Clear Conversation
Your first conversation with Bloomfield gives us a chance to understand your loved one and what your family needs. We discuss their daily routine, preferences, level of independence, and the type of support they may need at home. This is also an opportunity to ask questions and understand what the next steps will look like.
In-Home Assessment
A registered nurse visits your loved one at home to understand their care needs in their everyday environment. The RN assesses their daily requirements and makes a care recommendation based on what they need to remain safe, comfortable, and supported at home.
Build the Care Plan
The RN's recommendation and your loved one's needs guide the development of a personalized care plan. We discuss the recommended support with the client and family so everyone has a clear understanding of the care before it begins. The plan may address the schedule, daily support, and specific routines that matter to your loved one.
Begin Personalized Care
Once the plan is established, a trained Bloomfield caregiver provides the agreed-upon support in the comfort of your loved one's home. Care can include personal care, mobility support, meal preparation, daily routines, companionship, and other appropriate services. Bloomfield also offers 24/7 care and live-in care for families who need more continuous support.
Stay Informed as Care Continues
For clients in Anne Arundel County, Baltimore County, Howard County, and surrounding Maryland communities who choose Remote Patient Monitoring, Bloomfield provides this on demand. When you choose RPM, Bloomfield Homecare will use wearable devices during care visits to capture health information. This includes blood pressure, weight, and glucose. These readings are uploaded to a secure dashboard after each caregiver visit, helping track changes in your loved one’s health over time. The information can also give their primary physician additional insight to support informed decisions about ongoing care.
