CENTRIC Home Health, Hospice & Palliative Care

Our purpose is to provide respectful and responsive patient-centered care to meet individual patient needs and preferences. Patient preferences guide all clinical decisions. Patients have the opportunity to improve their ability to function, live independently, promote their optimum level of well-being, and remain at home.

At the heart of all our services is the philosophy of patient and family care. Families and caregivers are equal members of our team. Mutual respect, information sharing, participation, and collaboration among patients, family members, caregivers, and healthcare providers is key to maintaining health and achieving the best possible outcomes.

Centric provides a wide range of skilled nursing services to manage chronic conditions, treat illness or support recovery.

Centric Solutions and its clinical partners offer “hospital at home” a type of service for patients recovering from surgery or managing a newly diagnosed medical condition. This program is designed for the insured, non-Medicare patient. This allows the post-surgical patient to recover at home; reducing hospital stays while improving their recovery time.

Palliative care is provided in conjunction with other types of care to relieve symptoms and stresses associated with life-limiting illnesses. Centric Cares is a transitional program designed for patients who are in the advanced stages of their disease. By connecting more often, introducing different skilled team members, and focusing on strategies to handle fear Centric Care brings comfort to the patient and families as they guide them into a better quality of life through a higher level of care.

Studies show patients who enter a structured, multi-disciplined in-home care program lower their risk of re-hospitalization. Home Health care focuses on curative and restorative care including a wide range of skilled nursing and social services delivered in your home to treat illness or injury. There are well-defined qualifying criteria that are used to determine if Home Health services are appropriate for you. Do you need help doing so; your need for skilled nursing services and skilled therapy care under the supervision of a licensed professional; and if your care need is intermittent, meaning care is needed for at least 30-60 days. Centric Care is focused on helping you manage a chronic condition or recover from an acute illness, surgery, accident, or a change in medication. These services are covered fully by traditional Medicare and based on policy specifications. They are also covered by private or supplemental insurance.

The Hospice care program focuses on comfort, dignity, respect in the end-of-life process Hospice end-of-life care provides pain management and comfort care for the terminally ill seeking quality of life, not curative care. Pain management and comfort care for those with a terminal illness are critical components to their care. Hospice care offers end-of-life palliative treatment, including support for physical and emotional needs as well as the needs of the family. It is important to remember that the goal of Hospice care is to help the patient live a life with comfort, dignity, and respect. Patients learn to manage their medical condition in the real-life daily setting of their home.

Though older drivers cannot reverse the aging process, they can try various strategies to make themselves more comfortable behind the wheel.

Share Driving Duties On Long Trips

The National Institute on Aging notes that stiffening joints and weakened muscles are a common byproduct of aging. In addition, the Arthritis Foundation® notes that more than one in two men and two in three women over age 65 have arthritis, which also can make driving less comfortable. Age-related aches and pains and arthritis can make it very uncomfortable to drive for lengthy periods of time when drivers are sitting in roughly the same position for the duration of their trip. In such instances, drivers can share driving duties to make long trips more manageable.

Upgrade To A Vehicle With Modern Amenities

Various amenities in modern vehicles make driving more comfortable for everyone, especially individuals with age-related aches and pains. Heated seats and in-car climate control can help reduce the discomfort caused by aches and pains and ensure drivers and passengers can tailor the temperature in the vehicle to their own preferences.

Protect Your Eyesight

Much of the discomfort older drivers experience behind the wheel has to do with eyesight. The NIA urges individuals 65 and older to see their eye doctor every year. Such visits can ensure prescriptions are current and that can make drivers more confident in their ability to see everything on the road. Drivers also can speak to their eye doctors about night driving glasses, which are designed to help nighttime drivers overcome glare from headlights and street lamps.

Drive More Defensively

A greater emphasis on defensive driving also can help aging drivers feel more comfortable behind the wheel. The NIA notes that reflexes naturally slow down as a person ages, which adversely affects older drivers’ reaction times. Drivers can counter this by leaving more space between their vehicles and the one in front of them. Braking earlier and avoiding driving during times marked by heavy traffic, such as rush hour, also can help drivers feel more comfortable.

It’s natural for aging drivers to feel less comfortable behind the wheel than they did when they were young. But drivers can take various steps to increase their comfort levels so they can stay on the road.
