THE NURSE
THE NURSEA nurse is licensed to perform skilled medical care. If your loved one requires IV therapy, someone to administer prescriptions, regular injections, or other skilled care, it is a nurse you want on hand. Nurses also monitor the progress of the patient who might be recovering from illness or injury. Nurses typically provide these services in hospitals, senior living community, urgent care centers, memory care centers, and home health agencies. If your loved one needs medical care or suffers dementia, Alzheimer’s or other medical issues that need attention, a nurse, or assisted living residence with a nurse on staff might be the best care option.
THE CAREGIVER
THE CAREGIVERA family caregiver provides hands-on assistance to help with daily activities of living, and also provide companionship for their clients. Caregivers assist with the day to day needs of seniors, like personal care, help showering, using the bathroom, cooking meals, grocery shopping, or anything else your senior loved one might need.
