Why Seniors Need a Companion to the Doctor’s

why-seniors-need-a-companion-to-the-doctors

Most seniors find it difficult to do even the easiest of things like some light housekeeping. As caregivers, you also have the responsibility of going with them to their doctor’s appointments. Your presence is especially important.

  • You Can Help With Communication
    Seniors may be hard of hearing or are suffering from various medical conditions that make communication difficult. With your presence, you make the communication between patient and doctor more effective. For instance, when doctors see their patients from assisted living facilities, you often see them with a nurse or a caregiver. This helps doctors not to miss any important details.
  • It Makes Each Visit More Effective
    Doctors have very limited time. It’s always one patient to the next. So you’re being there will help each visit to be more effective by asking the right questions, listening to the answers, and for good advice like important medication reminders.
  • You Need to Make the First Contact
    If you’re working at homecare in Westmoreland or is involved with the care of a senior, you know you need to be able to make the call for an appointment or even for emergency medical calls to the doctor. As caregivers, you have the responsibility of sending out a clear message to the doctor on why you need to see them.

Every doctor’s appointment is important for seniors since they are more prone to developing diseases rapidly. Your presence is not just to help them get around but really to be the bridge of communication between them and the doctor.
