passage is dry and when the throat is dry,its prone to choking when eating, because it

TIPS FOR CAREGIVER TO AVOID OLD PATIENT FROM FALLING

This responsibilities is vital and very important to take always into often in place

as to avoid any further serious problem that can cause from unwanted falling that

can lead to a various unwanted problem like permanent disabilities due to some

broken bones that cause from falling, and sometimes can lead to sudden death,

falling is one of the causes of death of some old people living without a caregiver,

and even inside home can possibly happen with a seconds,some old people fall in

bed and causes a lots of problem, and damage some parts of the body bones specially

the rib cage and if unfortunately,sometimes cause death due to falling head first,

and its depend on how the old person position when falling and there's a

lot of possibilities if a hard fall of an old person can cause any fracture to the bone

or perhaps broken,and in fact,most of the old people has a weak bone and even a

slight fall sometimes can cause a very serious matter.

Old patient is prone to falling,and must always taken into serious responsibilities

as a care provider,most of old people when walking,they're not lifting their feet in

making a step,instead they just slightly lifting and dragging it when they make a step

to walk,and it is dangerous when slipped,in this case,usually the social worker or

medical professional that monitor the patient health will recommend the family of

the old person to hired a caregiver to be with the old person at all times or someone

from the family to be with him/her grandfather or grandmother at all times,to prevent

future problem that cause from falling or slip,and one thing must be check is the shoe

of the old patient because sometimes shoe with excess inches before the old patient

toes,can also be the cause of unwanted falling or slipping.

And when the family decided as well as the patient to hire a caregiver,

as a caregiver in this case of the patient situation,the caregiver must always be

precaution on every step of the patient and always watch what will be on the way

of the patient steps,always avoid any obstruction from the patient steps or remove

any possible obstruction that can lead to falling or slipping,as a caregiver always

stay close to the patient sides and hold the patient shoulder and waist by controlling

the patient in moving forward faster,most of the old patient can't control their weight

and movement forward while walking and some of them they're not looking what

is on their way ahead,as a caregiver always find the best ways at all times to avoid

the patient from falling,and this responsibilities is must always taken to serious

matter and never let the patient walking alone and always stay alert because sometimes

some of the old patient never ask the caregiver to walk together or be with her/him

wanted,as a caregiver always be alert and responsible enough to do this vital task.

Always stay near or close at all times to the patient, and in this task, a caregiver will

need a lots of patience to handle this kind of task because most of the old patient they

move slow due to their age,just always bear in mind that always think in advance

CAREGIVER GEAR

There are gears to be take into account when in care giving,these gears can help the

caregiver to be in cool mode and normal when as needed,care giving is always a hard

task and challenging also stressful,but can be deal with essential formula that can be

always useful in care giving job,gear can be shifted in many ways depending on what

the personality of the caregiver,in care giving,is always depend who will be the caregiver

and what is the personality and characteristics as well as the attitude of the caregiver as

a person,caregiver job is always a test for the caregiver in day by day works and duties

and to the maximum capacity of the caregiver will be tested by time and situation.

and is always depending on the situation often on who the caregiver or who is the patient

as to say one way to the other.

Gear that I myself learn to use it in my care giving days is,shifting from negative to

positive mode,always find a way to divert the negative mode to positive mode as much

as it could to be able to have a good day and good flow relationship between caregiver

and patient,and one of the positive gear that useful is patience,patience is the one of the

key to have a good mode and positive flow,patience in care giving task must always

push to the maximum and its not that easy,as a caregiver,toughness in inner feelings

to be able to do such duties in positive result,not minding the negative feelings that

cause by our sensitivity when patient hurt our feelings,in caregiver always bear in mind

that taking care of a sick and needy person due to some diseases or disabilities that

sometime or often the patient doesn't mind if he/she are hurting the feelings of the care

provider,sensitivity in care giving must to be able to learn it to manage in controlling

oneself for better result,because sometime our sensitivity put us into negative flow,

sensitivity in oneself has two faces, the negative and the positive,this sensitivity is

must be deal in a right way to avoid any sudden discharge and the outcome is to give

up,this case can vary depending on the situation for both parties,sometimes there are

some situation that mismatched issue, and the chemistry for both caregiver and the

patient is impossible to match even for a caregiver that has a huge of patience,or

patient doesn't wanted the caregiver even for couple of months together,this cases

mention is really happening and the result of this cases is one will give up either

the caregiver or the patient,is always depend on the situation,case to case basis in

short to say.

Care giving gear is always useful for the caregiver as well for the patient sake,

just always bear in mind that always shift the gear from negative to positive in

hence. If the patient is always irritable and thinking too much of what is the hard

situation that he/she is in,always shift the gear to divert the mind of the patient to

think good things and let the good essence flow in the mind of the patient and let

the patient feel that you are always there beside him/her often to help and to be

the person that he/she can talk to what really bothers on or anxiety that cause

any mental disturbance that can lead to unhealthy for the physical,emotional well

being of the patient.

