A Private Duty Nurse Can Work Miracles

By Lila Bryant


People may need assistance once they reach a certain age and this can be very expensive. A private duty nurse may be able to come into someone's home and take care of an individual for a few hours. It is always great to have these caretakers on hand when things become too hectic for family members.

Older people have been known to move in with their children once they reach a certain age. This happens quite often in countries such as Japan. These are people who really value their elders and do not wish to leave them alone at any point in time. Unfortunately senior people have a habit of taking unexpected falls since their coordination is not always correct. One older lady with a broken hip utilized these people for quite a long time.

She fell off a ladder while trying to put up flowers outside of her house. People have a bad habit of falling in their own homes and this has caused many insurance rates to rise. This fall caused major damage to her spine and therefore she had to use a wheelchair that her insurance company paid for.

This woman took the time to contact a local nursing service that was able to send a good person who was able to attend to difficult tasks. The younger woman who worked for this agency would arrive in the early morning to help the senior get out of bed and take a bath. Once the washing was completed the kindly servant would prepare a great breakfast for the older person. She made sure that the morning meal was very tasty and quite nutritious.

After eating a satisfactory meal the women relaxed for a short period of time before making their next plan of action. They decided that on sunny days the two of them would go for a serene walk around their local park. This walk usually took quite a bit of time since the older woman was in a wheelchair.

There was one area in this park that they both loved dearly and it provided a sitting area. The women gave food to all of the pigeons that stopped by to visit with them. It warmed their hearts to know that they were doing such a huge favor for some of God's majestic creatures.

On their way home they would stop by the local grocery store and pick up a few food items that would be prepared in a delicious dinner. It was fortunate that this particular provider worked a twelve hour shift which meant that she could be with the senior until her bedtime. They ate their meal in total peace before the younger lady helped this older person into bed.

Their friendship had just started and it seemed as though it would go on for a lifetime. In another part of the world a very cranky old man had to obtain assistance from a provider. This was an old man who did not like to have people waiting on him and he could be very stubborn at times. He was also a person with dementia. His family had become very tired of this situation.
