Stay Safe and Independent: A Story of Resilience and Care
At Nest & Care, we understand the profound impact falls can have on seniors and their families. The story of Nancy, a resilient 92-year-old widow living in her beloved home in Montgomery County, MD, built in 1949, highlights the real-world challenges and solutions related to fall reduction among seniors.
Nancy’s Story: A Lifetime of Memories and a New Challenge
Nancy, alongside her husband, raised four children in their family home, filled with decades of memories. After her husband passed away two years ago, Nancy’s connection to her home grew even stronger, making her adamant about staying despite her children’s concerns. They worried about her safety and suggested moving to an assisted living community, but Nancy wanted to maintain her independence.
Understanding her desire, the family found a compromise through Nest & Care, which provided a part-time caregiver to assist Nancy for four hours a day, five days a week. This arrangement allowed her to enjoy the comfort of her home while ensuring her well-being.
A Frightening Fall and a Family’s Response
However, a few months ago, the unforeseen happened. Nancy fell in the middle of the night while trying to navigate to the bathroom. It was a harrowing morning when her caregiver discovered her on the floor, unable to get up on her own. Fortunately, despite the fall, Nancy didn’t break any bones. The incident was a wake-up call for her family, amplifying their fears about her safety.
In response, the family decided to increase the level of care. They augmented the caregiver support to ensure Nancy would have additional help, particularly during the night, aiming to prevent such scares in the future. This decision was driven by love and the collective realization that while Nancy’s independence is precious, her safety is paramount.
