Every Senior Needs a Companion

When we think of seniors, the most common picture that comes to mind is one that has been constructed by popular media- that of a warm, wise and and doting person. While it's not entirely  false, this image ignores the fact that depression along with other issues are common in the senior community. When seniors are hit with depression , their health takes a drastic turn for the worst. 

We, at A-1 Home Care, are making an effort to combat this trend. By using our caregivers as companions, seniors in Studio City are able to have their physical and mental well being taken care of. Along with Companion Care, our 24 hour caregivers are able to administer all other facets of care, including Incontinent Care and Senior Care. With 2 years of previous experience, our clients know that they are put in safe, gentle and protecting hands.

24 Hour Home Care for Senior and Elderly in Studio City

A new "Choosing Wisely" campaign by the American Board of Internal Medicine Foundation has identified 100 procedures that should be avoided by the elderly. The list was culled from common treatments like surgeries and therapies commonly (and mistakenly) administered to seniors and elders. This includes:

1. Feeding tubes for people with dementia
2. Psychiatric medication for dementia and Alzheimer
3. Prescribing antibiotics for patients with no discomfort for UTI
4. Sleeping pills rather than gentler therapies for insomnia

There are alternatives to all items on this list. For example, it is suggested that patients with Alzheimer be fed by hand rather than a feeding tube, which exacerbates bed sores and irritates the throat. A-1 Home Care can arrange for a dedicated 24 Hour Senior Caregiver to stay with mom or dad during the day. We provide caregiving services in in  Studio City, Sherman Oaks, Burbank, Los Angeles, West Hollywood, North Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Santa Monica, La Canada, Flintridge, Glendale, San Fernando or elsewhere in Los Angeles County.
