In certain circumstances, you or a loved one may find yourselves in need of 24-hour home care in Yakima. These may include transitional care in Yakima following a hospital discharge, stroke recovery, hip surgery, or similar medical procedure; hospice or end-of-life care; advanced dementia involving "flight risk," or any number of other reasons. In such situations, our highly skilled Angels form dedicated care teams consisting of two or three caregivers and a coordinating Care Manager, all working in unison to provide seamless care for you or your loved one each hour of every day.
24 Hour Care at Home with Shift Overlap
24 hour care at home typically involves shifts that overlap one another by 15 minutes or more to allow proper communication between one Angel and the next regarding the previous shift, including any changes in the client's physical, emotional, or cognitive condition; completion of designated Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) such as bathing/showering, dressing/grooming, toileting/incontinence care, meal planning and grocery re-supply, medication reminders, light housekeeping, errands/doctor appointments, companionship activities, etc.
24 Hour Senior Care in Yakima with Our Care Management System
Our industry-leading and HIPAA-compliant care management system allows each team member to easily review and update collective daily care notes, associated Care Plans, and perform real-time intra-team communications via their secure smart phones - all overseen by their dedicated Care Manager. This ensures 24 hour senior care in Yakima is continuously monitored and adjusted for the best care outcomes.
Our Exceptional Caregivers Providing 24 Hour Care for Seniors
All of our Angels are proven, professional, empathetic caregivers, the majority of which have been members of our Visiting Angels family for many years. The bar we set for becoming an Angel is high, and we only hire the very best caregivers in the markets we serve. We don't hire caregivers we wouldn't have care for our own parents, and we won't place our caregivers in homes we wouldn't place our own children. We take exceptional care of our Angels in order to ensure exceptional care for our clients. Our team is committed to providing 24 hour care for seniors with the highest standards.
Specialized 24-Hour Home Care in Yakima for Specific Conditions
Many of our Angels specialize in multiple conditions and diseases, including Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia, Parkinson's, stroke recovery, COPD, and many more. Each Angel is fully-licensed by the Washington State Department of Health (DOH) as either a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) or Home Care Aide (HCA). Visiting Angels Yakima is licensed by the DOH to provide in-home care, and we are fully insured and bonded. We are proud to provide 24-hour home care in Yakima to meet the unique needs of each senior.
Meet and Approve Your 24 Hour Care at Home Team
As with all of our Home Care services, you will have the opportunity to meet and approve the team prior to the start of services. Once the team has been approved, they remain dedicated to you or your loved one for as long as they are needed. Unlike some other Agencies, we never staff 24 hour care at home or any other type of care based on the daily or weekly availability across our entire caregiver staff, which results in frequently changing team members and the likelihood of new and unfamiliar faces at any given shift. The trust and bond between our Angels and their respective care recipients (and their families) is core to our mission of providing the very best Home Care services possible.
24 Hour Senior Care in Yakima for Peace of Mind
Should you or your loved one need continual in-home care without the requirement that a caregiver be alert and awake during evening (sleeping) hours, we also offer Live-In Home Care services, which allow the caregiver an eight-hour period for sleep in your home, without charging you for that period of time. This provides an excellent option for 24 hour senior care in Yakima that is both cost-effective and provides peace of mind. Families seeking additional support may also consider palliative home care, which emphasizes comfort, dignity, and quality of life for seniors needing specialized attention.
Case Study: 24-Hour Home Care in Yakima Gives Families Around-the-Clock Support
After a mother in Yakima experienced increasing mobility challenges and had several falls, a Yakima family realized she should no longer be left alone. For her to remain in her beloved home safely, she would need continuous care through the day and night.
A customized 24-hour home-care plan was developed by Visiting Angels to ensure caregivers were available around the clock, assisting with personal care, meal preparation, medication reminders, mobility, overnight support, and companionship. As a result of this continuous, one-on-one-care, the client was able to remain safely in the comfort of her home, and her family gained peace of mind knowing that someone was always there if she needed help.
