Work-Life Balance for Caregivers
Healthcare is an incredibly stressful career field. Caregivers constantly face things others could never even dream of, and providing care in a home-based setting adds to that stress. Caregivers in home-based settings work most of their time independently, develop a closer relationship with the patient and family, and often work long hours. To prevent burnout, caregivers need to maintain an excellent work-life balance.
Many families and elderly patients are now increasingly considering Hospital-at-home and SNF-at-home models. Private Duty Nursing Home Care agencies are uniquely positioned to take advantage of this trend and grow. Private Duty Nursing Agencies can partner with Hospital Systems or Accountable Care Organizations (ACO) to provide skilled care at home.
Leveraging technology and the right software platform will help Private Duty Nursing Home Care Agencies to implement strategies to effectively manage Electronic Medication and Treatment Administration and ensure patient safety.
New nurses, CNAs, and caregivers can often feel lost and overwhelmed due to the immense responsibility they now hold for sometimes critically ill patients. Lack of proper support through these new challenges can lead to employee burnout, job dissatisfaction, and decreased patient care. There are countless benefits to supporting new clinicians, including increased employee retention, increased employee referrals, and improved patient care.
