Psychologists play a vital role in providing assessment, diagnosis, therapy, support, education, and crisis intervention services to promote the mental health and well-being of patients receiving home care and their caregivers. Below are some key roles:
Psychologists conduct comprehensive assessments to evaluate the mental health status of your loved one receiving home care. This may include assessing cognitive functioning, emotional well-being, and any underlying psychological issues.
Based on assessment results, our psychologists diagnose mental health conditions and develop tailored treatment plans. These plans may involve therapy, counseling, behavioral interventions.
Psychologists provide patient and family therapy sessions within the home care setting. They offer evidence-based interventions to address a wide range of mental health concerns, such as depression, anxiety, trauma, grief, and adjustment difficulties related to illness or disability.
For patient experiencing cognitive impairments due to conditions such as dementia or traumatic brain injury, our psychologists provide cognitive rehabilitation interventions. These interventions aim to improve cognitive functioning, enhance memory and problem-solving skills, and promote independence in daily activities.
Psychologists offer support and counseling to caregivers who may experience stress, anxiety, or depression while caring for their loved ones at home. They provide coping strategies, emotional support, and guidance on self-care to help caregivers maintain their well-being.
Psychologists are trained to respond to mental health crises that may occur in the home care setting, such as severe agitation, or emotional breakdowns. They provide immediate support, stabilization, and referral to appropriate resources or emergency services as needed.
