what is elder care?

Elder care also referred to as senior care, is a special care service designed to meet the varied needs and requirements of senior citizen home care. Elder care is a vast field and includes varied services like assisted living, nursing care, adult day care, and home care. Although old age itself is no reason to consider Eldercare, it is the varied physical disabilities and diseases that lead a person to contemplate availing elder care services. A large number of senior citizens still live with their family and their care is jointly undertaken by family members. However, in today’s situation, there are cases when most family members work and are unable to give proper attention and care to their ailing seniors and as such seek reliable and efficient eldercare programs.

Eldercare is specialized care that is designed to meet the needs and requirements of senior citizens at various stages of life. It’s a broad term that encompasses everything from assisted living and nursing care to home care and hospice care. It is a comprehensive and unique preventive/therapeutic solution for the senior population of the country.

Portea brings to you a comprehensive healthcare solution for all aging needs. Our Care Plans are specially crafted in catering to individual healthcare needs. With a dedicated Health Manager assigned, who ensures all your healthcare needs are taken care of, be rest assured.

some of the common reasons people seek elder care include:

A) PHYSICAL DIFFICULTIES

Numerous health problems may arise as people age and they are not able to perform many of the daily activities they once could. Their body may become more rigid, more fragile, and less resilient. Physical impairments related to particular diseases can also come in. Sometimes elders don’t report a physical impairment, hence it is important to get a complete physical examination on a regular basis.

B) COGNITIVE DIFFICULTIES

With growing age, some cognitive problems can be expected. But severe cognitive problems can impair the ability of elders to live safely and independently. They can cause memory issues, difficulty in understanding or speaking language, difficulty regulating emotions, or difficulty in making judgments. Progressive and severe dementia can cause safety concerns and should be taken seriously.

C) EMOTIONAL PROBLEMS

Feeling of loneliness or unimportance, inability to do things that they once enjoyed, or fighting a long illness can cause elders to experience emotional problems. The elders may become irritable, socially awkward, or may even have suicidal thoughts. Close observation and support are needed in such cases.

The type of geriatric care needed depends on the health condition of the old person and the severity of the problem and the type of care needed. Most people don’t require full-time nurses, while there are a few who need a 24/7 caregiver owing to the severity of their problem.

patient stories – how sabita rathi found help in portea to provide world class care for her father?

I availed Portea Health Prime service for my father Mr. Jauhar in Bangalore. Dr Yamani Nawani was the first person who contacted me regarding what plan would be best suited for my father. Dr. Yamini is an extremely competent manager and physician. She described all Portea services to me in great detail. She also designed a special services plan that would best suit my father and spent a great deal of time and energy coordinating a plan for dad.  She was flexible and understanding about the needs of an elder Parkinson’s patient and I am beyond impressed with her work.  

She went out of her way to understand special physical therapy needs of Mr. Jauhar and made best recommendations for him. Dr Yamini made an excellent assessment of our current complex family situation and what the priorities were. Your company is lucky to have a physician of this calibre working with for your company 

 I would also like to give my feedback regarding my Portea Health manager Mereena Jose, who was assigned for my father’s case. She has been an excellent health manager. She is compassionate and has been extremely supportive to my father. Mereena has done an excellent job navigating my father’s needs in the context of a current complex family dynamics. She has regularly made calls and followed up with me and given me updates. I am extremely pleased with Portea services.

how to prepare for elderly care service at home

Before you pick any home care services for the elderly, there are a few important things you need to keep in mind as per your specific requirement. For instance, the type of care needed and the type of care available, the types of elderly health care services offered to provide overall care, and the services that can be modified to suit your need.

After having selected an appropriate geriatric care program, there are a few things that you need to make prior preparation for effective and smooth elder care at home

  • Keep all the prescriptions and medications of the elderly handy as the caregiver would ask for them.
  • Note down and provide a family member’s contact number in case of emergencies.
  • Note down the doctor’s name and contact numbers who have been overlooking the elderly healthcare services.
  • Provide the list of diet and nutritional needs as prescribed by the doctor so that the caregiver can plan meals accordingly.
  • Prepare a list of activities or exercises to be performed by the elderly as prescribed by the doctor, so that the caregiver is aware of it and would help the elderly in doing so.
  • Inform the caregiver of any special needs or concerns that needs to be taken care of by the caregiver.

Caring for the elderly can be extremely challenging if the caregiver is not able to strike a chord with the elderly. However, our caregivers are compassionate people and know how to establish a bond to provide proper care. And as much as physical care is needed, all that the elderly long for is someone to listen to them and communicate with them. Our caregivers are appropriately trained to give overall elder care at home that includes their physical and mental well being.
