4 Things You Maybe Didn't Know About Senior Care

Senior care in Nassau, New York, is not particularly difficult to understand. But there are some misconceptions and unknowns out there. Here are four things you maybe didn’t know about senior care.

1. Senior Care Can Be Provided In The Private Homes Of Seniors In Nassau, NY.

If you or your elderly loved one in Nassau could benefit from senior care, a senior living community isn’t your only option. There are several great senior living communities on Long Island and many seniors are happy and healthy in them. But they’re not for everybody. In-home senior care allows seniors to receive the same care in their own Nassau homes. What’s more, in-home senior care is almost always more affordable than moving into a senior living community.

2. Senior Care Doesn’t Only Improve The Physical Health Of Seniors In Nassau, NY.

When most people imagine senior care, they imagine a caregiver physically helping an elderly person or somebody living with a disability. They imagine a caregiver helping somebody in or out of bed, helping somebody get up and down stairs, helping somebody take care of their teeth or dentures, and so on. These services fall under on the umbrella of personal care, but that is only one type of senior care. Senior care can also include companionship services. Companion caregivers visit seniors in their Nassau homes, talk with them, listen to their concerns, encourage them to keep up with correspondence and be social, and monitor their mental health.

3. Senior Care Can Also Help Clients Look After Their Nassau Homes.

Senior care is all about allowing seniors to age in place. Many seniors love their Nassau homes and don’t want to move out of them and into a senior care community. This means they might need to receive personal care or companion care in-home. However, what if they can take care of themselves all right but taking care of their home is more challenging? Galaxy Home Care of Nassau of Nassau offers homemaking services so caregivers can see to the chores that clients find difficult.

4. In-Home Senior Care Can Even Involve Skilled Nursing Care.

The majority of senior care is provided by caregivers. All of our caregivers at Galaxy Home Care of Nassau are employees who are bonded and insured. But sometimes you need a medical professional. With skilled nursing care, a registered nurse can visit seniors in their homes to provide certain services.

    It is with great pleasure that I write this review about Galaxy Homecare. Choosing homecare for yourself your loved one is not easy and can be quite emotional too. Everyone at Galaxy made my experience wonderful. Starting with Ben, what can I say, the best person to help you navigate during these trying times and Natalie, an absolute treasure to the company. Of course, everyone else at Galaxy as well. Their home care personnel are top notch!! I highly recommend Galaxy Home care for you or your loved one!! Thank you.

    I can't say enough about the service Ben at Galaxy provided to ensure I had the best care possible for my 89 year old father who had dimentia and also took a fall recently. Ben took the time to really understand our needs as a family, given the challenging circumstances with his recent fall that immobilized my father to a degree. We were given the services of Kalu Odin whom for a month, who took care of my father like he was his own son, and I felt Kalu to be part of the family. He was absolutely attentive in every aspect and truly helped my father's recovery process. He loves what he does, and it shows with his empathy and his diligence with dad, who took a great liking to Kalu. Dad is doing much better, and I attribute that to Kalu ,Ben, and the Galaxy team!

    Galaxy Home Care came into my life when my mother was sent home from a SNF in no shape to be left alone. Ben explained how the agency could help. We have met many kind, caring HHA's. If I ever need to use an agency again, I would definitely contact Galaxy Home Care.

    Everyone is very helpful, especially Ben Kalika, who is always available or, if he is with another client, always calls you back immediately. And, the aide who worked with my mother, Guerlyne Jean Baptiste, is a wonderful, caring and compassionate person with great skills in working with elderly people. I could not have asked for more. Thank you.

    Wonderful service and great care for elderly. Galaxy Home cares and always avaliable to help. Forever grateful for the work that they do.

    Anastasiya Siniakovich Apr 19, 2022

    Galaxy Home Care is a life savior for our family. My mom suffered a devastating stroke in December rendering her handicapped and unable to live on her own. Navigating the Medicaid/Medicare maze became my full time job yielding very little results. If it wasn’t for the super knowledgeable, compassionate and overall professional Galaxy team, I still would have no dependable home care solution for my mom. They jumped through so many hoops and made everything work. Finally, somebody had my back! Thanks to Galaxy Home Care, they found a perfect home attendant for my mom, guided me through securing supplemental at-home services for her, and continue to provide lots of support and guidance as we move forward. Thank you, Galaxy Home Care!

    When your close elderly family members are in need of daily assistance, often we are not prepared for all the red tape, financial and personal decisions that come with it. Galaxy has been caring, professional and very accommodating with all of our requests. We feel very fortunate to be able to work with them.
