Services to Help Older Adults
You might think of VNS Health as in-home nursing care or rehab after a hospital visit, but we’re so much more! We offer several services and specialized programs that can help older adults stay safe in their homes. They’re customized to meet each person’s needs and can reassure family caregivers that their loved one is in good hands.
Home Health Aides
Certified home health aides provide personal care assistance, like help with bathing, grooming, and getting dressed. They can also help with moving safely in the home (getting out of bed, for example) and outdoors. And they can prepare meals, track vital signs, and give medication reminders.
Dementia Care at Home
Our Dementia Care at Home program supports people with memory loss and their loved ones. Our care plans are created to meet each person’s unique needs now and as their condition changes. Experts provide on-going support to family caregivers with advice and recommendations for managing care.
Fall Prevention Program
Falls among seniors can be dangerous. Our Fall Prevention Program helps older adults build strength and maintain balance. Physical therapists assess risk factors, recommend changes to improve home safety, and track progress.
Mental Health Care for Older Adults
Aging brings challenges that can affect mental health, but anxiety, depression, and isolation are often unnoticed or undiagnosed. VNS Health offers in-home support as well as outreach to connect older adults to community services.
