Wellness checks for elderly individuals are crucial for maintaining their health and well-being. These checks typically involve regular visits by our SamariCare Team to assess various aspects of their health, including physical, mental, and emotional well-being.

These are the key areas included in our weekly wellness checks:

• Physical Health: Assessments of mobility, balance, and overall physical functioning..

• Medication Management: Ensuring that medications are being taken correctly. This includes keeping track of medication schedules and refills.

• Nutrition: Checking on the elderly person's diet to ensure they are getting proper nutrition.

• Mental Health: Assessing for signs of depression, anxiety, or cognitive decline. 

• Safety: Checking the living environment for any safety hazards, such as loose rugs or inadequate lighting, can help prevent falls and other accidents.

• Social Interaction: Assessing the elderly person's social support network and level of social interaction.

Overall, wellness checks for elderly play a vital role in helping them maintain a high quality of life and remain independent for as long as possible.
