Nursing Wellness Checks
About Our Nursing Wellness Checks
Nursing wellness checks are regular, typically weekly, visits by a professional nurse to monitor the health and well-being of an individual, often an older adult, who may not yet require full-time home care. These checks provide a comprehensive assessment of the individual’s health status, including vital signs, lung sounds, fluid retention, nutrition, hydration, personal hygiene, and the safety of their living environment. The service also includes medication management, addressing any questions, and ensuring open communication between the physician, family, and the patient. The goal is to provide peace of mind for both the individual and their family by ensuring ongoing professional oversight of their health and living conditions.
What risks do seniors face without nursing wellness checks?
If an older relative does not receive nursing wellness checks, several potential problems can arise:
Unnoticed Health Deterioration: Without regular monitoring, subtle changes in health, such as worsening of chronic conditions, dehydration, or malnutrition, may go unnoticed until they become severe.
Medication Mismanagement: Older adults often take multiple medications, and without professional oversight, there’s a risk of incorrect dosages, missed doses, or harmful drug interactions, which could lead to serious health complications.
Environmental Hazards: Unsafe living conditions, such as cluttered spaces, poor lighting, or lack of necessary adaptations (like grab bars in the bathroom), can increase the risk of falls and injuries, which might go unnoticed without regular checks.
Increased Family Stress: Family members might experience increased anxiety and stress due to the lack of professional oversight and worrying about their loved one’s well-being and safety.
What are the benefits of nursing wellness checks?
Nursing wellness checks can significantly help an older relative by:
Ensuring Regular Health Monitoring: These services provide continuous oversight of vital health indicators, ensuring that any emerging health issues are caught and addressed early, which can prevent hospitalizations and improve overall well-being.
Personalized Care: A professional nurse offers personalized care tailored to the specific needs of your relative, addressing any health concerns, managing medications, and ensuring a safe living environment.
Peace of Mind for Family: Knowing that a healthcare professional is regularly checking in on your loved one reduces the worry and stress that often accompanies caring for an older relative. This allows family members to focus on their own lives while ensuring their loved one is in good hands.
On-Demand Support: Having a nurse available for questions and concerns means that your relative has access to professional advice when needed, reducing the risk of emergencies and ensuring timely medical intervention when necessary.
