Caregivers, Providers, Advocates: Standing Up and Speaking Out for Client Wellbeing

It can feel very unnerving when your needs are not being met, your concerns are being swept under the rug, or your wants/opinions are not being considered. Frustration and defeat are often felt when it seems no one is listening, and feelings of abandonment can set in when no one is near to offer support. Advocacy is necessary to ensure needs are tended to, safety is upheld, comfort levels are respected and concerns are taken seriously. For individuals who require assistance with everyday routines due to injury, illness, health conditions, memory loss, impacts of aging or otherwise, assistance may also be necessary when it comes to making sure they are being seen and heard. In such cases, having both a trusted support system and an advocate can make a world of difference.

Our Aqua Home Care team believes in every care recipient feelingย comfortable, safe, well-cared for and heard. We facilitate this through our field expertise, reputable registry, mindful referrals, and 24/7 reachability. Being in the presence of a trusted caregiver means that someone will be there to listen to what it is you need while ensuring your wellbeing, and having someone nearby who can help advocate for your needs is a true benefit. Caregivers often spend a great deal of time in their clientโ€™s home. This time is spent getting to know their client, listening, observing, seeing to needs and building a strong rapport. The experience and knowledge gained from providing personal daily care can enable your caregiver to advocate for your needs should you need assistance doing so. If requested, your caregiver can offer this support in various situations, such as:

  • In the event of an emergency
  • During doctorโ€™s visits
  • When in need of services
  • During hospital stays
  • When in stores or other venues
  • And more

At Aqua Home Care, it is our priority to ensue the best care services for those seeking support for activities of daily living. Knowing that youโ€™re in the capable, compassionate hands of someone who truly cares brings peace of mind and a sense of security. When considering in-home care, Aqua Home Care is here to answer your call. We will match you with a compatible provider best suited to meeting your needs. Caregivers then ensure that those needs are not only met, but made known whenever necessary.
