In-Home Care Services for Seniors with COPD

Serving the East Bay Area: Castro Valley, Oakland, Berkeley, San Leandro, Alameda, CA

Being diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) requires ongoing care due to its gradual progression. The lung condition can not only be debilitating for the sufferer but can become an emotional and physical burden to family members. When resources are limited, managing COPD can be a thief of joy, time, and energy.

With ComForCare by your loved one’s side, we’ll ensure their condition is well-stabilized while giving them the best quality of life possible with our hospice care services. Our help will also relieve the emotional load and obligation off family, allowing you to focus on what’s most important: making positive memories with your loved one.

Caring for Someone with COPD

Without hospice care involved, family members caring for someone with COPD often feel unprepared for the responsibilities suddenly placed on them. Caregiving for someone with this diagnosis necessitates medical awareness, medication management, and helping your loved one complete daily tasks.

As their condition worsens, caregiving for your family member with COPD can become increasingly difficult. The patient will have more exhaustive needs, require support more often, and need frequent monitoring. With a lack of medical training, helping a family member with COPD can be even more complicated.

How We Can Help Manage COPD Symptoms

Utilizing our professional at-home COPD services here at ComForCare can ensure proper management of your loved one’s symptoms without adding to the demands of family members.

Our caring staff focus on a variety of tasks including monitoring symptoms, administering medications, conducting oxygen therapy, and supplying any necessary equipment the patient might need such as a nebulizer. We can also assist with flareups the patient might be experiencing and help determine the next course of action.

Medical, Emotional, and Physical Support

Our hospice center’s employees not only have medical knowledge, resources, and equipment to tend to the latter tasks, but we also have a nurturing and empathetic motive behind our work. What is more, we can help with more than just the medical aspects of COPD.

We emphasize forming a companionship with our patients, providing emotional encouragement as needed, and helping them with light household duties. Our team also works to connect patients’ families with the resources they need when caring for and supporting their loved one with COPD.

In-Home Care for Those with COPD

Patients with COPD don’t have to give up their dream of continuing to live in the comfort of their own home. With in-home care services from ComForCare, we reinforce the value of staying home while receiving medical and assistive care convenient for the patient in terms of accessibility, cost, and quality.

Whether your loved one requires frequent care or 24/7 support, our caregivers will walk along this journey with them. Our services can help give patients a greater quality of life, take strain off overwhelmed family caretakers, all while providing cost-effective medical care. Hospice can truly be one of the best gifts you can give to your loved one.
