SHOW NOTES EPISODE 33

Tina Randolph: Home-Health Care Providers

Host: Dr. Angela Mazza, DO

Co-host: Dawn Sheffield

 

I’m Dr. Angela Mazza, D.O., a thyroid, endocrine, and metabolism specialist with a private practice in Central Florida.  My goal for this podcast is to define and demystify the thyroid gland, and thyroid-related medical conditions.  By providing information in an easy-to-understand format, we hope to help patients better understand the ways in which their bodies work, and to help them thrive.   

 Here’s some of what we covered today, not necessarily in this order: 

·        What services may be available;

·        The importance of respite care;

·        Where might patients be seen?

·        How crucial it can be to seek outside help; 

·        How patients and caregivers might be matched;

·        The potential benefits of in-home (and in-facilty) care services;

·        Why families and patients may resist seeking in-home assistance;

·        How hard it can be to care for a patient in the home without assistance;

·        How all the care-givers can work together as a team to accomplish care goals;

·        And best of all, we learned that we CAN impact our thyroid health!
