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.

"When I contacted Right at Home about a caregiver for my wife, I had no idea what to expect. Enter Jennifer. Jennifer immediately established a rapport with my wife, Teddy. She was not just a caregiver and companion; she became a family member. Jennifer has been a very caring and compassionate friend to Teddy, always ready to go that extra mile. The time has now come for Teddy to enter a structured care facility, but myself and our family, will always remember Jennifer for the wonderful and caring person that she is. May God bless you, Jennifer."

"Cindy and I couldn't be more grateful to Right at Home for the quality of service and the care and compassion demonstrated toward Mom. After a bit of adjustment with individual caregivers, Vicki was able to assemble an amazing team who gave Mom the dignity and compassion she deserved in her final years. We would recommend Right at Home to anyone seeking home care services. In fact, we have recommended Right at Home to friends and colleagues. We think you are all truly wonderful and we are extremely grateful to have had Right at Home as part of Mom's "circle of support."

"I like the friendliness and the fact that they can handle any of my problems. I've had a couple of strokes, but I wasn't in favor of having someone in my home. I have someone to keep me company. I had a caregiver clean the entire house and that has helped considerably. They do anything I need them to. I like that I can call them and know them on a personal basis. It makes it easier. They know my habits and that I need someone who has a vehicle and who can drive me. They are advised to that before they come. "

"I think they do a good job. They are always prompt, and I'm really pleased with it. It's been very good for me. They are great. They take me to the bathroom, talk to me, and are very good at what they do. They also feed me. They do everything I ask them to do. They are matched very well. I just get along with everyone."
