Educating Patients
It is also important that patients learn what the potential risks of infections are. During care, our caregivers teach their clients ways of prevention. To avoid unnecessary issues, caregivers remind every patient about do’s and don’ts every once in a while. This way, the prevention efforts will always be on top of their mind.
Focusing on Higher Risk Areas
To effectively control infections, Goshen HealthCare Services LLC emphasizes higher risk practices. Home health infection prevention focuses on wound care, infusion therapy, respiratory care, and urinary tract care. If we don’t pay attention to these areas during a care process, a patient could easily get an infection. Therefore, our caregivers have specialized training to safely deliver these types of care.
Infections Associated with Equipment
Wound care, infusion care, urinary tract care, etc. require using certain supplies, devices, and equipment. It is essential to learn how to properly use these to minimize the risk of infection. To decrease the risk, both caregiver and patient use hand hygiene products and protective equipment.
