Determining the best overall care for a senior loved one can be overwhelming. You must assess the pros and cons of different care options and weigh relevant concerns such as personal preferences, financial considerations, health issues, etc. One of the benefits of In-home care for your loved one is allowing them to age in comfortable and familiar surroundings. We also offer customized care options and personalized care. Another benefit to In-home is it’s often less expensive than a nursing home or assisted living facility. As a family caregiver, your loved one’s well-being is a top priority. At Visiting Angels, our professional caregivers provide outstanding personal care services for older adults – and peace of mind for family members – that are difficult to match at older adult facilities. https://lnkd.in/gqVSxq5N

The standoff in North Carolina shows the failure of states across the country to adequately address the long-term-care needs of younger people with complex disabilities. Our healthcare system is in dire need of improvement. I am an advocate of post-acute care and what we been seeing much of over the last year is younger and younger people being referred to skilled nursing. While depending on the state, this may be the only option, however this young woman's story is a prime example of why we must do better! What are your thoughts?

One of the greatest fears among older adults is the loss independence that leads to the nursing home. As Dr. Robert Mirsky, Nymbl's CMO, highlights in our recent RISE webinar, the key to avoiding this fate lies in early intervention. “Injurious falls, loss of mobility, and stability are major precursors to a loss of independence," says Dr. Robert Mirsky "But by intervening early, we can significantly enhance the quality of life for older adults—allowing them to stay in their homes and communities, where they belong." At Nymbl, we believe in empowering older adults to live life on their terms, and our total population falls solution is a critical part of that mission. Let’s work together to ensure all older adults can enjoy their later years in the comfort of their own homes.
