Caring for aging parents doesn’t have to be difficult. Whether you're helping them look for a senior facility, seeking out occasional at-home care, or they’re rehabbing after a serious injury, you and your loved one may benefit from additional assistance. Circumstances such as healing from an injury or major surgery, in particular, require careful consideration on your part to determine the best option for your loved one.

Below, The Vineyards at Concord in Frankfurt, OH, offers a brief guide on when an elderly parent may need inpatient rehabilitation:

  • rehabilitationIntensive Recovery: One of the major benefits of inpatient rehabilitation is the constant, round-the-clock care. Those recovering from major accidents or surgeries that have severely impeded movement may especially benefit from inpatient rehab, as it can help patients regain as much mobility as possible.
  • Independence: If your parent's physical issues are compromising their independence, including impeding their ability to walk and perform other daily functions, then an inpatient facility may be the right choice. Patients at risk of losing their independence need the attention, assistance, and intensive recovery programs only these clinics can provide.
  • Commitment: If parents are willing to stay at an inpatient rehabilitation center, the benefits can be enormous. But, if they’re against or extremely upset by the idea, they must be made ready for the process to fully benefit from it. Talk with parents to see what their state of mind is and take steps to get them on the same page—doing so will allow them to receive the unparalleled care they require.
