Seniors often begin their retirement in independent or assisted living communities. But there are times when they may need a higher level of care. A fall may require a stint in rehab. Critical care needs can lead to a stay in hospice. Seniors may need more socialization time away from their caregivers and caregivers may need some down time from their constant duties. Adult day cares are ideal for short term respite care. In all these locations, it is important to create environments that provide comfort, security, and care.
Rehab center furnishings
A rehabilitation center for seniors provides care with an eye toward reducing pain from an injury or improving mobility and function. When seniors go into rehab the primary caregivers receive a period of respite as their loved one moves to a place better equipped to handle their level of care. In addition to the daily physical, occupational and speech therapies, the seniors should be able to retire to a room that’s as comfortable as their bedroom at home. If possible, the room should have lovely views. Furniture here should aid in rehabilitation. Bedsides and custom cabinetry and that provide easy access to personal belongings and recliners that are comfortable and easy to operate.
Furnishing Adult Day care for Respite care
Respite care provides short-term relief for primary caregivers and includes a few hours in an adult daycare or care for several days or weeks in a senior living community. While the caregiver may need a little break from the long-term care of their loved one, the loved one needs to feel loved and continually cared for, if only for a brief time, in the new environment. The surroundings should be home like and cheerful with furniture that sets the tone.
Furnishing Hospice Care
Hospice care is a special kind of health care that focuses on the quality of life for patients in the final stages of life and their families. Hospice provides comprehensive comfort in the form of medical, emotional, and spiritual care to the senior as well as support for the family. The hospice will provide a complete environment that envelopes the senior and family in warm memories of a beautiful life, including serene window views, sweet smells of baked cookies, inspirational musical interludes, soft lighting, comfortable furniture, and accommodations for family.
