Smart Care Assessment

You’re First Care has been performing a thorough Smart Care assessment for over 10 years.  This assessment is vital to the overall success of our care programs and allows us to customize a care plan addressing the specific needs of the individual.  We assess the home environment as well as their abilities and challenges both physically, cognitively, and environmentally. 

CONCERNS AND DESIRED OUTCOMES

The areas we are most concerned with that give us the best successful outcomes and allow us to provide the highest level of care your loved one needs to thrive not just survive are:

  • Identifying Changes in Medical Conditions – this allows us to report health or cognitive changes to families and clinicians.
  • Safety in Their Environment – this allows us to identify and recommend changes to help keep your loved one safe.
  • Self-reliance/Independence – getting the needs of the individual met including ADL’s (activities of daily living).
  • Quality of Life – having a life worth living.
  • Care Management – we identify who is responsible for every level of care.
  • Aging in Place – statistics show that private duty (one-on-one care) done correctly gives an older adult the best chance to be successful in their aging journey. 

This assessment helps us identify physical care needs and get processes in place to minimize risks in a person’s environment. The assessment provides the information, unemotionally, needed to develop a plan of care conducive to achieving the best outcomes possible for our older adults.
