Osteoarthritis Care

Have you or any of your loved ones been diagnosed with arthritis or osteoarthritis? If so, you should know that, in most cases, people with osteoarthritis can lead full, active lives by properly managing the condition. In fact, osteoarthritis is one of the most frequent causes of physical disability among adults.

  • More than 20 million people in the United States have the disease.
  • By 2030, 20 percent of Americans—about 70 million people—will have passed their 65th birthday and will be at risk for osteoarthritis.
  • More than half of the population age 65 or older would show x-ray evidence of osteoarthritis in at least one joint.

Simple, daily tasks can aggravate the condition and lead to frustration, weariness and depression. Right at Home has years of experience working with those suffering from osteoarthritis and has developed special elderly care services to help return some independence and comfort.

By alleviating some of the more tiring and mobility-oriented tasks, people with osteoarthritis can return to a fairly normal lifestyle. Right at Home’s caregivers provide these valuable elder care services including:

  • Meal Preparation
  • Light Housekeeping
  • Errand Services
  • Grocery Shopping
  • Incidental Shopping
  • Laundry & Linen Washing
  • Clothes Shopping
  • Recreational Activities

Osteoarthritis Information and Resources

  • More than 22 million people in the U.S. and U.K. have some form of osteoarthritis.
  • More than half of the population over the age of 65 would show osteoarthritis in at least one joint.

"The caregiver was an amazing person. She cleaned, shopped and cared for me. She cleaned for me. She did what I needed at the time. The owner came with the caregiver at the first visit. She communicated well and was very pleasant."

"The caregiver does an excellent job and we are very pleased. It helps us because we can go out and do our work while someone stays here with our loved one. She is hard-working, caring, and knows what to do when she comes in, so we do not need to tell her what to do. She will clean, do the laundry, and help Maxyne exercise. She speaks to her very gently and lovingly. When our caregiver can't come, they will let us know. She is honest, compassionate, and loving."

"Everybody was professional and did what they were supposed to do. It was immeasurable. I am a completely disabled veteran and they would help me out with all of the housework, that was a big load off my back. They were all very hard workers who did anything that I asked. All of the ladies were fantastic, they all did anything that I asked of them to my satisfaction. They were some fantastic ladies, and that is saying something because I am not an easy person to be around and work for. They matched me up with people, and I ver had an argument with any of them."
