  • I would like to thank you for the nursing services arranged during the last 10 days. Appreciate your help. I would like to mention Antony (Nursing co-coordinator) for the excellent support and help.

  • Hope you’re well and following al necessary precautions in these uncertain times. Stay safe!

    I wanted to send this note earlier but with the current situation and lockdown I’ve not been able to do so. My apologies for that.

    After 3 to 4 months of critical care, my father in law passed away earlier this month. We as a family are extremely thankful to the nursing staff who were with him throughout and did everything possible to make him feel comfortable and cared for.

    We did hit a rough patch at the start but your intervention helped a lot and we’ve not had to worry about quality thereafter.

    While there were quite a few staff members who were involved (Laxman, Monto, Ebby) and very good at their work, in particular we have a deep sense of gratitude for Mr. Jabin who has consistently been with him from day one. Mr. Jabin was assigned to take care of my father in law while he was still in hospital and he took all efforts to match the quality of care just as they were doing in the hospital. Till the last moment, he was there with our family and has gone above and beyond his duties. It was extremely touching to see how he developed a bond with his patient and would care for him as one of his own. The more I say is less when it comes to Jabin and the way he has taken care of him is exemplary.

    We are very thankful to the entire Portia team. Your services are a blessing for families that are need of critical care in a home setup.

    We wish you luck

  • I would like to appreciate the support provided by the Portea Luckow team during this crisis time.
    I have been taking services from your organization for almost over a year now, have faced few minor issues earlier but the kind of support the team provided in this testing time when the whole medical support is closed is exceptional and laudable.
    My father was admitted in hospital on 20th March and was in ICU and was forcibly discharged on 25th March while being monitored in ICU. I was not getting any support from any of the hospital then I called Rakshit for help. He immediately arranged for a 24 hrs nurse assistant at home. He gave me confidence to overcome the change of managing my father at home. He has been in constant touch with me providing help, guidance and facilitating medical supplies at home. Looking at the criticality of the patient he made a home visit and took cognizance of things , guided the NA asked him to take proper care and even help my mother in home care also.

    The efforts your Lucknow team put in to support the patient at home is highly commendable.
    Thank you so much for helping me out during these very difficult times. Your help has been invaluable to me, and I don’t know how I would have managed without your help and support. Again, thank you so much. I sincerely appreciate your generosity.

  • write this note as I still grieve the loss of my dear mama. I would like to thank you who personally ensured she had the care required in the last 2 months of her life.
    Pushpa, is a well-skilled attendant, the staff that substituted for her too had a great kind attitude to my mother, and this I appreciated very much. The physiotherapists had rehabilitated her well, given her condition as well.
    You run a good service for the sick and/or dying and God Bless you and Portea for the help and unwavering support provided to me and my mother.
    I would recommend your services without hesitation.

    Many thanks and best regards,

Introduction to Home Care

Homecare or heath care services comprises of any professional support services that enables a person to live comfortably at home. Homecare or hospice services can support someone who is aging and requires assistance to live independently at an age surrounded by diseases or someone who is managing chronic health difficulties, someone recovering from a medical setback, or someone with special requirements or a disability. Professional caregivers, like home nurses, aides, and therapists, offer either short-term or long-term in home care, depending on the requirements of the individual.

Brief About Types of Services

Home health care services are available to patients in a wide range of settings and circumstances. 

Depending on the patient’s circumstances, treatment may range from nursing care to professional medical services including laboratory workups. Your medical treatment or plan of care, as well as any home support you may require, will be decided by you and your doctor. At-home care services include the following:

Medical attention

A doctor may visit a patient at home to diagnose and treat an illness (es). A home health care professional may similarly conduct periodic reviews of the patient’s home care needs.

Nursing assistance

Nursing care may involve wound dressing, ostomy care, intravenous treatment, medication administration, monitoring the patient’s overall health, pain control, and other health assistance.

Physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and speech therapy

If a friend or loved one has been seriously injured or has experienced a serious illness, he or she may need help learning how to do everyday tasks again or improving his or her voice. A physical therapist can devise a treatment plan to assist a patient in regaining or strengthening use of muscles and joints. Occupational therapists can help patients with physical or developmental problems overcome their limitations by teaching them how to do things such as eat and bathe. A speech therapist can help a patient who is having trouble talking coherently.

Social and medical services

Social workers in medical settings provide counseling and access to community resources to help patients recover. If a patient’s medical condition requires coordination of several services and the patient is unable to make all the necessary appointments, social workers often serve as case managers.

Home Health Aides 

Homecare health aides can assist the patient with basic personal requirements including getting out of bed, walking, showering, and clothing. Some aides have obtained specific training to help with more specialized care while being supervised by a home nurse.

Care for the homemaker or minimal aid

While a patient is receiving medical treatment at home, a homemaker or someone who assists with duties or responsibilities may keep the household running by preparing meals, doing laundry, routine shopping like buying grocery, and other housekeeping activities.

Companionship

Some seniors who are alone at home may require the company of another person to give comfort and monitoring. Many companions may indeed help out around the house.

Volunteer assistance

Volunteers from community groups can give basic comfort to patients by giving companionship, assistance with personal care, transportation, psychological support, and/or assistance with paperwork.

Nutritional assistance

Dietitians can visit patients in their homes to provide counseling and nutritional evaluations that may help supplement the patients’ treatment plan.

X-ray and laboratory imaging

Certain laboratory procedures, like tests of blood and urine, can be completed at the patient’s own home. Furthermore, portable X-ray devices enable lab personnel to conduct this service at their homes.

Services related to pharmaceuticals

Medicine and medical supplies might be delivered to your house. If the patient need it, instruction on how to take medications or utilize equipment, including intravenous treatment, can be offered.

Advantages of Hospice or Home Care

Home health care can provide a number of Homecare health care services in your own home for medical and non-medical reasons, such as helping a family member stay connected with friends and family. It’s generally less expensive and more convenient than a hospital or skilled nursing facility. The elderly and people with disabilities can stay in their own homes while receiving the same services as they would in an assisted living facility. Family members are encouraged to be involved in the caregiving process and help the caregiver meet their loved one’s goals.

  • Healthy recovery
  • Familiar surroundings
  • Personalized care
  • Medication Management
  • companionship

Examples – When We May Need Hospice Care

Home care is a way of helping someone stay in their home as they get older or have chronic illness, recover from surgery or a disability. Home care for an illness, disease, or disability—including tracheostomy and ventilator care—can be provided in a short- or long-term manner. 

Someone with Alzheimer’s disease, parkinsons or any other.
