Preserve Your Loved One’s Quality of Life
While in the Hospital
When your loved one faces an impending hospital stay, it can sometimes be a daunting experience. But what if there was someone who could help mitigate this anxiety? A private hospital sitter can be a beacon of comfort amidst unfamiliar surroundings.
Hospitals may lack the capacity to offer personalized attention to each patient. This hurdle is amplified for patients struggling with dementia, often leaving them feeling isolated and scared.
We can help. A compassionate caregiver can bring you the peace of mind you need. Start today by getting in touch with Horizon Nursing Services—we’re available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Why Hire a Hospital Sitter?
Navigating a hospital admission can be stressful for you, your loved one, and your family members.
Balancing work, family responsibilities, and the hospital stay can be taxing, but this is where we step in—our referred caregiver, known as a hospital sitter, can advocate for your loved one, bridging the communication between you and the hospital staff.
What Do Hospital Sitters Do?
Hospital sitters provide essential support by ensuring your loved one receives attentive care, companionship, and effective communication during their hospital stay. They can help with daily tasks that include:
- Assisting with personal care needs, such as bathing and grooming
- Providing medication reminders
- Offering companionship and social interaction
- Advocating for the patient’s needs with hospital staff
Hospital sitters are more than care providers, though. They’re a daily companion that is there to make each day comfortable for your loved one.
Our hospital sitter ensures your loved one is well-fed and comfortable during their hospital stay. They can combat loss of appetite due to medication side-effects, ensuring that meals aren’t missed.
Patient safety is a critical aspect of caregiving.
Our hospital sitter keeps your loved one safe from falls and other potential concerns, especially when they are weak or disoriented, by maintaining vigilance over IV placements and bed safety.
The presence of a hospital sitter could help improve a patient’s mood. Engaging them in conversation, reading to them, or involving them in craft and game activities can provide a much-needed distraction from pain and discomfort and support recovery.
Hospital sitters can be instrumental in getting immediate medical attention for your loved one when nurses are preoccupied. Acting as an advocate, they can assist your loved one when they need it the most.
