Descripción

At Best Care, we believe that providing quality home care extends beyond meeting physical needs. Quality care requires understanding and respecting the unique cultural background of each person we serve. What does it mean to be culturally competent as a caregiver? Let's reference The Health Policy Institute's definition: "The goal of culturally competent health care services is to provide the highest quality of care to every patient, regardless of race, ethnicity, cultural background, English proficiency, or literacy." *The content on this podcast is for informational or educational purposes only and does not substitute professional medical advice or consultations with healthcare professionals.

Activities for Dementia Patients at Home - Best Care

"Dementia" is a general term that refers to a decline in cognitive function severe enough to interfere with a person's daily life. It affects memory, thinking, and social abilities and is caused by various neurodegenerative conditions, with Alzheimer's disease at the top. Nearly 7 million Americans [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36918389/] over age 65 are living with dementia. Caring for a loved one with dementia is challenging because it requires constant attention and adaptability as the individual's cognitive and behavioral abilities decline, often leading to emotional strain and exhaustion for caregivers. The unpredictability of symptoms and the need for around-the-clock support can make it difficult to maintain a balance between caregiving responsibilities and personal well-being. *The content on this podcast is for informational or educational purposes only and does not substitute professional medical advice or consultations with healthcare professionals.
