Ezra Home Care: Compassion for the Mentally Ill

Massachusett's first lady, Diane Patrick spoke in front of more than 500 attendees at the Schwartz Center's Celebration of Women In Healthcare event.

“Depression was something that only wealthy people were allowed to have. “It meant one of two things: either you were ‘crazy’ or you were self-focused and narcissistic and you spent your time with overpaid, enabling psychiatrists – and neither was acceptable.”

“The truth is that mental health just doesn’t get discussed very often in polite company, and we know why,” she said.  “There is a stigma attached to mental illness, and people are embarrassed to talk about it.  It is perceived as a weakness of the mind, of the spirit, and of one’s character.  We don’t acknowledge it in our day-to-day lives, and often we don’t even know how to.  It’s unspeakable.”

24-hour Care for the Elderly in Their Own Home

We all age, whether we like it, or not, and while it’s not always the case, we tend to become less and less independent with age. It is important to discuss this issue with our loved ones to act appropriately if we recognize that they cannot take care of themselves anymore. If that proves to be true it is important to create a good care plan and discuss viable options — one of them 24-hour home care.
