Helping a senior family member after they’ve experienced an injury or disease complications can be difficult and challenging, especially when searching for the right in-home caregiver for older adults. Most times, once they are released from the hospital, there’s still a lot of home health care that’s required to maintain their daily activities.

That’s exactly why we offer rehabilitation elderly home care for seniors in Massachusetts. We understand the challenges that arise during this time, and the importance of having Massachusetts rehab specialists and a rehabilitation support team to ensure a smooth recovery process.

Does My Parent Need Elderly Home Care Rehabilitation?

There are many reasons to consider elderly rehabilitation care when the time comes. Elderly family members tend to be less steady on their feet, and can injure or become ill quite easily. This could result in a slower recovery period when proper senior care isn’t implemented, leading to a need for personalized rehab care.

The following ailments may be best treated through elderly rehabilitation care:

Joint Injury/Replacement

As seniors live longer lives, unfortunately the joints can take a toll and become increasingly susceptible to injury. Whether it’s an injury or a replacement surgery, recovery time can be slow as bones and joints heal. Home health aides are able to provide personalized, caring assistance during this time.

Fracture/Broken Hip

Recovery from hip fractures and broken bones can be a painful, oftentimes slow process. Full healing can range anywhere between 10-12 months. With our rehabilitation assistance, we provide long-term care to ensure that your loved one is properly cared for and recovers as comfortably as possible.

Stroke

A stroke can leave your loved one feeling confused, overwhelmed, and uncertain. North River Home Care provides top-level care with elderly stroke rehabilitation through our assisted living in-home care services, including Massachusetts dementia assistance.

Brain Injury

Many seniors and elders who experience a brain injury will require a caregiver to help during recovery. Our caring, highly certified team of in-home caregivers and Massachusetts rehab specialists are able to provide the comfort and assistance needed for smooth rehabilitation.

Amputation

Caregivers at North River Home Care are dedicated to improving the overall health and function after an amputation occurs. Mobility and gaining independence are carefully and lovingly considered, as well as how to accomplish tasks given the new limitations.

Other

Other common ailments treated through elderly home care in Massachusetts include:

  • Multiple Sclerosis
  • Neurological conditions
  • Arthritis
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Nerve impingement
  • Aneurysm
  • Cancer/tumor

Through proper in-home care and attention, seniors are able to recover while living at home in Massachusetts in a safe and comfortable environment at their own pace. This provides family members a sense of relief knowing that our caregivers treat each patient like family.

If you’re unsure you can provide proper rehabilitation care on your own, it may be time to consider professional help from caregivers with experience in personal care. Our caregivers possess the necessary qualifications to care for your loved ones and provide comprehensive rehabilitation assistance.

Treatment Benefits

Apart from improving the quality of life for seniors in need of personal attention and care, elderly rehabilitation care from North River Home Care can offer additional help with:

  • Regaining communication skills
  • Improving mobility and muscle function
  • Gaining emotional support and understanding
  • Increasing mental health and wellness

Depending on the severity of injury or illness, your elderly loved one may need additional healing time with a caregiver. This would allow them the freedom and mobility they once knew. When undergoing a life-altering event, the goal is to help the patient achieve their maximum potential through proper care techniques and rehabilitation solutions.

North River Home Care, with its team of dedicated caregivers and Massachusetts rehab specialists, understands these treatment benefits are vital to getting your loved one back to health with personal care, attention, and compassion and ensures they receive the best rehabilitation assistance possible.

My 94 year old mother returned to her apartment in September 2024 after a fall and time in the hospital and in rehabilitation.    North River Home Care was recommended to us by a person we trusted.  Our experience with North River was excellent from start to finish.  Management was highly responsive, from our first call, and constantly monitored my mother's care.  The aides who were with my mother were all caring, and did a terrific job helping my mother maintain her dignity while assisting with necessary details of life.  My mother responded to this support and gradually grew stronger.  With time we were able to slowly reduce aides services from 24 hours daily to the point that no further assistance was required.  Over a month has passed since then and my mother continues to do very well.  This recovery was in great part the fruit of the caring help and gentle assistance North River provided to her, bringing her back to pretty much as she was and once again walking long distances (no not running but she never did).  .  We are all extremely happy with the support she received from North River for which we remain most grateful.

After our father had experienced multiple hospital stays, we wanted to avoid another rehab facility. We decided to move him back into his assisted living community with a 24hr caregiver. Jen Davis was compassionate and easy to work with. The caregivers were all wonderful, especially Cheryl and Dourina. We used NRHC for 3 weeks and highly recommend this team to other families looking for 24hr care.

North River’s caregivers provided comfort to my father and my family when we really needed it. They emphasized with us and gave us our privacy when we needed it. I would highly recommend them to anyone who needs help caring for an elderly patient.

The North River Team was excellent while dealing with my parents care. Our Care Advisor Mia met with us and went over all they can do and gave me frequent updates. The home aids were wonderful in dealing with my mother who can be difficult and helped my Dad run errands as well as with hygiene and self-care. When the time comes for more help with my parents home care we will definitely be contacting North River Home Care.

Hiring North River Home Care came at a difficult time. My wife was dying and came home in hospice care. Having good and reliable Home Care assistance was essential to providing round the clock attendance at my wife's bedside. Julia Hawkins was North River's Client Service Manager. She was attentive and helpful describing how Home Care would work when we met in our living room. She was easy to reach by phone subsequently. My wife's home stay lasted two days. The North River Home Care team was here when my wife arrived from the hospital and there were three sequential aides with my wife at all times. My wife died the next day while Luisa, North River's Home Care aide, was caring for her. After the hospice nurse left Luisa provided the care my wife needed allowing my sons, her sister, and me time to sit and grieve together. Luisa was extraordinary. She was there but sensitive to our time and place at my wife's bedside. Luisa's experience and knowledge about care and dying were invaluable. After my wife had died and we had said our good byes Luisa prepared her for the undertakers and allowed us time to be with her for the last time. While our time with North River Home Care was very short, the care and service were necessary, important, and very helpful. I would recommend anyone looking for this kind of support to reach out to North River Home Care.
