Taking care of the elderly in kurnool
Giving Proper Care and Attention
The elderly are prone to falls as their sense of balance is not perfect, and quick
turn of the head also might trigger vertigo or confusion. There are many cases of
the elderly persons walking straight into a wall, mistaking it for the door, or falling
down in the bathroom due to a wet floor. It is a good idea to install railings or
grab rails along the walls, and avoid having sharp edged furniture in the home, to
protect the precious elders
Encouraging and Praising Independence
This strips patients of their dignity or their self esteem. We should think that our
role is to support what the infirm elderly can do, and allow them to lead a good
life in their declining years.
One should encourage their autonomy and independence , unless there is a risk
to life and limb. Encourage healthy behavior, without limiting the patient’s
decision-making abilities
Responding Compassionately to Needs
There are people who think that the elderly do not need three square meals a
day, and should manage with less, as they are ‘old’. Even old, or infirm persons
desire certain foods or favorite treats
How to Feed the Elderly
But, by no means should they be given the same monotonous food like plain curd
rice or khichdi, day in and day out. If they are bedridden, and do not sit up to eat,
then one has to be extra careful about the consistency, temperature and texture
of the food, as they might have dentures and might be unable to chew some food.
In such cases, there is a danger of choking