Just always find a way to shift the gear from negative to positive to obtain a

good and smooth flow between you as a caregiver and the patient. always open

to learn at all times what is the vital way to help the patient and in all ways as

much as possible and it will be a great result for both caregiver and patient in

days to come and building a good trust in both.        BY: J.LE

ACCEPTANCE AS A CAREGIVER

 

Miracle,this is the word that usually all of us people are always asking when time of

hardship and trial in our life, like trials that comes into our way sometimes is hard to accept

the fact, but all of us always asking for miracle specially when it comes to the situation

that involve our love ones that on the situation of losing them in our life and sometimes

is so hard to accept the reality,that we can say why its happening,when we see a person

that is very sick or in worse cases disease and the time is so slim to live the normal life, that

all of us are always wishing,this situation is hard and some are unfortunately is in the said

situation or was in this situation,and the truth, nobody will ever wanted to be in this situation.

But sometimes inevitable things and situation that unwanted to be happen,suddenly happen.

We can able to fell the grieve and sorrow of those people that experience losing their love

ones in their lives and sudden farewell that within is so painful and hard to accept,

and when you will just imagine how hard it is,its amazing because some of the very sick

people survive and still fighting for life to have the normal life as healthy as it could and

if not that healthy 100%,some chooses just to have a bit of extended time to live, because

they wanted a bit of time to spend together with their love ones.

All of us people wishes just one simple wish that most of us are often wishing,is to be as

healthy in day by day and enjoy the normal life that all of us are always wanted and

prayed for,in my personal experience as a caregiver,i had learned a lot of things to

understand life,and it shaped me as a whole as human, and as a complete to understand

what life really mean,when my care giving days I was so very observant to all

of what is really happening inside the world of care giving, and there's a lot of lesson that

I learned and will always be a part of my life as a human and as a person also as a caregiver,

as a care provider in past,i encounter a lots of patient and different kinds of sickness that

the patient is into,and I witness all the hardship and how they keep on fighting to stay

alive and wishes always to be healthy. and to feel better and stay more time for their

family and love ones. and in those time,i really do all the best I can to help and be the

person that the patient can count on, and to talk to,and in my heart I truly considered my

patients is my best friend.

In my care giving days,i often wishes for a miracle for my patients to give them

more life to be with their family and love ones together and be happy to enjoy life.

there was a time when me and my patient as well as the family are down due to the

situation that hard to imagine that is really happening before our eyes, that aware of

what will be in next couple of days,and all the medical staff in the hospital are doing

all the best of what they could as well me as a caregiver,the situation of my patient is

complicated and the chances of surviving is so slim,the only thing to extend the life

of my patient is by miracle,and on that time I always sit beside of my patient bed in

the hospital to be with him and I always pray that my patient will receive the miracle

from above and I always asking GOD to give my patient a new life for them to be

happy and be together for extended period of time and how I wanted the family of

my patient to be happy,but sometime, time comes, for each and everyone of us and

when that time comes and if its hard to accept,one thing we must always put into,

acceptance, that its not on our hand,its all above and we must always learn to accept

and go on with our lives no matter how hard it is,that's what really life is,and acceptance

is always a part of our life.

And its my privileged to be part of the caregiver world, that in my life I was able to

be a part of those good people, to be as part of my heart and true to me and treated me

as one of their own family. The happy moments that me and my patient shared together

was the greatest moment that part of me as a person and in my whole being as human.

Until know I always have a time to think about my patient that loves me and the family

of the patient as well. and I truly do all my best to the maximum range of my abilities

to serve and be one of their family that care and love them.     BY: J.LE

said draining,its involve the whole well being of the caregiver,this draining impact

can affect the emotional,physical,spiritual and psychological well being of a

caregiver as a whole. When draining impact is explode within the caregiver

well being,this could cause some health problem,to avoid or prevent this impact,

the caregiver must always take sometime to have a bit of space for him/her self

to know where he/she stand,and to be able to coup up with stress,such as emotional

and physical,caregiver must often figure what is really important for the patient

and one thing is to take care of own self,because if the caregiver doesn't able to

take the responsibility to take care of her/his own self,how could the caregiver

give the good care for the patient. The first priority of the caregiver is a must always

be in mind at all times and not be taken for granted,the own health care.

As a caregiver,one thing is to stay fit and always find time to energize back as

much as possible as it could,care giving job is always stressful job but it can be

manage and well executed by means of time management and handling the task

and duties smartly and effective,always have the plan to manage the daily task and

in smart planning,always find the easiest way to perform the daily task but the same

result with the previous way,as a caregiver,you must always have the space prepared

for learning,always learn day by day and finding the easy and effective solution for

all the hard task and pressure task,learn to control your feeling when it comes to

emotional,and the important to it, learn to find ways how to release the negative flow

and divert it into positive charge,its always case to case basis when comes to care

giving job and its not always the same what will be the daily task of a caregiver but

the important is,the caregiver must always be flexible and knows how to deal with

emotional stress,physical stress and all other negative flow that ahead of the way.

