The fact that your family is no longer hospitalized does not mean it has recovered all or that you are completely fine as might be thought of. The reasons for which he was discharged can be varied and not always related to its real chances of recovery (Translator's note: the resignation does not necessarily coincide with the attainment of the maximum recovery possible). A good rehabilitation service provides support, however, even beyond the 'endeavor because of the resignation or the patient comes into contact with structures that can provide additional rehabilitation services useful to continue in the path of recovery. In the area of \u200b\u200benvironmental adaptation, eg., This could involve the possibility that some service operator travels to the patient's home or make a very detailed interview about the housing situation. How many steps are there to reach the house? How far bedroom and bathroom? If the house is on several floors, you can move the bedroom floor? What kind of devices may require the person to perform normal activities of daily life and in safe conditions (eg in the bathroom)? It might be useful - before the resignation - the patient should go to spend a night of "evidence" to his house to highlight any issues to which there is still time to provide the first effective and permanent return (eg the provision of furniture, installation of ramps, etc.).. Make sure that the experts have not missed anything, and all information of which you have to help them frame the situation well.
Obviously a person who has limitations in movement, will require more 'attention than before. Using common sense can take action in advance. You're never quite sure about the permanence of disability or the outcome of rehabilitation, so obviously the first concern to which we will equip and physical disability. However, the difficulties are "invisible", ie those associated with cognitive emotional problems to represent the greater difficulty in returning home, even more than motor disability. Dealing with depression, emotional lability, bursts into tears at inappropriate moments often, the impulsiveness and personality changes, may require professional support. None of your previous life can prepare you to face all this, you will learn on the field and in the end you can say that I have learned to parry all the hits.
caregiver also have a limit. If you took care of someone and every day you have taken key decisions, be aware that you are weak, too. You have been hit by a shock, squeezed by threatening situations, and have acted under the impulse of your adrenaline to eat without thinking properly for days and relax ... you walked hand in hand with stress and you survived so you probably think of coming to terms with stress. Well! It 'time to meet a new form of stress! In this case, you probably will not hit with a brutal blow and acute (such as when your family has had a stroke), but rather torment you with repeated tapping until you fall down. Maybe you're falling down without realizing that your mental and physical well-being is daily being eroded by the situation. It 'important that you steady supply of your resources and understand that these do not have the resilience that you had before.
Treating eating habits regular. Go back to good food, healthy, including fresh fruits and vegetables. Drink plenty of water. Abandoned sandwiches and snacks distributors hospital. You will spend more time at home, from now on, and take the opportunity to abandon the bad habits that you have taken to survive in those days forced to stay at the hospital. Also, if your family is able to eat normally, also provide him a better diet. Slow down your pace. Rest is more important than to remove dust, exercise should take precedence over vacuuming. You will have much new responsibilities that will take away the time, then quickly learn to forgive and not to be if there is a little embarrassed 'wool under your couch.
Try to think positively. With your thoughts you can make your life better or worse. Do not stay attached to pessimistic thoughts or victims of "if only it had not happened ...". If you do not do it alone ask for help. Look for support groups, self-help or contact a trusted friend or even a professional counselor. Under the supervision of a physician may benefit from an antidepressant or anxiolytic treatment. Try not to feel shy or embarrassed to seek help or support in any form as it is likely this will save your mental wellbeing.
Caregivers and people with stroke, following their experience, they may have problems with their religious beliefs. In this case it is important to get outside help to guide you in this way to a newfound balance.
