Geriatrics care

Caring for Our Elderly with Compassion and Dignity

At Light a Candle Health Initiative, we understand the unique health challenges faced by the elderly and are dedicated to providing comprehensive and compassionate geriatric care. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for older adults by ensuring they receive the care, support, and respect they deserve.

Caregivers play a critical role in the well-being of the elderly. We provide resources, training, and support to help caregivers manage their responsibilities and maintain their own well-being.

Here’s how we focus on geriatrics care:

Comprehensive Health Services

Holistic Care for Older Adults We offer a wide range of health services tailored to meet the needs of elderly individuals. Our approach is holistic, addressing not just physical health but also mental and emotional well-being. Our Comprehensive Health Services Include:
  • Primary Care: Regular health check-ups, management of chronic conditions, and preventive care.
  • Specialized Medical Services: Access to specialists in geriatrics, cardiology, endocrinology, and more.
  • Mental Health Support: Counseling, therapy, and support groups to address depression, anxiety, and cognitive decline.

Home-Based Care

Convenient and Comfortable Care
For many elderly individuals, traveling to healthcare facilities can be challenging. Our home-based care services ensure that they receive necessary medical attention in the comfort of their own homes.

Our Home-Based Care Services Include:
  • Medical Visits: Regular home visits by healthcare professionals to monitor health and provide treatments.
  • Nursing Services: Skilled nursing care for post-surgical recovery, chronic disease management, and wound care.
