    IN ADDITION, Mik RN ASSISTS THE OLDER ADULT TO AGE IN PLACE.  SAFETY, INDEPENDENCE, AND HIGH LEVEL QUALITY OF LIFE ARE THE PRIORITIES.

• A fresh and professional set of eyes to examine the home for hidden dangers, nutritional issues, activity/mobility difficulties, and hygiene needs.
  
• The medication list and the medical goals are reviewed for efficiency and compliance.
  
• Extensive family input results in specific concerns being addressed.
  
• Safe transition from hospital to home is assured.  Medication management, post operative wound checks,  dressing changes are performed.
  

• Once a relationship has been established, my services may be used to assess the client while the family is out of town, to make a house call, or to be "on call" for questions/issues.              
  
• I act as an advocate and medical translator during doctor appointments, ensuring questions are answered and properly understood.             
  
• By assuring the medical goals and medications are deemed appropriate by client and family, money and time are saved by using less medications and by taking less trips to the doctor.  (Polypharmacia is a major threat to the older adult.)                           
  
• By undertaking simple safety measures that lower the risk of a fall, enormous hospital bills may be avoided.  (Falls are the leading cause of emergency room visits by the older American and the #1 cause of hospital admits due to trauma.)
  
• By promoting independence, safety, a healthy lifestyle, and quality of life; premature use of adult day care, assisted care, and nursing homes may be prevented.
