The Initial Evaluation with Care Plan development is a great investment.
The Initial Evaluation will address areas such as:
- Current medical status/history
- Safety concerns related to fall prevention and independent functioning in the home
- Functional assessment to determine if assistance is required for bathing, dressing, meal preparation, managing appointments and other activities of daily living
- Medication management issues
- Cognitive function to determine if thinking or judgment is impaired and if treatment may be necessary
- Emotional, social and spiritual issues related to depression, isolation and other mental health concerns
- Nutritional needs
Having a good Care Plan in place can help avoid crisis, unnecessary hospitalizations and inappropriate placements.
The individualized Plan of Care might include recommendations such as:
- Assistive devices or home management tools to help ensure the care recipients safety
- Specialty consults to assess and address emotional and/or cognitive concerns
- Education and emotional support for the care recipient and family
- Home care or other services when appropriate
- Use of community services for respite, socialization and/or emergency response
- Communication with all doctors providing care to assure all medical issues have been addressed
