When Is Home Care Support Needed?

October 24, 2020

Does Your Las Vegas Loved One Need Support?

Our Professional Las Vegas Care Team, led by a Registered Nurse Director of Nursing, provides expert, compassionate, and personal in-home care assessment to determine if your loved one needs home care support. Our mission is to go above and beyond to deliver A Higher Standard of Home Care and nothing less. We can help evaluate your needs.

Essential Questions to ask to help determine if you love one needs support:

  1. Will you be the only one providing care for your loved one?
  2. If you will have help caring for your loved one, does s/he have the names, addresses, and emergency phone numbers of the other caregivers (i.e., family, friends, neighbors, home care services, etc.)?
  3. Does your loved one ever leave home (i.e., to visit a senior center, for social reasons, to attend church, etc.)? If so, when?
  4. Do other family members live nearby? Even if they are not providing care, does your loved one spend time with them?
  5. Does your loved one belong to any social organization or faith-based groups? If so, does s/he have the names, addresses, and phone numbers of those friends and acquaintances?
  6. Does your loved one receive any assistance (i.e., financial, medical, personal, etc.)? If so, is it temporary or permanent?
These questions can help you consider what your loved ones needs are and if more assistance is needed.  A BrightStar Care assessment can will help you answer these questions and more.
