Here is how BrightStar Care helps keep seniors safe at home
Becky Torrez, owner BrightStar Care of Las Vegas, knows her home health care team can help save lives. “Our extensive team of RN’s, led by Darcy Tumminello, our DON, are available to help assess and monitor the health of our clients on an on-going basis and react immediately to any change of condition,” says Torrez.
Staying home with a home health aide to avoid developing an acquired infection makes sense for some older people because the elderly are particularly vulnerable, especially when recovering from an illness or injury. We provide care to patients in their homes and help keep them safe with RN oversight for all clients.
Our safety standards and practices have received the Gold Seal of Approval from the Joint Commission. The Joint Commission is the nation’s oldest and largest standards-setting and accrediting body in health care and has rigorous standards that go above and beyond state requirements. This accreditation is recognized nationwide as a symbol of quality that reflects an organization’s commitment to meeting superior performance standards and puts our Las Vegas BrightStar Care Team within the elite group of less than 10% of in-home health care agencies that have received this accreditation.
If you need to travel and leave an older relative behind, please contact us first. We can help ensure your parent or loved one is cared for in your absence. We provide safety checks and all client care is overseen by our Director of Nursing, Darcy Tumminello, RN, BSN. We can also help with back-up care if your travel is delayed, so you know your loved ones will be safe while you are gone.
Help with Meal Preparation: An in-home caregiver provides balanced, nutritious meals every day and they can keep your loved one company while they eat. They are also prepared to meet any dietary restrictions and food safety guidelines.
Help Errand-Running: An in-home caregiver can run errands for your loved one helping to make sure they have the supplies they need.
If you or your loved one struggles to keep up with home errands please call us. Our caregivers provide help around the home including 24/7 to hourly Home Health Care. Our team helps with laundry, errands and light housework, including companionship, personal care, skilled nursing, and transportation. We proudly serve Las Vegas areas including The Lakes Summerlin, North Las Vegas, Southwest Las Vegas, Spring Valley, Spanish Trails, and Spanish Hills areas.
