The choice as to where to put a patient who is recovering from an illness or injury has become a tug of war between two players: nursing home care on one end, and home health care (known also as in-home care) on the other.
Choosing between the two, however, appears to be a no-brainer.
Without batting an eyelash, we would exclaim, “Home care!” if pressed for an answer.
True enough, there are several compelling reasons why we choose home over an outside facility when the need for such service arises. While at that, we are not saying that nursing home care comes only as an afterthought. The truth is, an outside home care facility packs an equally impressive array of services designed to help patients recover faster.
In this discussion, however, let’s focus on two important considerations why we choose in-home care over the other.
There’s No Place Like Home
The phrase says it all. We could get anywhere around the world in no time these days, but at the end of the day, home is where we retreat, take comfort and energize for the next wave of activities. It’s our sanctuary. At Bright Home Health Care, the in-home care in Carrolton, Texas, we believe that recovery is quicker and thorough if the patients are placed in familiar surroundings and have access to their loved ones.
The Travails of Travel
Moving around the house already poses a big challenge for the sick or injured. How much more if they are uprooted from their home and transported to a place which may be alien to them? The challenge gets amplified several times over. Mobility is one concern. The risk of contracting more injuries while in transit is another, even if they are handled by the best caregivers there are. The chance to get more injuries is always there. Still another drawback is the added cost. Services for ambulance and non-emergency medical transportation are not free more often than not. Sometimes they come with a hefty price tag depending on the kind of vehicle and the added extras in the service, equipment and accessories.
Having that in mind, we, at Bright Home Health Care, prefer to bring our services right into your very own homes.
You may have some apprehensions that the brand of service of in-home care in Carrolton, Texas may not be at par with those rendered by home care centers because we don’t operate in our own place. The opposite is true. We may not only be comparable with them, we may even surpass them performance-wise because of the long list of services that we offer. Above all, our personnel are second to none in terms of qualification, knowledge, experience and attitude.