Healthiness and well fit to do all the vital responsibilities for the patient,this is very

important for the caregiver to take always the responsibility for own self,because if

the caregiver is healthy,all the best in maximum treatment for the patient can be done

properly and both the patient and caregiver is healthy in day by day.      BY J.LE

HANDLE WITH CARE FOR PATIENT AS A CAREGIVER

                                

Handle with care,there's such a huge meaning when we say the phrase handle with

care,the common type of meaning that we used to, is,handling with care due to the fact

that,whether a thing,a living organism or a person,is in need of careful handling in various

reason. why?.

In things, when we say handle with care is,due to its fragile contained or sensitivities

within the quality of such thing,and needed to be handle with such care to avoid a

possible damage.

In care giving job,handle with care is always been the goal of the caregiver to give

all the best good care for the patient,when it comes to care giving job,there are always

a lots of angle to considered as a caregiver,first thing is,always and always to understand

the patient condition and knowing deep enough on what the personality of he patient.

Personality of the patient is not always the same and due to patient illness and condition

there are always negative characteristics that sometimes can be hurting the feeling of the

caregiver,hence,when a patient is saying something that hurt the feelings of the caregiver

example,if the patient is angry of his/her condition and not cooperating with the treatment

and not allowing the caregiver to do the task because the patient wanted to be alone,in this

case,its a natural feeling for the patient,its not intentionally done and due to health condition

its natural,and as a caregiver don't take it personal,just be open minded to understand what

really the reason why the patient is on that point. if we just really understand and truly open

our mind,its not that easy for the patient to be on that situation,and no one will ever wish

to be on that position. we can always put our feet in their situation and fully understand

how hard it is,specially when the patient is well active before and suddenly due to some

unfortunate reason that put the patient on that hard condition to accept and the patient can

see the wheel chair and all the medical devices,psychological is bothering a lot for the

patient mental and well being as well.

As a caregiver, its part of the job as caregiver,do all the best to give the good care giving and

find the ways to gain the trust of the patient and let the patient feel that you as a caregiver

is the person that he/she can count on and can be trusted as a friend,do all the best to help

the patient as much as possible,always bear in mind that,if you do all the best and do all

the good treatment and treat the patient as if is your father,mother,brother and a best friend

and handling it with a care that comes from your heart naturally as one that can understand.

the patient will feel it naturally and slowly will accept you as the person that he/she can

count on and the person that will be there always to help as a best friend,it'll take time

but as soon the patient feels your good care and concern to help him/her to restore the

strength back and the way you treat good of her/him,no matter what his/her condition,

all will be in good place and you'll just noticed that the trust and care also the cooperation

regarding the treatment is already flowing smoothly and the foundation is already been

in place and developed a good relationship as a caregiver and patient and can be often

the good result that the patient and caregiver is the best of friend.         BY:J.LE

COMMUNICATION AND CONNECTION FOR CAREGIVER AND PATIENT.

Communication,is the way to build a good relationship in all aspect in our

day by day living,and this simple word can do a vast of good outcome specially

when it comes to building a good relationship,whether a friend relationship or

business partner,husband and wife communication,relatives communication or

whatsoever,communication is the key to connect to others,whether sharing an

ideas,discussion,mail,email,chat, etc. there's a huge of useful outcome in our

lives by means of communication,and in fact,communication that connects us

all in this days,through internet,and internet put us all in close distances to be

one, and as easy as one click to connect what ever the range of the distance that

apart us before.now through internet communication,all have been change and 
made the world as one.

In care giving,communication is very important in daily task or duties,and as

a caregiver,communication is always be the part of treatment for the patient,

and not just communicating by means of asking the patient the daily and

common question,like did you eat,good morning,I'll cook,I'll give you a bath,

in general I mean,the common way,and after that good night,then the same

thing for tomorrow,its not enough,and its not the way to communicate for

good, to help the patient in treatment,good communication means good

bonding and connection,and with this good communication and connection,

the treatment,medication,and etc. will be as easy as we can imagine,with this

good two tools,the caregiver can build a very well attachment to the patient

heart and as a whole,and all the basic treatment and various task and duties

will be as smooth as sailing in the silent river.

Communication and connection is always the key in all aspects and angles

in our lives not just in care giving but in all parts of our lives,and it'll start

from our very own home and in our job,friends and all, as in generally speaking.

Through good communication and good connection,we are always building

a stable bridge that last and well attached to the ground and closeness

to each others lives, this good result will be achieved when one makes the

good communication and good connection.and with this two keys,

if done if properly and with heart,we can touch peoples lives and
