin to reveal the number of long term problems ahead. These could include cognitive problems, challenges communicating, physical difficulties and emotional issues like depression. Our caregivers can make much of this easier.
The home health aides at David York Agency can help with day to day caregiving including bathing, grooming, dressing, meal preparation and feeding. Even light housekeeping and laundry can be added to the list. Activities of daily living are difficult after a stroke and our aides can make things much easier.
Our registered nurses can help individuals follow a physician’s care plan. They can ensure medication is properly dispensed and the right therapies are carried out correctly to help with the therapeutic process.
No matter what level of service you need, we’re available twenty-four hours per day, seven days per week. Sometimes private medical insurance or Medicare can cover the cost of the services depending on the physician’s orders. Often long term care insurance will pay for a home health aide when the patient is unable to perform activities of daily living.
David York Agency can furnish a home health aide for you in that circumstance and we are also able to service Medicaid patients. Our services make all the difference when you are staying in your home, surrounded by comfort and compassionate care. While nursing homes and rehab facilities can help, they never really feel like home.
