At some point in time, all of us have searched for nursing services or senior citizen homes in Pune or elsewhere, with mixed results.
While we all want to support our senior citizens as they advance in age or provide specialized nursing care for long-term patients at home, it is not always possible. This is due to the lack of adequate formally trained nursing resources, difficulty in their traveling several times a day, sincerity of the individual staff appointed for home visits, and the need for qualified supervision that we are not able to provide at home. As the health care needs of the patient evolve, you will need to consult your doctor, who needs to check the patient physically. So now, you have to find a way to move the patient or the senior citizen to a doctor, which is often very nightmarish. Moreover, as the patient’s health conditions change, the need to show to a doctor can arise several times a week.
Interestingly, we have found that compared to caring for patients needing nursing care, specialized centres like Sanctus Healthcare Shriniwas Centre offer a more cost-effective solution. On a total cost basis, considering both direct and indirect costs, these senior citizen retirement homes in Pune are much more affordable than home care.
It is, in fact, more affordable than prolonged stays at hospitals or rehabilitation centres run by hospitals themselves. It is important to recognize the conflict of interest in such care centres, no matter what they might claim. Hospitals prefer to keep their ICUs occupied, and not all patients need to end up in an ICU.
At the Shriniwas Centre, we provide all required specialized nursing support for our patients and residents, such as blood sample collection, IV injections and fluids administration, catheterization, ECG, and specialized post-op/bed sore dressing. We look after patients who are dependent, paralyzed, unconscious, sometimes with tracheotomy, and those requiring continuous oxygen, BiPAP, and CPAP support, among other conditions. Moreover, our team in Pune offers speech therapy and occupational therapy to provide comprehensive care without conflicts of interest.
For those looking for senior citizen living in Pune, Sanctus Healthcare offers 24×7 supervised residential support at our Shriniwas Centre in Baner. Whether you need long-term care or short-term nursing support, our facilities provide expert assistance to ensure a comfortable and dignified life for senior citizens.
