"I was dragging my feet... If she had not made me feel comfortable and at ease, I probably would have not ever taken this step." - Lisa

Making the decision to start home health or hospice care is never easy.

In this video, Lisa shares how the American Premier team member who came to interview her and her mother made all the difference 💙
What changed everything:

✓ Very knowledgeable and welcoming
✓ Made Lisa feel comfortable and at ease
✓ Helped her feel confident about the decision

Lisa almost didn't take this step. But because one person took the time to truly listen, understand her hesitation, and help her feel confident her mother received the care she needed throughout Maricopa County.

This is what matters most when families are facing difficult healthcare decisions.
Our team doesn't just provide skilled nursing care we provide the compassion and understanding that helps families take the first step when it feels impossible.

"They're just getting old" might actually be undiagnosed thyroid disease.

January is Thyroid Awareness Month throughout Maricopa County and parts of Pinal County. 20 million Americans have thyroid disease, but 60% remain undiagnosed especially elderly women.
Symptoms blamed on "normal aging" that could be thyroid disease:
Hypothyroidism (underactive):

Fatigue and low energy
Weight gain despite eating less
Feeling cold all the time
Depression and mood changes
Memory problems and confusion
Constipation
Dry skin and hair loss
Muscle weakness

Hyperthyroidism (overactive):

Unexplained weight loss
Rapid or irregular heartbeat
Anxiety and irritability
Tremors in hands
Heat intolerance and sweating
Difficulty sleeping

Why diagnosis matters:
Untreated thyroid disease causes:

Accelerated cognitive decline (mimicking dementia)
Heart problems
Osteoporosis
Severe depression
Falls and fractures
Hospitalization

The good news:
Thyroid disease is:

Easy to diagnose (simple blood test)
Highly treatable (daily medication)
Reversible (symptoms improve dramatically)

When to request screening:
Ask doctor to test if your parent has:

Multiple "aging" symptoms appearing suddenly
Unexplained weight, energy, mood, or cognitive changes
New heart rhythm irregularities
Women over 60 (highest risk)

American Thyroid Association recommends:
Screening starting at age 35, every 5 years. Annual if high-risk or symptoms.
Don't accept "just getting old" without investigation. A simple blood test could restore energy, cognition, and quality of life.

American Premier's home health nurses often identify thyroid symptoms during assessmentscatching what busy doctors attribute to aging.

"What's the difference between home health, palliative care, and hospice?"

This is THE question families ask throughout Maricopa County and parts of Pinal County when navigating care for aging parents.
All three provide care at home, but they serve very different purposes:

HOME HEALTH: Getting Better at Home

For: Recently hospitalized or had surgery
Goal: Recovery and regaining independence
Includes: Skilled nursing, physical therapy, wound care, medication management
Duration: Weeks to months

PALLIATIVE CARE: Comfort While Still Treating

For: Serious illness causing difficult symptoms
Goal: Improve quality of life WHILE continuing curative treatment
Includes: Pain management, symptom relief, care coordination
Duration: Months to years

You do NOT stop treatment. Palliative care ADDS symptom management alongside cancer care, cardiology, or other treatments.

HOSPICE: Comfort & Dignity at End of Life

For: Life-limiting illness, approximately six months or less
Goal: Comfort and quality when cure is no longer the goal
Includes: ALL medical care for terminal illness medications, equipment, nursing, aide, chaplain, bereavement support
100% covered by Medicare

Hospice doesn't mean giving up hope it means redefining hope from cure to comfort and meaningful time together.

Why American Premier provides all three:
As your parent's needs change, you work with a team that already knows your family. No starting over. Seamless transitions through every stage.
Still unsure which service fits? Call American Premier. We help families navigate these decisions.

"My experience with grief creates empathy I can offer patients and their loved ones."

Meet Julia, our chaplain and bereavement coordinator throughout Maricopa County and parts of Pinal County. She shares what many families don't realize about
hospice care: it's not just about managing pain it's about honoring the whole person.

Julia describes the privilege of meeting patients who have lived full, wonderful lives and ensuring their last days include:

Dignity and comfort
Pain-free care
Spiritual support
Living their final days to the very fullest

What you might not know: Chaplain services are INCLUDED in hospice care. Julia doesn't replace your family's faith community she complements it with spiritual support specifically trained for end-of-life needs.
She meets spiritual needs for both your loved one AND your family during this profound transition.

Her words "It's such an honor and I really enjoy the people" remind us that hospice professionals witness the culmination of entire lifetimes, offering presence, dignity,
and spiritual comfort when it matters most.
If your family is navigating end-of-life decisions, spiritual care isn't an afterthought. It's ensuring your loved one's final chapter honors their whole life story.

Thank you, Julia, for the honor you bring to this sacred work.

January 12 = National Pharmacist Day. Here's why your parent's pharmacist matters more than you think.

Throughout Maricopa County and parts of Pinal County, seniors over 65 take an average of 4-5 prescription medications daily, plus over-the-counter supplements.
That creates serious risks:

Drug interactions (medications working against each other)
Duplicate therapy (multiple doctors prescribing similar meds)
Inappropriate medications for elderly
Timing conflicts
Dangerous side effects

Your pharmacist isn't just counting pills. They're your medication safety expert who:

Reviews ALL medications for dangerous interactions
Catches prescriptions inappropriate for elderly
Provides counseling on timing, food interactions, side effects
Offers immunizations (flu, pneumonia, shingles)
Coordinates with doctors when issues arise
Suggests cost-saving alternatives

Use ONE pharmacy for all prescriptions (enables complete interaction screening)
Create a relationship ask questions, request consultations
Share complete medication list including OTC and supplements
Request medication reviews annually
Ask about medication synchronization (refill everything same day monthly)

Home health connection:
American Premier's nurses work closely with pharmacists ensuring medication regimens support rather than complicate patient care goals.
Today, thank a pharmacist. They're preventing complications you might never know about.

"I'm the one that was inflicting the pain, which was very difficult for me."

Lisa Liveringhouse shares one of the hardest truths about family caregiving throughout Maricopa County and parts of Pinal County.

Sometimes loving your parent means causing them pain.
Repositioning to prevent bedsores. Cleaning wounds. Necessary care that hurts even when done with gentleness.

Lisa describes the emotional weight of being the one inflicting pain on her mother, Wanda. And how American Premier's team helped her carry that weight.

Through the CNA who bathed her mother, nurses George and Joyce, and friendships with chaplain Julia, Dan, and Teresa, Lisa found something critical:
Emotional support that convinced her she wasn't causing harm.
Her mother knew everything Lisa did came from love.
This is what caregivers struggle with alone:

Guilt over necessary care causing discomfort
Anguish of being both comfort and pain
Questioning whether you can continue

What made the difference for Lisa? A team that:

Recognized her emotional struggle
Validated her feelings
Convinced her love, not harm, defined her actions
Developed genuine friendships
Made it possible to continue

Professional hospice care isn't just managing the patient's pain. It's supporting family caregivers through the emotional pain of providing that care.Without this support, caregivers burn out, collapse, or stop caregiving entirely.

If you're experiencing caregiver guilt about causing discomfort during necessary care: You're not alone. You don't have to carry that emotional weight without support.
Thank you, Lisa, for this vulnerable truth. Your story helps other families know they're not alone.
