护理人员可以采取哪些措施来提高客户安全？

[What can caregivers do to improve client safety?]
 

1. 预防跌倒危险：环顾四周是否有潜在的跌倒危险（注意人行道杂乱，用胶带或防滑背衬固定松散的地毯，立即清洁溢出物，注意地毯/地毯和地板之间的上翻边缘）Removing fall hazards: Take a look around for potential fall hazards (clutter in walkways, securing loose rugs with tape or slip-resistant backing, immediately clean spills, watch-out for upturned edges between carpets / rugs and the floor)

2. 充足的照明：适当的照明对于防止家中发生事故和跌倒起着至关重要的作用（对于老年人尤其危险）Adequate lighting: Proper lighting plays a crucial role in preventing accidents & falls at home (especially dangerous for seniors)

3. 了解紧急情况下该怎么做：在紧急医疗情况下，请拨打 911。然后，联系您在Medtec(阳光护理)的组长和紧急联系人。了解建筑物内发生火灾时的紧急出口。Knowing what to do in emergencies: In emergency medical situations, call 911.  Afterwards, alert your MedTec scheduler and the emergency contacts.  Know the emergency exits in the building in case of fire.

4. 自家护理人员的房屋改造：伊利诺伊州老龄化部门有补助资金，可以帮助负担您亲人的房屋改造费用。（例如：浴室扶手、购买防滑垫、将房间改造成一楼、安装坡道以方便出入等） 。如果您需要这类的有帮助，请联系您的家人案主的案件经理并要求进行房屋改造！Home modifications for family caregivers: The Illinois Department of Aging has grants which can help pay for home modifications for your loved one (handrails in bathroom, purchasing non-slip mats, adapting rooms to be on the ground floor, installing ramps for easy access).   If you think these would be helpful, contact your loved one's case manager and ask for a home modificiation!
