New Hampshire residents want to know that their loved ones are being well taken care of, which is why they look to home health care. It is a practical and convenient option that also provides compassionate individualized care, especially when given by the caregivers at MAS Home Care.

By choosing home health care New Hampshire residents are able to receive home care services such as:

• Safety supervision
• Personal care like bathing, dressing, and medication reminders
• Assistance with chores, shopping, or prescription pick up
• Help with mobility, such as moving about the house, and transportation, such as getting to doctors appointments
• In-home nurse visits (for lab draws and PT/INR)
• Alzheimer’s and dementia care

Home care provides many benefits that cannot be found elsewhere. Patients receive one-on-one care that is specific to their needs. When the caregiver is with them, they have his or her full attention as they are the only patient at that time. The caregiver knows the patient’s strengths, weaknesses and needs and can adjust care accordingly.

Another benefit is care is given at home. This seems like an obvious statement, but it means many things. It means that patients are able to maintain as much independence as possible and that family members are able to stay together. Patients experience less stress and anxiety and it has been shown that individuals heal more successfully and quickly at home. With advances in technology, patients receive quality care just as they would in a hospital or nursing home.

Over 70 percent of the elderly receive care from a family member or friend. Obviously there is a strong preference to stay at home, but this can also mean burnout for those primary caregivers. Home health care services can help. Professionals are able to come into your home to relieve them, provide additional support and information, and work together to provide the best care possible.
