It’s easy to get caught up in the logistical side of moving. From moving with a pet to downsizing your home – there are a number of things to consider when moving to a senior living community. But perhaps the most important factor for seniors and their caregivers to consider is making sure that health care needs are addressed and medical records are organized after the move.
Research shows that there are gaps in medical care for seniors and their caregivers during transitions such as moving that can lead to unmet needs, adverse events, and low satisfaction with senior care. Fortunately, there are tips and strategies that seniors and their caregivers can follow to reduce the risk of these issues occurring. Here are three caregiver organization tips for keeping track of medical information for seniors.
Moving to a senior living community can help your loved one receive the care they need, while offering you the support and peace of mind that comes with knowing a caring and dedicated staff is available to provide services if necessary.
