The COVID-19 pandemic has changed life as we know it. For all of us. It effects seniors more than any other group.
This morning we got a call from a family who needs to find care for their loved one who is currently living with them, but requires much more care than they can provide, but they are still very hesitant to move them. They want them to stay at home. We see this scenario over and over. It’s 10 times harder for you to care for your loved one, than letting a professional Care Home care for them. Not to mention much more Safe for them to be supervised 24-hrs a day. The Families main concern was “is if was safe to move my mom with the COVID-19 pandemic still going on”. This is a great question. While it is not the best of circumstances, you can do it safely. The Care home (RCFE) should be testing its employees before each shift. Care homes are only letting medical professionals inside for Medically necessary visits. All other visitors are visiting through a window with 6ft in between. The Administrator will be able to help you get a COVID test for your loved one before they move in. They should be able to do this when the Physicians Report is completed. It is also mandatory for your loved one to get a COVID test before they move in. The Facility may even be able to have someone one to your loved one to provide a COVID test.
Care homes have been very vigilant in keeping their residents, and employees safe during this time. Sanitizing, and cleaning any contact surfaces multiple times daily. They should be able to show you their COVID protocols when you are touring the home. Most RCFE’s have not had a single case of COVID with their residents, or employees.
If your loved one requires more care than is currently provided to them... That is much more dangerous, than finding the right home to provide the right care to keep them safe.
If you are facing this issue yourself, or have any questions...Orange County Senior Solutions is here to help. Please feel free to reach out anytime (949) 394-4984. We can provide you with a list of resources, and help you start the process of finding the right care for your loved one.

My wife brought these “I Can Do it” affirmation cards to the office. Each morning we have been having our caregivers, and our residents pick a card. there’s no coincidence usually, the card you pick is just what you need to hear. Sometimes you get the same card if you times in one week. It’s because it’s what you need to hear.

Stay positive, humble, and most of all grateful. Remember to send out positive thoughts and energy to the world.

“Life is a journey”. It’s very rare to get anything right the first time. As my wife say “It just a mistake, won it, learn from it, and move Forward. The work would be boring if we were all perfect”.
Resilience is one of the most underrated qualities in a person. We all hit bumps in the road, we all have set backs. You may fail, but your never a failure until you give up. The difference is:

“CHAMIONS KEEP PLAYING INTIL THEY GET IT RIGHT”

keep trying, thinking, put forth the effort. Take action, most important Don’t Give up. It’s your work, you can right the line you live your life on... Hold on, it’s darkest before the light dawns.

It can be very tough transitioning to caring for a loved one who was cared for you. In the US we typically do not have multiple generations of a family living under the same roof like many other cultures.
caring for a loved one in your family can be very stressful. I truly feel it is at least 10 times harder for someone to Be a caregiver for a family member, then it is to have a professional caregiver step in to help. And it’s no easy feat for a professional caregiver. Caregiving is not a job for everyone, and caregivers are very underappreciated.

If you’re at that point where you need extra help to care for Your love one in your family… You are not alone. Don’t give up, reach out to someone, anyone. Help us out there. Reach out to Orange County Senior solutions, we will gladly help guide you in any way we can. We are here to help. With our families over 40 years of experience, and our third generation knowledge... We have the network and resources to help. And if we don’t… We will find them. That is a promise to you. The buyer side from The second we pick up your phone call, all the way through finding the correct care, correct medical professionals, and living situations as needed. We need to come together, this is not something we can do alone.

Sometimes it is the hardest..... No , It’s Always the the hardest thing to do. Is face the issue. Usually, you try to do everything and anything, but to face it. I’m the end no matter how you try to get around it, how many times you try, it’s not until you realize that you can’t get around it.. You have to go through it to get to the other side. Realizing, or even admitting this one small fact can be the hardest thing to do.

You have to face it, to go through it, and ultimately get through it.. Eventually you’ll get to the other side.

YOU CAN, and WILL get through it. YOU ATE NOT ALONE. There is support for you. All you need to do is reach out someone, to anyone. Reach out to us here, or call us. We know how hard it could be to take that first step.

Finding the right care for your loved one can be physically, mentally, and Emotionally exhausting. There is so much to consider, and a lot of times very time sensitive. When I talk about OCSS, I say that “ we are anything and everything but a placement Agency”.

This is an issue We feel VERY strongly about. There are so many “referral agents and agencies” out there, and more popping up every day. Very few do the all the work to find the correct care for your loved one. Sending out “Email Blasts or Faxes” to 100 Facilities is not the way you find the right care. ..
After meeting with you, and your loved one, the placement agent should understand the exact illnesses, Medication, care Needs, and what you feel the Facility must have. The agent should hand select 2-3 homes (4 Max) that they feel would be Able to consistently provide the exact care, and be the right fit for your loved ones daily and social needs. The agent should set up the the Day/time of the tour. The Placement Agent should ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS be there to personally tour the homes with you.
Although not always possible, a good placement specialist will have take care of the “Physicians Report”Lic-602, and have it completed from your loved ones Dr. to bring on the tours. This tells administrators everything they need to know about your Loved one. After all, the Facility Absolutely MUST have this completed for before they admit anyone into their Facility.
They should know the homes well, and have good relationship with the Administrators, and inform you about each home before you tour.
They should always follow up with you after giving you a little time to think… And once you find the right home, and place your loved one, they should always follow up with you afterwards. Not just after the tour, but after you have found the right hone and your loved one has moved in. They may even go as far as offering to be there on admission day.
These are all standard for each and every family that we work with at OCSS. None of these things are optional. We are different from the rest. This is our personal guarantee to you. We are ORANGE COUNTY SENIOR SOLUTIONS.
