The fact that discharge from the hospital starts the minute our loved one is admitted is a scary thought. That means that too often our loved one is being discharged when it is still overwhelming for the caretaker at home to manage the care needed. That's where ALMA Healthcare Services can help. We provide skilled nursing, symptom management and case management. We are not only here to help with the hands on care that requires skilled nursing but are also here to assist with the communication between the doctors and the family. One aspect of maintaining a loved ones safety is understanding their need for care and making sure all healthcare providers are on the same page. We assist with coordinating care among the healthcare team and family as well as helping the family and caretaker understand not only the medical language but also interpreting tests and rationale for interventions. We also will go to doctor appointments if needed. We appreciate how overwhelming being the caretaker can be and we are here to help alleviate that stress so that you can focus on what is most important, your loved one. If you have a loved one at home that requires care or if you need assistance with managing their care we would love the opportunity to further discuss how we can help you.
