In-Home Specialized Heart Disease Care & Assistance
As we age, our heart and blood vessels begin to harden. Even those who have lived a relatively healthy lifestyle may begin to see signs of heart disease as they get older.
In fact, heart disease is one of the most frequently occurring conditions in seniors, which is why heart disease care is so essential for many of our clients.
If you’ve been working as an unpaid caregiver for your loved one, without any training you may not be able to provide them the level of specialized care they need.
We know you want to be able to enjoy the time that you’re spending with your loved one; instead of constantly focusing your time on their health and wellness.
Qualicare can help. Our helpful caregivers can offer everything from heart disease medication management for seniors, to creating a personalized home cardiac rehabilitation program after a heart-related event.
This way, you can get back to making memories and truly savoring the time you get to spend with your loved one, while we keep a close eye on their daily health and wellness.
Our At-Home Heart Disease Care Services
When it comes to heart disease, knowing how to identify the signs of a worsening condition and when to get help can make the difference between life and death.
The last thing that you want to happen is for your loved one to start experiencing a severe heart-related event and not know what to do, because you didn’t have the training to see the signs ahead of a crisis situation.
Taking a proactive approach to heart disease management, combined with Qualicare’s heart disease home care services means that our skilled caregivers are constantly monitoring your loved one’s condition and comfort.
When things begin to change, our caregivers have the skills to identify an issue right away, so that your loved one can immediately get the help they need.
Not only does this help save lives, you can rest assured that your loved one is always in good hands, even when you can’t be around. And with our beneficial proactive home cardiac care services, they’ll have the tools they need to stay healthy and happy at home for longer.
Benefits of In-Home Care for Heart Disease
As important as proactive planning and monitoring is for home cardiac care, it can’t be understated how valuable home cardiac rehab is for clients that have experienced some type of cardiac event or have ongoing severe symptoms.
Heart issues can leave your loved one feeling absolutely drained. And in addition to chronic fatigue, they may be experiencing a major decline in their strength and mobility. This can lead to dangerous situations around the house. Activities like showering or going to the washroom can become frustrating or even dangerous for seniors to manage alone.
Our compassionate caregivers will create a personalized home cardiac rehabilitation program for your loved one, based around the severity of their condition, their needs, and their ultimate rehabilitation goals.
Regular exercise can help return some strength and mobility, as well as help clients work towards better ongoing heart health. And with senior heart disease medication management services, you can enjoy the peace of mind that they’ll never forget to take their important medications throughout the day.
Qualicare’s 360-degree heart disease management takes all these factors into account, including building a plan of action for your loved one that maximizes their health and longevity, so they can continue living a long, happy life, even after they’ve had serious heart problems.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Where Can Qualicare Clients Access Heart Disease Home Care Management?
Our caregivers can provide home cardiac care and rehab for clients living at home, in nursing facilities, hospitals, or within retirement communities.
What if Clients Don’t Want Heart Disease Home Care Services?
We understand that heart disease can make seniors feel frail or weak, which in turn, can have a negative impact on their mental health.
Our compassionate caregivers are prepared to create a heart disease care plan based on respect, patience, and communication. We’ll talk with your loved one to help them make sense of their condition, so they can see the positives ahead that can come from hard work and a healthy lifestyle.
What if a Client Experiences a Cardiac Event at Home?
Qualicare’s caregivers are skilled and well-trained, but they aren’t doctors.
In the event that a client is showing signs of a cardiac event at home, our caregivers will call for emergency services, so that your loved one gets the best possible care as quickly as possible.
What if a Client Won’t Take Their Heart Medication?
Senior heart disease medication management is a crucial facet of heart disease care, so when a client doesn’t want to take their medication, our caregivers will start by talking to them about the value of these medications and how they impact their overall quality of life.
In the event that this doesn’t change the client’s opinion, the caregiver will work with family members to find a solution that doesn’t sacrifice the client’s independence or dignity.
