Osteoarthritis

Osteoarthritis can lead to frustration, weariness and depression when a person can no longer perform simple, daily tasks with ease. But in most cases, people with osteoarthritis can lead full, active lives by properly managing the condition. Right at Home can help alleviate some of the pressures of daily living by offering:

  • Meal preparation
  • Light housekeeping
  • Shopping
  • Laundry
  • Assistance with recreational activities

Osteoarthritis Information and Resources

  • More than 22 million people in the U.S. and U.K. have some form of osteoarthritis.
  • More than half of the population over the age of 65 would show osteoarthritis in at least one joint.

Other agencies cannot compare to Right at Home's service. When I use Right at Home to place a caregiver into someone's home, I know they not only come to do their job, they also build relationships. Their intake process is in-depth in order to help place staff that will fit the patients' needs. I think this is the cornerstone of so many happy patients. They have a genuine interest and passion for the elderly.
