Juggling Medical Care with an already Full Plate

One of the most important parts of any care plan is the medical portion. Making sure that your loved one is receiving the medical care that they need is integral to ensuring that they remain healthy and happy for as long as possible. But, this can also be one of the hardest aspects to keep track of.

Appointments, prescriptions, physical therapies, safety, transportation… The list goes on and on. All of these things are hard enough to keep track for one person, but what happens when there’s more people involved in the care plan?

Things can get very muddled, very quickly. Forgotten prescriptions can be life threatening, missed appointments can be costly and tough to reschedule, missed therapies can set patients back in their progress and miscommunications can lead to misunderstandings and family tension.

That’s why we believe in making sure that we always have open lines of communication with our clients and their families.

We are willing to work with our clients to arrange medical care in a way that best suits their needs and preferences.

• If the family chooses, Midnight Sun Home Care can handle all of the medical needs of our client. We can schedule appointments, keep track of medications, help with transportation, monitor diets and assist with at home therapies. If this is the chosen course we keep track of everything in the client’s Care Plan so that it can be easily followed.
• Alternatively, we are happy to allow the family to handle this aspect privately. We are always happy to assist with any portion of the medical care if needed, we just ask that the request be made in advance so that we can ensure that the perfectly qualified care giver is available.
• Of course we are willing to do whatever combination of the above options that is requested. We are very flexible and always want to make sure that we are here to support or clients and their families in any way.

Our ultimate goal is to make sure that our clients are safe, healthy, and happy. We are here to support our clients and their families, assisting them in whatever way that they need.
