Visiting Private Duty Nursing
Working with patients’ and physicians, our goal is to develop and implement a treatment plan, which can be delivered in the home environment. We strive to allow our patients improve their health and become as indepedent as possible.
All PEKO’s Healthcare & Consulting Services, Inc. personnel are fully trained, certified, and maintains current licensure for the appropriate positions in compliance with all governmental agency requirements.
Sometimes government aid can help offset some of these expenses. Look into your options and speak to your local agency on aging if there is one.
Surgery & Wound Care
There are a lot of things to think about when preparing for major surgery. Although every surgical recovery is different, the goals of home-based clinical care post-surgery include patient and family involvement, shared decision-making, and flexibility around changes in plans to meet your needs.
Also, it’s not always possible to schedule your surgery in advance. You should take steps to understand beforehand how long your recovery may take, what you will and will not be able to do, and what help you will need while you are home.
Home health care is personalized to fit the needs of your home and personal preferences, based on a physician’s instructions. Within 24 hours, PEKO can have the post-operative home health care services you need available in your home.
Diabetic & Other Medication Management
We provide well-coordinated and comprehensive medical care to individuals in the comforts of their home. Our highly skilled healthcare professionals manage every aspect of patients’ health-related needs.
There are many technologies available which can help keep track of the elderly, make sure that they are moving around and thus safe and are taking their medications. For example there are GPS trackers and medicine boxes that light up when medicines need to be taken. This helps allow them to stay in their homes for longer.
You can also make the home safer by installing anti-scald devices to protect sensitive older skin, carbon monoxide detectors, special smoke detectors with strobe lights or vibration to wake up the elderly (many elderly cannot hear conventional smoke detectors) and grab bars in showers and near toilets.
Companion Services
PEKO Healthcare also provides companionship services, which includes: safety monitoring and supervision, recreational activities and crafts, even escort service for social outings. Individualized care plans are available with 24 hour seven days a week live-in care, short or long term including holidays provided by one caregiver.
Take advantage of an affordable one flat daily rate as opposed to hourly rates. No hidden fees! The supervision of all cases is to assure quality and continuity of care; respite care, dementia care, and much more!
Live-in Home Care
Lifestyle changes and capabilities can shift suddenly due to sickness or injury.
For instance, each year millions of older people — those 65 and older — fall. In fact, one out of three older people fall each year (with an estimated 2.5 million requiring some form of hospitalization), and falling once doubles your chances of falling again. Falls can cause broken bones in the wrist, arm, ankle, hip fractures, and even head injuries. These injuries can make it hard for a person to get around, do everyday activities, or even live on their own.
When these changes occur, your loved one still deserves to have all the comforts of home – and that’s exactly where we’ll care for them. Our service goal is to assist mature adults and individuals with disabilities to maintain their optimum level of functioning to enhance the quality of life and prevent premature placement in a restrictive care environment. We can accomplish this by offering an array of 24/7 non-medical home support services customized for each individual.
We carefully screen our staff with extensive background checks, including motor vehicle record history, social security validation, and diligent reference checks.
Meal Preparation & Housekeeping
Several personal care options are available for maintaining the home environment.
Our homemaking professionals are able to accomplish and/or provide supervision with: meal preparation and clean up, ensuring the freshness of foods and beverages, light housekeeping and garbage removal, laundry and linen washing, medication reminders, accompanying medical appointments, nutrition monitoring, grocery and general shopping, errand services, bathing, grooming, toileting, incontinence care, walking, transferring and positioning of clients, safety monitoring and supervision, recreational activities and crafts, and escorting clients on social outings.

Geriatric Evaluation
We will work with you to evaluate the level of care that is necessary to improve your loved one’s quality of life. We offer a variety of services to give our clients the specific care they need. If they do not yet need a home caregiver or the home caregiver cannot perform these tasks, help them around the house. For example, help them with chores such as cleaning, laundry or gardening.
One of the foremost senior health issues of the day is prescription medications. Whether the issue is money or drug interaction, every senior citizen needs to be careful when taking medication. Make sure you physician knows all of the medication you are taking because you want to avoid any drug interaction reactions.

Transportation Services
As individuals age, they generally accrue a bevy of medical appointments and/or tasks that accompany their every day lifestyle. At PEKO, our professionals are equipped to assist our clients in accomplishing every goal that is a part of their daily life.
For instance, most people should have their eyes checked by an eye doctor at least once a year, and be sure to update your eyeglasses if needed. Impairment in this area can hinder one’s ability to travel on their own, or even accomplish tasks within the home.
Adding an escort or general caregiver to your loved one’s routine can aid them in the completion of their daily goals and improve their quality of life.
