Work, travel, and housework are difficult tasks for many locals in Karachi. Especially in Karachi, (the business hub of Pakistan), we are busy improving our standard of living. In this struggle, man forgets that he has to go through different stages of life. Now may God has mercy on all of us but sometimes our loved ones fall into a bad situation, and they need proper attention and care. Critical patients need immediate medical attention, and a moment of carelessness can cause great distress to both the patient and the family.
When do you need long-term care?
When a loved one needs long-term care, it is recommended to be provided at home. The patient is happier at home and will recover without the risk of hospital-acquired infection. It is financially convenient for the family and getting such care can be at least 60% cheaper than a hospital.
“Looking for compassionate Caregiver/AYA services in Karachi?”
Don’t know, who is a Caregiver?
“Caregiver” refers to one who takes care of another person. There are different types of caregivers that provide specific care, such as family caregivers and respite carers. Caregivers can relieve burdens and help those in need. They can help for a long time or a short time, but their care is always important.
Caregiver vs. Nurse
Nurses are licensed to perform skilled care (tube feeding, regular injections, IV therapy, medication management, etc.). So, if your loved one needs skilled care, you will likely need a nurse.
Nurses are usually at home only a few hours a week. They are usually in charge of implementing specific instructions prescribed by the doctor. They also use assessment diagnosis skills to help monitor patient development as they recover from serious illness or injury.
On the other hand, caregivers are there to help with day-to-day life activities as well as to provide companionship for their clients. They build close relationships with their carers as they help with the daily needs that a senior may no longer be able to work on his own. Whether it is bathing, or buying a grocery, or even cooking, the caregiver can help fill the gap for elderly people who otherwise cannot live on their own. Caregiver/Aya services for your loved ones will depend on their needs and unique situation. A senior may need a nurse and caregiver or just one to come and help him.
