What should you ask Patient Care before starting care?
Ask about breathing and oxygen management
34.9% of patients had less shortness of breath by the end of care (Connecticut average 91.9%). If the diagnosis is COPD or heart failure, ask how the nurse monitors breathing between visits.
Ask about transfer training
35.6% of patients improved at getting in and out of bed (Connecticut average 90.1%). Ask whether the therapist will train the family member who does the lifting, not only the patient.
Ask who helps with bathing, and how often
41% of patients improved at bathing (Connecticut average 89.5%). Ask whether a home health aide is part of the plan or whether bathing help is left to the family.
Ask who answers after hours
Problems rarely wait for office hours. Ask whether the night and weekend line reaches one of their own nurses or an answering service, and how long a call-back usually takes.
