Minnesota Home Care Growth Leads to Increase in Neglect and Abuse Issues
Home Care Growth – nursing homes and home care companies in Minnesota are seeking growth. With a growing senior population and seniors living longer than they used to, it is very important that there are care options available that ensure they are well cared for when the time comes. Home care is not nursing home care and is often provided by caregivers with little or no nursing experience. It is important to carefully review your home care agreement and review the services being provided and make sure that you have qualified nursing assessments and oversight. There are advantages of Home Care including staying in a homelike environment, smaller facilities with fewer residents, usually a better staff to patient/resident ratio. The potential downside is that there are fewer regulations for the provider and potential situations where there may be a lack of qualified trained staff for emergencies and specialized care issues.
