636 caregivers with Stroke experience found near Joliet
Strokes occur when a lack of oxygen causes sudden brain cell death. The oxygen deficiency is caused by either a blockage or tear in an artery supplying blood to the brain. Signs of a stroke include sudden loss of feeling and movement in one limb or one side of the body, as well as the loss of vision, balance, and consciousness. A stroke is also usually characterized by a sudden fall and vomiting, and is classified as a medical emergency. After an immediate hospital visit, stroke recovery requires assistance with daily activities, mobility, medications, and communication. Following a stroke, individuals may experience changes in memory, movement, appetite and eating ability, bladder or bowel function, sleep pattern, or judgment. To further the recovery process, caregivers should provide adequate social interaction to help individuals return to normalcy.

I had experienced.taking care.of elderly with different health issues such as Alzheimers, Dementia, diabetis, heart diseases (ie. CHF), Lung or respiratory disease, Stroke, non-ambulatory, bed bound elderly, etc. I assist them with their activities of daily living, prepare meals, laundry, do light housekeeping, medication reminder, assist with their errands and there were some elderly who asked me to organize their bills, do grocery and run other errands for them. I was not only a caregiver.but also a personal assistant. I am proud of being a caregiver because I know I make a difference in the lives of the elderly and I become part of the last journey of their lives.
