MAS promises a well trained and compassionate staff to provide quality home health care New Hampshire caregivers and patients will be comfortable working with.

We work hard to provide the best care possible to clients of a wide range of backgrounds and health care needs. Our services range from companionship and picking up prescriptions to hospice support and recuperative care. An example of in which home care can really lend some necessary support is following a stroke.

Nearly 800,000 Americans of varying ages experience a stroke every year. The rising rate of obesity, diabetes and high blood pressure, combined with an aging baby boomer population could potentially mean more cases in the future. Stroke victim survivors can be left with physical and cognitive impairment, making daily life more difficult than it used to be. Those that are lucky and have no long-term side effects have much to be thankful for. Several factors can aid in increasing the likelihood of going on to regain independence. The level of after stroke care is one of them.

While some patients go into a nursing or rehabilitation facility, others return home. Not only is returning home more cost-effective, but it is also the preferred place to recover by stroke victims. Studies show that comforting, familiar environments promote the healing process. Just because they are home does not mean they do not need support though. Their home care needs could be medically or non-medically related. While some choose to have rehabilitation specialists come into the home for things like physical therapy or speech-language therapy, others may require an in-home caregiver to drive them to rehab related appointments in an outside facility. Other services that can be provided are:

• Assistance with personal care
• Housekeeping
• Meal preparation
• Companionship
• Family respite care
• Medication management

With the right care, tailored to the client’s needs, their recovery can be successful and help them lead a long fulfilling life. Contact MAS Home Care today!
