Today we said goodbye to one of our favorite nurses. Kiera has been absolutely amazing to work with, and we will truly miss the incredible care, kindness, and heart she brought to our patients. Wishing her all the best on her next chapter!

We also wrapped up NP Week in the sweetest way — from beautiful flowers, to wine, to warm cookies from Tiff’s Treats. 🍪💐🍷
A huge thank-you to Manor Lake Assisted Living & Memory Care - Hamilton Mill, Golden Rule Hospice, Accent Care, and Family Hospice, for the love and appreciation. We felt every bit of it! 💜

🌟 Now Offering Concierge Home Visits for Medicare Patients! 🌟

We’re excited to introduce a new way to experience healthcare — one that comes right to your home.

Our Concierge Home Visit Program is designed for private-pay residents in moderate to higher-income independent living communities and private homes (within 15 miles of Buford) who want more personalized, proactive, and convenient care than traditional insurance-based models typically provide.

With an annual membership, you’ll enjoy:
🏡 Regular, unhurried home visits
📞 Direct access to your care team
🩺 Personalized coordination with specialists and services

💜 A true partnership in your ongoing wellness.
While this program isn’t covered by Medicare or intended for subsidized housing communities, we remain deeply supportive of all older adults and continue to advocate for care models that serve diverse financial needs.

If you or your loved one values access, continuity, and peace of mind, our concierge home visits could be the perfect fit.

🧠💤 Let’s clear up some confusion about melatonin!

A recent article made the rounds this week suggesting that melatonin might cause heart failure — but that’s not what the actual study said.

The research found that people using melatonin were more likely to already have undiagnosed (or “masked”) heart failure, not that melatonin causes it. In other words, correlation does not equal causation.

What’s true:
Melatonin is a powerful antioxidant and has shown benefits in managing mood disorders and dementia-related behaviors. For many patients, it’s a gentle and effective alternative or adjunct to stronger psych medications.

⚠️ It’s also important to note that this study is preliminary, not yet peer-reviewed, and even contradicts existing research showing melatonin’s potential benefits for heart health.

Always look beyond the headline — science deserves context! 🔍

We had a great meeting today with our reps and an exciting new partner who offers blood-based screening for colorectal cancer! The best part- it’s covered at 100% by Medicare!

This innovative test provides a less invasive alternative to traditional colonoscopies — a huge step forward in preventive care for our aging patients.

We’re thrilled to be expanding our offerings to help make screening easier and more accessible for our QOALA patients!

Enjoyed a great evening at the game with some of our incredible Manor Lake team! Always a win when we get to spend time together off the clock. 🏈

Got the sweetest voicemail from my former patient Ms. Judy today — she said she needed a “Nelum hug.” 🥹. Of course I had to show up after hearing that!
She always says the rawest, most unfiltered things that make me LOL (like she did in this picture)
I miss our monthly life chats — full of wisdom, laughs, and realness. She’s been around since the birth of QOALA.
Some people leave a lasting imprint on your heart… Ms. Judy is definitely one of them. Love her so much 💜💜

Such a great night with Genesight and Jody- one of our favorite psych providers! 💜

Good food, great company, and even better conversations about how we can keep supporting our patients’ mental health.

We’re always grateful for opportunities to learn, collaborate, and continue improving the care we provide to our patients.

Missed a few from our crew- but they were there in spirit!

At QOALA Home Care, we believe that caring for one another is more than kindness—it’s what keeps a community strong. A simple check-in, a smile, or helping hand can remind someone they’re not alone. 💜

Our elderly neighbors especially thrive when they know someone is looking out for them. Together, we can build a world where no one feels forgotten, and every person feels valued and cared for.

Because when we care for our neighbors, we’re really caring for ourselves too. 🏡✨

When your office style is so on point that you accidentally show up twinning 💜
Great minds think alike… or maybe we just both really love beige and blue jeans 😂
