Managing a Senior’s Resistance for Help

managing-a-seniors-resistance -for-help

As a home care agency in North Carolina, it’s a common scene to see elders who refuse any type of help, especially with the daily task despite restrictions brought by their health deficiency. We try to understand where the resistance is coming from and to meet our patients halfway here at Charlotte Senior Care.

In helping senior patients overcome their resistance to care, we start by addressing its origin because there might be areas where they are more stubborn in doing things their way. Because of several changes in their life, it becomes increasingly difficult for them to express their grief and frustration, which could result in them lashing out and avoiding people who reach out to them. Our senior care providers at our non-medical home care services are trained to communicate effectively and with compassion and patience. If the patient still refuses to talk, we execute our other options like planning activities for them and making sure they are involved with the programs of our home care in Lincolnton, North Carolina.

We ensure that our methods are not forceful, so we lay out alternatives for them to pick from because this also shows them that they still have control over their life choices. There are times when we tap the patients’ loved ones for them to feel safer and secure, and this eases them into a more comfortable mood.

Here at BarCARE Health Homecare Services LLC, the caregivers of our Charlotte Home Healthcare Agencies apply their professional skills to come up with different strategies for supporting and helping your loved ones.
