Patient and Elderly Care Training is designed to support families and caregivers who are responsible for providing daily care to their loved ones at home. Whether you’re managing the process yourself or working with a caregiver whose skills you wish to improve, this training program equips you with essential knowledge and practical techniques to ensure safe, effective, and compassionate care.
If you provide support for all the care needs of your elderly or patient, or you have a caregiver but think that the service is not sufficient, you can benefit from the “Caregiver Training” program of the Medical Center.
Patient and elderly care training, there may be times you need to get professional support to meet the social needs of your loved ones during disease and/or old age processes and to follow up health-related problems. It is often difficult to decide what these needs are, how to plan them, and from whom to seek support. In the decision-making phase, the sustainability of the economic dimension of these services is also important.
Since the public relief is not available for these processes, you can choose to obtain your caregiver needs from non-health institutions such as consultancy companies or individual employees.
The problems usually being encountered in caregiver services you will receive from non-health institutions is the lack of knowledge, experience and discipline. We, as Medical Center, we know that it is difficult to manage these processes and what you are going through. And in these processes, we provide you with professional support for the training of your caregiver.
“Caregiver Education” program provided by our specialist home care nurses can be planned according to the condition of the patient or the elderly, the care needs and your expectations from your caregiver.
