For retirees with multiple health challenges, diabetes can be harder to manage effectively than most people realize. Poor control of blood pressure, glucose, and/or cholesterol is common, especially among patients over 65. Diabetes is serious. It doubles a person's mortality risk, so it needs to be managed effectively.
Our highly experienced senior care nurses engage patients and families in comprehensive education, training, and support programs. The programs are appropriate for patients with a new diagnosis related to their diabetes, patients with recently documented difficulty controlling certain measures, and situations where blood glucose or blood pressure levels begin fluctuating abnormally.

Accidental falls are a leading cause of injury for people over the age of 65. Retirees who experience accidental falls commonly downplay the seriousness of the event, often out of concern for having their independence curtailed in some fashion. This is the exact opposite of the correct strategy. Precise Home Health Care can deliver 100% Medicare funded training programs that will increase retirees' ability, activity, and safety while protecting their independence long-term.
Training and rehabilitation includes issues such as leg strength, range of motion, gait training, training with assistive devices, clothing choices, upper-body strength training to help with use of hand rails and assistive devices, and fall training to prevent injury when accidental falls do occur.
People who should receive Fall Injury Prevention services include those who have experienced an accidental fall in the past year, those with recently documented low foot clearance on gait, and those with a gait speed of one meter per second or less.

Heart failure can be one of the hardest conditions to manage at home. That's why almost a quarter of people discharged from the hospital after a heart failure exacerbation end up back in the hospital within the month. A patient's success with heart failure management depends not only on having great doctors but also on the ability of the patient and the patient's family to effectively implement a thorough management plan. That's where Precise Home Health Care comes in.
Research now clearly shows that in-home cardiac rehabilitation is comparable to cardiac rehabilitation in qualified centers. Our rehabilitation and management programs include safe exercise training, energy conservation techniques, home improvement planning, monitoring and assessment during periods of exacerbation, emergency planning, medication coordination, and much more.

Psychiatric home health is a specialty of Medicare certified home health that utilizes nurses with extensive experience in mental health. Complimenting normal psychiatric care delivery systems with the addition of in-home interventions has resulted in significant reduction in both hospitalization admission and recidivism rates. Precise nurses work with both the patient and the patient’s at-home caregivers to enhance education about important medications, coping strategies, disease recognition, and disease management. In the home environment, psychiatric nurses can work on issues such as transition from in-patient facilities, caregiver concerns, lack of structure/involvement in daily activities, structural and functional factors affecting adherence, and the presence of persistent symptoms. Patients may or may not have been exposed to some or all of the same data in other settings, but the home health model for reinforcing disease management education consistently results in greater understanding, adherence, and patient / family peace-of-mind. |
