What is the Necessity of a Critical Care Nurse?

 Critical care is intensive special healthcare given to patients with life-threatening illnesses and injuries. During the time or after surgery, the patient and the family members will experience a fatigue period due to the serious illness and injury caused to their beloved ones, such as heart attack, poisoning, pneumonia, surgical complications, premature birth, and stroke. Critical care is provided whenever and wherever someone’s life is in peril. Furthermore, most hospitals provide critical care under various names such as highly specialized intensive care units, coronary care units (CCU), and intensive therapy units (ITU). Highly professional and well-equipped nursing care services from IHHC use their unique expertise in elderly care services to support and provide care for patients under critical care. We've discussed the significance of intensive care on this blog.

The significance of the intensive care nurse:

In the critical care units, patients will be equipped with catheters, dialysis machines, feeding tubes, intravenous (IV) tubes, machines for vital signs, oxygen therapy, tracheostomy tubes, and ventilators. Since taking care of patients under critical care requires adequate care and attention, home health services in Chennai are the best solution because the fatality rates are down, the time on ventilators, arrhythmias, and hypotensive attacks is much less rare, renal failure happens less often, catheterizations of the central venous and pulmonary arteries have grown in number, and the number of arterial blood-gas analyses has decreased because of the intensive care nurses provided by IHHC. Patients are taken care of by certified nursing attendants in Chennai at home by offering services such as

  • Sanitizing the areas where patients are likely to use

  • Keep checking in around the clock to administer injections and check on daily progression.

  • Keeping track of vital signs from medical equipment and dressing the wounds of the patients

  • Taking care of the patient's basic needs and keeping them independent in their familiar environment is key.

  • Keeping track of their diagnostic tests and test reports such as X-rays, EKGs, or CT scans

Patients in intensive care must be continuously monitored at all times. Home care services provide additional monitoring and management capabilities without posing a hindrance. In India, IHHC is one of the most well-known providers of home healthcare services.
