Private Duty Nurse For All Seasons

By Lila Bryant


People may need assistance once they reach a certain age and this can be very expensive. A private duty nurse may be able to come into someone's home and take care of an individual for a few hours. It is always great to have these caretakers on hand when things become too hectic for family members.

Older people have been known to move in with their children once they reach a certain age. This happens quite often in countries such as Japan. These are people who really value their elders and do not wish to leave them alone at any point in time. Unfortunately senior people have a habit of taking unexpected falls since their coordination is not always correct. One older lady with a broken hip utilized these people for quite a long time.

After her sudden fall she could not walk correctly anymore and getting dressed was a major problem. She felt great pain each and every time that she had to stand still. Her back was in great distress which made it very difficult for her to sit in peace.

Within a matter of days she made a telephone call to a nursing agency which provided caregivers to those older people who were in need. This made her housekeeping duties easier once this person was staying at the residence. During the daytime this loyal assistant helped to bathe the senior lady and then she made her a nice breakfast. All of the breakfast meals that they ate were very rewarding.

This elderly woman was very happy to have such a healthy meal and she thanked her caretaker over and over. Up next they would bundle themselves up on this brisk April afternoon and take a walk to the park. It was the perfect time of the year to smell the new flowers blooming.

There was one area in this park that they both loved dearly and it provided a sitting area. The women gave food to all of the pigeons that stopped by to visit with them. It warmed their hearts to know that they were doing such a huge favor for some of God's majestic creatures.

Before going back to the house these ladies made it part of their plan to stop by the grocery shop. They could pick all of the food items that they needed for a great meal. This caretaker knew that she was giving great services to this senior who was in need. The meal was delightful and was prepared in the correct manner. Afterwards the older woman was done for this night.

These two women became immediate friends and their relationship was more than just caretaker and patient. An older male was going through a similar situation and he had to have a provider work with him during most parts of the day. This senior male was very cranky and hated the fact that someone had to give him a sponge bath every night. This caregiver had to make sure that the senior man did not run away from home since he suffered from dementia and this was a major problem for the family.
