In Home Care in Carmichael

Falls are a significant concern for seniors, both physically and emotionally. They can be especially risky for those aging at home. Thankfully, in home care from Visiting Angels^® Sacramento is available to seniors in Carmichael, CA, and the surrounding areas.

Our caregivers help prevent slips and falls in the home by assisting with everyday tasks and general mobility. And we’ll customize our services to your specific needs and schedule, ensuring you always have the support you need without paying for “extras.” 

The Physical & Emotional Impact of Falls

When discussing fall risks, physical injury is the first that comes to mind. Falls can cause multiple injuries, from bruises, scrapes, and pain to head trauma and bone fractures. Recovery from fractures, especially hip fractures, is slow, often requires transitional care, and can have a tremendous impact on quality of life. 

The emotional impact of falls is also significant. After a fall, many seniors are fearful of falling again. They often change the way they walk or carry themselves, contributing to falls instead of preventing them. Cutting back on physical and social activities is also common. The result for many seniors is depression, anxiety, and self-isolation. 

At Visiting Angels Sacramento, we believe fall prevention is crucial for seniors that enjoy living at home and being independent. It’s an integral part of many of our in home care services we offer in the Carmichael area, including:

• Assistance with toileting, dressing, bathing, and grooming.
• Light housekeeping and meal preparation
• Transportation to appointments and activities
• Running errands and grocery shopping
• A steady hand while walking, using stairs, and getting out of bed
• Wandering prevention 
• Alzheimer’s and dementia care

Additional services and programs, including respite care, palliative care, social care, and transitional care, are also available. Equally important, our caregivers are here to lend a helping hand at any hour of the day for as long as needed.
