Steps to a Healthier Family

As you observe changes in a loved one, there are a few things that you can do to help them and ultimately your family as a whole:

 

  1. Download a copy of our Home Safety Checklist. By going through these steps, you can significantly reduce any harm that may come to a family member as you decide on your approach to care.
  2. Download a copy of our Fall Prevention Guide.
  3. Download a copy of our Needs Assessment Worksheet. It will help you define your situation and the kinds of services your family may need.
  4. Arrange for a family meeting to discuss your care options. Be sure to include the wishes of the loved one who needs care in the discussion. Use your answers from the Needs Assessment Worksheet as a guide.
  5. If there's a noticeable decline in thinking and reasoning in a loved one, schedule a doctor's appointment and ask the physician to test for cognitive function.
  6. If you decide on a path of care, ask Right at Home for a Custom Care Plan specifically based on your loved one's physical needs, cognitive needs and goals.
