In-Home Specialized Arthritis Care & Assistance
Waking up stiff and sore is something that we all have to face once in a while throughout our lives, but for seniors living with arthritis, this can become a frustrating part of daily life.
Not only does this make even the smallest tasks harder and more painful to accomplish, but the constant nagging pain and stiffness can take a huge toll on our mental health over time as well.
If you’ve been providing unpaid home care for arthritis services for your loved one, but are starting to feel overwhelmed managing their needs alone, you don’t have to worry anymore – Qualicare is here to help.
We have local expert arthritis home caregivers that are standing by and ready to provide your loved one with the specialized support they need. This way, they can take back control of their comfort, so they can get back to making the most of every day.
Our At-Home Arthritis Care Services
There are many different forms of arthritis that can affect almost any part of the human body, but most often, home care for rheumatoid arthritis is one of the most common forms we see in clients.
This form of arthritis is an autoimmune disease that usually doesn’t appear until middle age, so it’s not uncommon for seniors to begin experiencing the symptoms of this condition later in life.
Home care for rheumatoid arthritis can look very different from day to day, depending on the severity of the symptoms that a person is experiencing.
Joint pain, swelling, and tenderness are just some of the most common symptoms, but this disease can actually affect the eyes, skin, lungs, blood, and even the heart function of some people.
The best way to treat this condition is with early treatments, and that’s where Qualicare’s home assistance for seniors with arthritis comes in.
With the help of our compassionate caregivers, your loved one can get specialized home care for arthritis 24/7, which means they’ll always have the support they need to maintain their health and comfort, even when you can’t be around.
Benefits of In-Home Care for Arthritis
With regular, early treatments, the unpleasant symptoms of arthritis can often be controlled, or at least, kept at a level that doesn’t detract from a senior’s overall quality of life.
Not only will this help prevent joint and organ damage due to their illness, but it can reduce long-term complications caused by arthritis, improve day-to-day function, relieve symptoms (like inflammation), and increase your loved one’s wellness overall.
Controlling inflammation is a key part of this process, and our helpful arthritis home caregivers have the skills and experience to assist your loved one with managing this difficult portion of their condition.
Whether that’s through ensuring arthritis prescriptions are always taken on time, mild exercise to reduce stiffness and improve mobility, or other comfort-related treatments (i.e., hot water bottles, ice packs, soothing massage, etc.), we’re here to help as much or as little as you need.
With Qualicare in your corner, your loved one can take back control of their daily comfort, so they can get back to enjoying life at home. And you’ll have the peace of mind that your loved one always has the support they need, anytime day or night.
