The holidays are about bringing generations together. But for families with elderly relatives or homebound loved ones, this season brings anxiety about exposure to Flu, RSV, and COVID-19.
Seniors are more vulnerable to respiratory illnesses, and mobility issues can make getting them to a doctor difficult and stressful.
Why House Calls Are Essential for the Elderly
Dragging an elderly parent to an urgent care center exposes them to a waiting room full of other sick patients. It’s uncomfortable, risky, and unnecessary. Sickday’s model is built for this exact scenario. We bring hospital-grade urgent care to the living room.
Our Senior-Focused Services Include:
- Comfort-First Care: We treat patients in their favorite chair or bed.
- Comprehensive Testing: Immediate results for respiratory viruses to prevent spread to the rest of the family.
- Clear Communication: We explain diagnoses and treatment plans clearly to both the patient and family members.
If a loved one wakes up feeling unwell before the big family dinner, don’t panic. Book a 90-minute response visit and ensure everyone stays safe this season.
