When Long-Term Care is the Best Option
When is the right time? That decision can be a hard one for not only you, but your loved one. It’s important to remember that the right skilled nursing facility can be an enriching and rewarding environment for your loved one and for you as their caregiver. Health and safety concerns are the main reason why someone may need to be admitted into long-term care:
-
A chronic illness that can’t be managed at home, leading to repeated hospitalizations
-
Frequent falls can have significant effects on a person or caregiver and quality of life
-
Impaired cognitive function, increased confusion, or memory issues
