Hypertension Stroke Care
Hypertension aka high blood pressure is a very common affliction for the elderly. It is often called a silent killer because you can have it for years without knowing it. In fact, about 50 million Americans have high blood pressure, but about 30 percent of them don't know it.
The best strategy for controlling and preventing high blood pressure is to begin with lifestyle changes. For the elderly this is often coupled with medication to reduce high blood pressure. Complications from medication can include inflamed and sore joints which reduce mobility.

"They are very attentive to my needs, and they get me to where I need to go. They do the things that need to be done well. They assist me with housekeeping, cooking, and things I can't do myself. They are really good at organizing transportation in early morning and finding a way around shortage of staff."

"Right at Home has just provided a good service. I haven't had any bad experiences. They do things that I can't do anymore. They vacuum for me, clean my bathroom, make my bed, and change my sheets. The caregiver knows what to do and I don't have to tell her what to do. The Right at Home caregiver is understanding and asks me what more she can do when she finishes a task."

"We visited this office, to do research for a family member. It was a great environment, we enjoyed it. We met Heather at the front desk, she was very kind and helpful towards my family member and I, we get the hunch that she is a great caregiver! She was able to provide us with plenty of brochures, and explained some of the details about this specific company's operations. The office staff at this location are superb."

"I have a veteran man who has dementia so I called the VA and they recommend Right at Home. I like that I can leave the house without worrying about my husband. It keeps my sanity because I can have a day off and it allows him to see another friendly face. The caregiver is pretty good, she is personable, has a good personality, and puts a lot of effort into what she does. She takes care of watching my husband so he doesn't wonder off and helps with preparing his meals. I love her compassion and she is considerate. She takes care of emotional needs. The communication with the office staff has been excellent, I can't think of anything they could do to improve."

"I researched three companies, and Right at Home was the only one that had reached out. I have already recommended them. They are caring, professional and responsive. They look after my husband and me. They come two afternoons a week. As soon as they, arrive I am able to leave the house without worrying about my husband. The caregiver looks out for my husband's best interest. She reports and communicates clearly. She doesn't like to sit idly. She sweeps, mops the floor, and cleans the house. She attended additional training to get more skills so she could help us. The scheduling person is really responsive. Anytime I call to make a change, they make it happen. We looked over Jerry's care plan and were able to meet his needs."

"They were recommended to me. I would tell someone that they do what they say they are going to do. The caregivers assist my mother with medication and food. They help with the daily stuff. I have never met them, but they seem likable and I like that the caregivers have humility towards my mother. I like that the caregiver does not talk down to my mother. They provide constant communication when my mother tries to change something. They get in touch with me right away."

"They're prompt, professional, and the quality of care is great. They've helped out by being there for us and for taking care of everything we need them to take care of. They do light housekeeping and stand-by assists to make sure Olivia isn't going to fall. They're here to support us. They're very easy to get a hold of. If they don't answer the phone when I call, they call right back. They're just great. They match the caregiver up with Olivia, personality-wise and everything. They know beforehand that the caregiver is going to work well with Olivia. I don't believe there's anything they could do to improve. They already go above and beyond."

"I’m writing to let you know how much my mom and dad like Rahma. They’ve really seem to have “connected” with one another. I was at their house yesterday and got to meet Rahma too, and I can see why they like her. Thank you for employing someone who’s so good with my folks. Seeing Rahma brought a big smile to my Mom's face at a very hard time. I’m grateful for the services you all provide, Thank you for that."
