Hospital Patient Sitter Services in Palm Beach & Broward

• Fall Prevention

  For some individuals, a fracture can lead to other serious health problems such as injury or even disability. Our caregivers are trained to prevent falls by keeping the environment safe, and providing mobility assistance.

• Health Vitals Monitoring

  Measuring the patient's basic functions, physical & mental health, and overall vitals can provide valuable insights into their condition and progress.

• Companionship

  Bedridden patients at hospitals tend to spend a considerable amount of time in solitude, which can have a negative effect on the patient's mental wellbeing. Our caregivers cultivate meaningful relationships with their patients to ensure that they do not feel alone during their stay at the hospital.

• Self Care & Feeding

  Some individuals may have limited independence and lack the ability for self-care, making the hospital stay harder than necessary. Our services include hygiene care, feeding, and keeping you or a loved one warm.

  “Before Natalia Powell had her own agency, Royal Oaks Home Care, she had come to my attention because of her excellent reputation as an experienced caregiver among people in my mother’s community. She was universally recommended by many of my mother’s friends. Since Natalia is so busy running her own agency, she is less available in that capacity than she had been in the past. However, while I was looking for high quality help for my mother last year, she assisted me on numerous occasions, and it became clear to me why she is so highly regarded. Natalia is an exceptionally responsible, hard-working, compassionate person. She is constantly busy when she is working, and is not the type that would ever feel comfortable sitting around. I always felt that my mother was completely safe in Natalia’s competent hands. It has also become apparent to me that she expects the same high standards from the people she hires as caregivers in her agency. Natalia put me in touch with a caregiver, who has been working with my mom and is an extremely adept caregiver. I feel equally secure leaving my mom in her capable hands. Like Natalia, the caregiver is diligent, experienced, conscientious, and caring. I am deeply grateful to have had these two skilled, trustworthy people working with my beloved mother.”

  “I want to thank you for the time you spent with my aunt in the past three months. You were always courteous and understanding. There was never any questioning but always a genuine willingness to help. You were always punctual and concerned about her health and I appreciate everything you have done. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.”

  “Natalia from Royal Oaks provided care for my Dad’s significant other before she passed and is now providing care for my Dad. While many agencies can provide care, it’s Natalia’s caring about the people she works for that sets her apart. With my Dad in FL, and all his kids living in MA, it’s comforting to know Natalia is in my Dad’s life.”

The Qualities That Make Our Competent Caregivers

As with any professional career in the health care field, there are certain key attributes that make one best suited for their role. We believe the following attributes are essential for hospital sitters:

• Effective communication

  Communication is a cornerstone in any care-plan that involves hospital observation, and arguably in any field in the health care industry. Our caregivers are experts in communicating the right information at the right time to the right person.

• Observation skills

  The smallest details can make the biggest difference when staying at the hospital for long periods of time. Our caregivers are trained to fully understand what, when, and why certain things operate the way they do.

• Patience

  Caring for another human being is a very difficult mission that requires hours of care, empathy, and most importantly: patience.

• Auxiliary medical skills

  Even though hospital sitters provide non-medical assistance, knowing how to provide medical skills should there be an emergency can potentially save lives. Our caregivers are fully certified CNA and HHA, and possess various types of certificates such as CPR.

• Empathy

  Compassion and the ability to read another person’s needs and wants is at the core of a hospital sitter. One must be able to not only understand how the patient feels, thinks and wants, but also to place themselves in their shoes to truly understand the gravity of their situation.

• Flexibility

  Keeping up with a flexible schedule and providing services on an as-needed basis is essential in ensuring that all patients are cared for at all times.
