Senior Care Center Helps Families Find the Best Senior Care for Their Loved Ones in Buena Park CA

Senior Care Center, a free online resource that helps families find the best senior care, has announced that they have expanded to Buena Park, California and neighboring areas. People who are interested can contact them and they will evaluate the needs of the family and their elderly loved one to ensure that the appropriate assisted living facility can be provided. More info regarding this can be obtained from their website.

“We all know what it’s like to watch our family members age and start to encounter challenges in performing their usual daily activities. We are here to give you a helping hand in finding the best care your loved one deserves,” says Casey Ryeback, a representative for Senior Care Center Buena Park. “We’re happy to announce that residents of Buena Park and its surrounding areas can now take advantage of our services. And at this point in time, we can even assist families in finding those facilities that offer COVID-19 vaccinations to provide you with peace of mind with the assurance that your elderly loved ones will be protected from the coronavirus.”

A senior care advisor will ask a number of questions about the elderly loved one to make sure that he or she will be provided with the right care in the assisted living community. These questions will focus on the elderly loved one’s medical history; medications and doses; dietary needs, allergies, and dietary restrictions; cultural and religious preferences; preferred location; and budget and financial needs.

Assisted living facilities help the elderly with the performance of their daily tasks, such as eating, walking, getting dressed, bathing and showering, personal hygiene, grooming, and using the bathroom, plus medical attention whenever needed. They may also offer various kinds of amenities, which may differ for each assisted living community. Common amenities include: laundry, dining service, housekeeping, emergency and security services, social programs and events, and personal care.

Meanwhile, certain elderly loved ones will require special care. For instance, there are seniors who are suffering from Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia. The appropriate facilities for them are known as memory care homes. They have been especially designed to take care of the needs of the elderly who has some type of dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease, dementia with Lewy bodies, vascular dementia, Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease, Pick’s disease, frontotemporal dementia, normal pressure hydrocephalus, mixed dementia, and Korsakoff syndrome. The common amenities for memory care homes will include therapy programs, medical assistance, and a structured environment.

For the elderly with health issues or those who are recovering from a serious illness or surgery and need 24-hour medical care assistance, nursing homes are appropriate for them. What distinguishes them from other senior care homes is that they have medical equipment, such as dialysis machines, oxygen tanks, and electronic beds to ensure that the proper medical care is provided for residents. Common amenities and services provided at nursing homes include: laundry, housekeeping, activities and social programs, personal care assistance, medication monitoring, daily meals, medical resources, 24/7 medical care, speech therapy, physical therapy, and occupational therapy.

For seniors who are active, desire to remain independent, don’t have health problems, and can do their daily routine tasks, there are independent living communities. Naturally, these facilities don’t provide 24/7 medical assistance or personal care. Depending on the specific community, a health center may be available but most health care services will have to be sourced from the outside. This is why the senior care advisors will carefully evaluate the specific needs of the elderly loved one. Independent living alternatives are obviously less expensive but they are only for the healthy and able-bodied seniors. Those who require personal assistance and/or medical care may be better served by the nursing homes, memory care homes, and other similar assisted living facilities.
