Essential Home Health Care For Stroke Patients
home health care for stroke patients
Chicago Stroke Care Program
Stroke is a major health-care issue. Stroke damage to brain tissue can impair a patient’s memory, cognitive abilities, physical mobility, speech, and other abilities. However, there is life and hope after a stroke.
The severity of the stroke, as well as the other coexisting comorbidities, would determine the patient’s recovery path. To adjust to life after a stroke, they may need to unlearn and then relearn new skills.
Essential Home Health Care provides doctor-directed home care for stroke patients to help them recover faster.
After being discharged from the hospital, stroke patients’ recovery becomes more complicated. As they recover at home, they frequently miss the medical supervision and quick and easy access to a doctor. They also resume their regular lives, making them more vulnerable to mishaps.
The stroke care program at Essential Home Health Care is a collaborative approach that addresses the patients’ various needs and assists them in their recovery process.
Helping Hands
Depending on the dysfunctions to be regained, a stroke patient is frequently discharged with a complex care protocol. Following this care protocol necessitates the regular attention of a doctor who is familiar with the patient’s prognosis.
Essential Home Health Care provides a supportive care ecosystem led by a doctor and extends the treating specialist’s follow-up care. Our clinical network of trained medics and proximity centers ensures that the patient’s complex care needs are met in the comfort of their own home.
Rehabilitation Services
A patient’s rehabilitation usually begins in the hospital. The real challenge is continuing it at home after being discharged from the hospital.
To help stroke patients continue their recovery, we offer rehabilitative care at home. Our rehabilitative care program employs specialists such as physiotherapists, nutritionists, and speech therapists to work closely with the patient to get them back on their feet. We assist patients in relearn skills that are appropriate for their living environment.
Pain Management
Because of their reduced mobility, stroke patients frequently experience pain in various body parts. The intensity of this pain varies depending on the physical condition. However, intervention is required to improve the patient’s quality of life.
To provide pain relief, our empaneled pain management specialists collaborate with patients and their supportive care team. We measure the intensity of the pain on a numeric rating scale on a regular basis and titrate the pain treatment as needed.
Mental Health Support
Stroke frequently results in clinical depression and anxiety in patients. They are plagued by a sense of helplessness, which impedes their recovery. Caregiving stress and burnout have an impact on the emotional and mental health of family caregivers.
Our stroke care program offers counseling to stroke survivors and their families. Our counselors assist them in coping with the anxiety and dealing with the emotional upheaval so that they can recover more quickly.
The Essential Difference - Stroke Care Program Differentiators
Doctor Driven Care
Each stroke patient is assigned a dedicated care doctor who meets with them on a regular basis and monitors their recovery. We guarantee the availability of a doctor (both online and in person) during the patient’s time of need.
Continuity of Care
We allow the primary care physician to provide additional follow-up care. On the platform, we incorporate his care protocol and workflow. For the best results, the specialist can continue to monitor the patient’s recovery at home.
Supervised Clinical Intervention
Our team of medically trained professionals provides timely and skilled clinical interventions in the comfort of your own home. Our Care Doctors supervise the intervention procedures and ensure that the patient receives the necessary relief without causing further complications.
Support for Family Caregivers
We assist the patient’s family by sharing the burden of caregiving. Our team’s availability and presence allows family members to feel relief and regain some control over their lives.
