Summary: Mrs. Singh (w/o patient) contacted us “Medical Care Support at Home” team to arrange a specialized home-based caretaker for her husband. The patient is suffering from a partial body paralysis problem due to which the patient is dependent for his normal life routines. This case study evaluates the implementation and impact of the professional home care via the general duty attendant provided to manage his condition and improve his quality of life.
Mrs. Sharma’s daughter lives in Sector 78, Noida. She contacted us for home healthcare support. Her mother needs care in a 24 hour shift. Her mother, Mrs. Sharma (who is the patient in this case), underwent a small knee replacement procedure. Post the surgery, the doctor suggested the patient keep partial movement with the help of proper assistance. This is when she needs a trained caregiver or general duty attendant who can look after her.
We provided a trained female attendant to Mrs. Sharma for her care support (single attendant support). The attendant took up the responsibilities and helped Mrs. Sharma with:
- movements whether it be to get up and sit down on bed
- help Mrs. Sharma with her walk with the help of a walker
- take care of her daily bathing, toiletries and cleanliness needs
- take care of her medications and diet program
- offer a best companion ship to boost Mrs. Sharma moral and quick recovery
The recovery took around 2 – 3 months, and during this tenure, Mrs. Sharma and the caregiver formed a strong bond. Our staff manager continuously monitored the service and was in constant touch with Mrs. Sharma’s daughter and the caregiver to remove any possible roadblocks in the home care services. We received a huge round of applause from Mrs. Sharma and her family for the compassionate service provided. We were also glad to have this wonderful experience with Mrs. Sharma and the family during this journey.
