Skilled Nurses To Put Your Mind At Ease
We know how hard coping with Alzheimer’s can be for both sufferers and caregivers. As this disease develops, it may become increasingly difficult to care for your loved one at home. There are multiple reasons why moving your family member into a caring community staffed with skilled nurses is an excellent choice.
- A team of nurses can provide calm, constant, consistent care as needed, 24/7.
- Experienced nurses know how to meet patients’ needs, both physically and emotionally.
- Nurses can expertly handle disruptive or violent behaviors, which sometimes occur in Alzheimer’s patients.
- Skilled nurses can identify medical issues apart from Alzheimer’s as they arise.
- Nurses can provide emergency care if needed.
Constant Care
You need to sleep, work, and take care of yourself, which is increasingly difficult to do as your loved one’s disease progresses. When the time comes to seek memory care or assisted living, you can rest easy, knowing that skilled nurses are providing around the clock care to your loved one.
Meeting Their Changing Needs
The changes your loved one undergoes as Alzheimer’s disease progresses can be frightening. We understand that it can be hard for an untrained person to cope with these evolving physical needs, not to mention emotional ones. Just when you feel you have a handle on things or a routine going, something changes.
Nurses who specialize in Alzheimer’s patient care have the knowledge and skills to help seniors through these changes.
Handling Disruptive Behavior
Coping with an angry, aggressive parent, sibling, or other senior family member can also be a frightening and occasionally dangerous experience. Alzheimer’s nurses know how to work with your loved one in a patient, compassionate, caring way. They are trained in techniques to diffuse volatile situations and help positively redirect emotions.
Identifying Other Medical Issues
Alzheimer’s patients are especially susceptible to urinary tract infections, falls, depression, dehydration, pneumonia, and other ailments. Nurses can spot these problems early so that your loved one can be treated promptly.
Emergency Care
If your loved one with Alzheimer’s suffers a medical emergency at home, you may not know what to do. Precious time can be lost as you wait for help to arrive. Skilled nurses in senior assisted living and memory care communities like PeachTree Place Assisted Living can provide emergency assistance as soon as a problem is discovered and until a doctor can be seen.
