Can a caregiver assist my father with his medication?
A licensed caregiver can remind a patient to take their medication. Under the State of Florida LPNs and RNs are able to administer medication and provide medication management. A home health aide or a certified nursing assistant can only remind a patient to take medications. A CNA or HHA cannot even fill a pill box. Often times a family member fills pill boxes or a spouse and then the caregiver just reminds them to take the medicine as instructed by the doctor.
Can a Companion help with hands on personal care?
Companion” or “sitter” means a person who spends time with or cares for an elderly, handicapped, or convalescent individual and accompanies such individual on trips and outings and may prepare and serve meals to such individual. A companion may NOT provide hands-on personal care to a client. At Accountable Home Care, we refer only licensed caregivers that are either home health aides or certified nursing assistances that can offer companionship AND hands-on personal care.
Testimonials View All
We retained Accountable during a very emotionally trying period in our mother’s life after she became very ill and could no longer live alone. Accountable provided services to our mother for approximately 1 year. Although it is very difficult to bring a caregiver into the home of a person who has been independent for her entire life, Accountable was very sensitive to our mother’s needs and concerns. They worked with us to find professional, qualified caregivers to care for our mother. We would recommend Accountable to anyone in need of professional, qualified and sensitive caregivers for part-time or full-time care.
