For example, hiring an acquaintance or a housekeeper who doesn&#039;t understand what diabetes is.<\/li>\n<li>The third mistake is not controlling your diet. Just a few days of improper eating habits can cause blood sugar to spiral out of control.<\/li>\n<li>The fourth mistake is neglecting psychological monitoring. Older adults with long-standing diabetes often experience loss of appetite, sadness, or a lack of motivation.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Compare three options that families typically consider.<\/h2>\n<h3>Hire someone you know or through an intermediary.<\/h3>\n<p>This is the quickest way. But the biggest risk is the lack of oversight. The caregiver is untrained, doesn&#039;t know how to handle situations, and if they quit unexpectedly, the family is left completely helpless.<\/p>\n<h3>Nursing home<\/h3>\n<p>There are systems available, but they are expensive and not always necessary for people with diabetes. Additionally, older people often live far from their families, which can easily lead to feelings of loneliness.<\/p>\n<h3>Home care with professional services<\/h3>\n<p>This is a balanced option. Older adults can stay at home, their families can still monitor them, and they receive the right support.<\/p>\n<h2>Cost \u2013 something everyone cares about.<\/h2>\n<p>Many people think that hiring a service will be expensive.<\/p>\n<p>But if we compare:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Nursing home: 15 \u2013 60 million VND\/month<\/li>\n<li>Daycare: 500,000 - 800,000 VND\/day (excluding transportation)<\/li>\n<li>Home care: approximately 40,000 - 70,000 VND\/hour<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With long-term care, the costs of home care are usually much easier to manage.<\/p>\n<p>More importantly, family doesn&#039;t have to sacrifice closeness.<\/p>\n<h2>Why do many families choose SAN?<\/h2>\n<p>It&#039;s not because SAN is cheaper, but because SAN gives them more peace of mind.<\/p>\n<p>The SAN girls:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>trained<\/li>\n<li>background checks are conducted.<\/li>\n<li>working according to procedures<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Additionally, the following is supported:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Take the elderly to the doctor.<\/li>\n<li>hospital care<\/li>\n<li>follow-up appointments<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/chamsocnguoibenh.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">SAN<\/a> It has also been selected as a partner by hospitals such as Hospital 175 and City International Hospital, which gives families more confidence.<\/p>\n<p>Diabetes isn&#039;t scary if it&#039;s properly controlled.
