Home Care Assistants Help Keep an Eye On AZ Seniors Isolated at Home

March 23, 2020

BrightStar Care supports the Phoenix / Tempe senior community to help keep seniors safe at home.  

For seniors who need companionship or health care assistance and do not want to leave home, BrightStar Care provides professionals overseen by a Registered Nurse to check in on you or your loved one. 

BrightStar Care of Phoenix / Tempe provides RN oversight for all client care, home safety assessments, and caregiving services. Owner, Todd McDonald explains that "In-home care is a solution for many situations that may arise. It can be used for both short and long-term circumstances. We know home care can relieve the stress and difficulties that may arise without it. Whether it's when caring for a child or an elderly loved one, sometimes we all need a little additional help." McDonald shared that recently their office received a letter from a family member who lives out of town. "The daughter of a client who we care for wrote that we are an extension of their family," said McDonald. Here is what the client letter said:

"I live out of town, so BrightStar is an extension of our family going into my mom's facility. They are very flexible and work with my family's needs. Sometimes, we need caregivers more often, and they're easy to work with. They communicate well with their employees." Lauren B.

If you are thinking about nursing home care, consider the option of in-home healthcare that allows your loved one to receive treatment and care within the comfort of her or his own home. 

With the full continuum of homecare available from newborn care and nanny services to companion care to skilled medical care for the elderly, there is a wide array of situations where in-home caregivers can ease everyday stressors.

Companionship – 

having someone you trust to spend time with is vital for happiness. With a capable and kind provider, your loved one will receive consistent companionship and loving care.

If you need a Nurse – 

Whether it's a broken ankle or an illness, sometimes a home nurse is necessary and will alleviate your worry. To help keep yourself or loved one, stay on track with nutrition, home safety, medications, and check-ups, an in-home nurse can be very beneficial.

When you are Sick – 

Sometimes people get sick and need temporary help. It can be a debilitating illness or a temporary illness like the flu; home care agencies can help provide qualified caregivers on a temporary or long-term basis. In case you need a little extra help, temporary in-home caregivers can provide relief and assistance in a comfortable place other than a hospital setting. 

If you are not feeling well, call for home help in:

  • Meal Preparation
  • Errand-Running
  • Light House Cleaning
  • And Laundry
