Download or read book Careers in Home Healthcare written by and published by . This book was released on 2020-04-24 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: HOME HEALTH AIDES HELP PEOPLE who are unable to care for themselves or do the day-to-day tasks of life, such as cooking, cleaning, dressing, and bathing. They are also trained to perform basic medical services, such as checking vital signs, changing bandages, and administering medications. Precise responsibilities will vary depending on the client's needs. Some home health aides provide the same general services to all kinds of clients, while others specialize in certain types of people like the elderly, children, or mentally ill.Home healthcare can be short or long term. Short-term care usually follows a hospitalization and only lasts until the patient recovers from an injury or illness. Long-term care typically involves someone with a disability, chronic illness, or cognitive impairment. Home health aides usually work in individuals' own homes. However, they do work in other settings, such as group homes and day services programs.Home healthcare is one of the most rapidly growing areas of the healthcare industry. In fact, home health aides enjoy exceptional job security and one of the fastest-growing careers in the US. today. Industry experts project a remarkable job growth rate of over 35 percent during the next decade, which is much faster than the average for all occupations.There are numerous reasons for the growth in demand for home healthcare services, but it is mostly due to the aging population. Home healthcare has become a popular choice for baby boomers and the elderly because it is a cost-effective alternative to hospital admissions and long-term care in nursing homes and other care facilities. An estimated 88 million people will be over the age of 65 by the year 2050. That means home health aides will be more in demand than ever. There should not be a shortage of jobs for many years to come, making it an ideal career choice for people wanting a career in the healthcare industry without having to invest the time and money necessary for a college education.One of the main attractions of this career is that there are almost no education requirements. Some positions do not even require a high school diploma. Newcomers are often trained on the job by nurses and other medical professionals. Some jobs do require candidates to get some formal training and pass a standardized test. These are typically in certified home health or hospice agencies that receive funding from Medicare. The training can usually be completed within a few months. There are also voluntary certifications available for those who want to demonstrate their competency and commitment to prospective employers.Most home health aides choose this career because they have a strong desire to help people. It is not the highest paying job in the healthcare industry. The median annual income is just over $25,000 a year, but it has a lot going for it in other ways. The work environment, which is mostly people's homes, is typically peaceful and pleasant. There is flexibility, too. There are part-time and full-time jobs, and home health aides can choose how much they want to work and when. Students, new parents, or semi-retired workers can choose any shift, day or night, that is most convenient for their lifestyle. You can also choose what kind of clients you want or what neighborhood you want to work in. This is especially important since you will be driving to clients and probably will not want to spend too much time just getting to work. Home healthcare is not for everybody, but for those seeking a career with meaningful work that enhances people's quality of life, it is worth a look.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, an award-winning journalist tells the story of people devising innovative ways to live as they approach retirement, options that ensure they are surrounded by a circle of friends, family, and neighbors. Based on visits and interviews at many communities around the country, Beth Baker weaves a rich tapestry of grassroots alternatives, some of them surprisingly affordable: • a mobile home cooperative in small-town Oregon • a senior artists colony in Los Angeles • neighbors helping neighbors in "Villages" or "naturally occurring retirement communities" • intentional cohousing communities • best friends moving in together • multigenerational families that balance togetherness and privacy • niche communities including such diverse groups as retired postal workers, gays and lesbians, and Zen Buddhists Drawing on new research showing the importance of social support to healthy aging and the risks associated with loneliness and isolation, the author encourages the reader to plan for a future with strong connections. Baker explores whether individuals in declining health can really stay rooted in their communities through the end of life and concludes by examining the challenge of expanding the home-care workforce and the potential of new technologies like webcams and assistive robots. This book is the recipient of the annual Norman L. and Roselea J. Goldberg Prize for the best project in the area of medicine.

Download or read book When the Time Comes written by Paula Span and published by Grand Central Life & Style. This book was released on 2009-06-10 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What will you do when you get the call that a loved one has had a heart attack or a stroke? Or when you realize that a family member is too frail to live alone, but too healthy for a nursing home? Journalist Paula Span shares the resonant narratives of several families who faced these questions. Each family contemplates the alternatives in elder care (from assisted living to multigenerational living to home care, nursing care, and at the end, hospice care) and chooses the right path for its needs. Span writes about the families' emotional challenges, their practical discoveries, and the good news that some of them find a situation that has worked for them and their loved ones. And many find joy in the duty of caring for an older loved one. There are 45 million Americans caring for family members currently, and as the 77 million boomers continue to age, this number will only go up. Paula Span's stories are revealing and informative. They give a sense of all the emotional and practical factors that go into the major decisions about caregiving, so that readers will be better able to figure out what to do when the time comes for them and their loved ones.

Download or read book Alzheimer s Medical Advisor written by Philip Sloane and published by Sunrise River Press. This book was released on 2017-07-17 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As we move through life many of us find ourselves needing to help a family member or friend with a medical condition. If the condition is temporary, our need to help is temporary. However, chronic conditions such as Alzheimer's and other dementias require longer-term, possibly ever-increasing assistance. Problems with thinking and memory lead to new, different, and often challenging behaviors. In addition, caring for someone with Alzheimer's often means helping them deal with other medical problems that are often difficult to recognize. This book is a resource for caregivers of people with Alzheimer's or dementia who are also beginning to experience non-memory-related medical conditions. It addresses 54 medical conditions that caregivers often must deal with when providing care. Each medical condition is addressed in an easy-to-follow, two-page guide that provides basic facts about the medical condition, signs that indicate a possible emergency, tips on providing relief in the home, other related issues to watch out for, and safety tips for the caregiver. Written by experts at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and Duke University, this book is based on the latest clinical knowledge and scientific research on Alzheimer's and the care of Alzheimer's and dementia patients. It includes basic facts about Alzheimer's disease and other dementias and practical guidance when conferring with doctors and nurses, when visiting hospitals, nursing homes, and assisted-living residences, and during the dying process. Also, an entire chapter is devoted to what caregivers need to do to take care of themselves while helping someone with Alzheimer's and related dementia. p.p1 {margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px; font: 12.0px Arial}
