NEW YORK - Washingtoner -- The pandemic has had a significant impact on the healthcare industry, and in-home care services have become more important than ever. Marsha Gay Reynolds, MPH, a managing director and well-known voice in the in-home care industry, recently shared her thoughts with VoiceNews on how the pandemic has changed and will continue to change the landscape of these essential services.

Reynolds believes the pandemic has provided unprecedented access to in-home care, offering more options and opportunities than ever before. Technology such as telehealth has become more widely used during this crisis, enabling doctors to provide care over the phone or through video calls.

In-home care providers are being encouraged to take safety precautions to protect both their clients and themselves from Covid-19. These include implementing social distancing protocols, wearing masks in public or when visiting clients' homes, washing hands frequently, and refraining from touching the face. Additionally, some companies now require caregivers to be certified or specialize in certain areas.

Marsha Reynolds anticipates that after the pandemic, in-home care will become increasingly popular and caregivers should prioritize services that address physical wellbeing as well as emotional needs. This could include assistance with basic hygiene, providing nutritious meals, monitoring vital signs, medical aid, transportation assistance and activities designed to foster socialization.

Specialistized home care services provide tailored programs for specific medical conditions or needs, creating personalized plans that address clients' physical, emotional, and mental wellbeing. Telehealth and remote monitoring can be especially helpful to rural clients by providing them with easier access to medical specialists.

Marsha Reynolds believes the future of in-home care is bright with plenty of room for growth and improvement within this field. With innovation and technology, in-home care can provide safe and inclusive options for individuals in need.
