Our Services
JEV CARE HOME INITIATIVE offers the aged a homely and a happy environment. Jev care also provides a wonderful and comfortable home as their real homes. We are always there to keep them company while their children are busy with their daily activities or at work (companionship). Jev Care will do her best to make sure the elderly receives the best daily care needed in maintaining their desired lifestyle. Caring for an elderly family member can be a rewarding experience. Not all of us have the opportunity to express love and appreciation to a parent for what they have done for us in such a way. Take good care of them now so you will have no regrets later.
We emphasize on the social and personal needs of the aged parents who need some assistance with daily activities. In Jev Care home, we assist with activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing, feeding, or meal preparation. This is referred to as personal care or custodial care. The family can hire help to stay with his or her aged parent at home but it is better to bring them to the home where we have other aged people, so as to mix with other aged parents from different location and ethnic groups. Also, this will help to reduce the work load of our elderly parents.
Keeping a household running smoothly, takes a lot of work. This requires the help of a maid, family member or a care giver since it will be too much for our aged parents to do the cleaning. Jev Care Home care-givers are trained to be professionals in other to maintain a quality one-on-one relationship with your elderly parents. The care-givers will carry out non-clinical duties such as daily assistance, laundry and cleaning to make things easy for the elderly parents.
The negative attitude towards aging on the part of an older person has a direct impact on that person’s health. Studies have shown that people who are physically active have less joint pain, lower blood pressure, less depression, fewer heart attacks and a lower incidence of cancer. Proper nutrition also has the same effect on the aging process; it delays the onset of debilitating illness or disability. Lack of activity and poor nutrition often lead to obesity. More than any other problem facing older people, obesity can have the worst effect on their health. It leads to joint degeneration, heart problems, stroke, congestive heart failure, diabetes and other chronic medical conditions because of this public attitude many elderly people waste the remainder of their lives living in alcohol or drug induced stupor. And their health suffers as well due to lack of activity and poor nutrition. Jev Care is ready to reduce or stop this by making sure nurses and doctors are available in the home to check them regularly and administer drugs to the elderly parents that resides in Jev Care home.
Transportation is a key issue for older parents. They find it difficult to drive or can’t drive at night. This is one major risk to them. They may want to look at different transportation measures just to travel or get to their destination but this may expose them to risking their lives. Therefore, Jev Care Home Initiative advice children and families to bring their aged parents to the home where they receive only the highest quality care needed.
STIMULATING THEIR MENTAL AWARENESS Talking with our elderly parents about their living situations and the possible need for change is not always easy; therefore, successful conversation depends to an extent upon the relationship the care givers have with the aged parent, as well as on the parent’s mental, emotional, and physical condition. While many people put off serious conversations to avoid conflict or awkwardness, both parent and adult child may lose an opportunity for closeness, understanding, access to information that may affect the decision, and optimum peace of mind. Therefore, Jev Care Home care givers are trained on how to communicate with the elderly in order to stimulate their mental awareness.
When it becomes difficult or impossible for the aged to leave home without help, isolation can rapidly set in and this causes loneliness and depression. They may not be able to participate in hobbies they once loved; stay involved in community service that kept them motivated, or visit with friends and family. Losing these connections and support is a recipe for depression
In Jev Care Home Initiative, there is no loneliness or depression because the care givers are there to occupy them and the elderly have the opportunity to mix with other aged people to make friends and share ideas and knowledge.
