Neutropenic diet guide for cancer patients: Learn which foods are safe, what to avoid, and how 7 Day
By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care July 17, 2025
Neutropenic Diet for Cancer Patients: Safe In-Home Meal Prep Guide At 7 Day Home Care, we believe that truly understanding the details of neutropenic diet meal preparation is essential to delivering exceptional care—and to giving families peace of mind. For cancer patients with weakened immune systems, every aspect of food safety matters, from how produce is washed and peeled to how meats are stored, cooked, and served. When a home care agency takes the time to train its caregivers in the specifics of the neutropenic diet—including proper sanitation, cross-contamination prevention, and adherence to dietary restrictions—it shows a deep commitment not just to clinical accuracy, but to the patient’s dignity, comfort, and wellbeing. Families can relax knowing that their loved one’s nutritional needs are met safely and attentively, without added stress or risk. This attention to detail transforms what might otherwise be a stressful chapter into one of trust, consistency, and compassionate care—creating an overall experience that feels supportive, safe, and genuinely uplifting.
coronary artery calcium score
By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care July 15, 2025
What is the Life Expectancy with a High Calcium Score? (CAC Score Risk Explained) According to Mayo Clinic "a coronary calcium scan is a special computerized tomography (CT) scan of the heart. It looks for calcium deposits in the heart arteries. A buildup of calcium can narrow the arteries and reduce blood flow to the heart. A coronary calcium scan may show coronary artery disease before you have symptoms. Coronary calcium scan results can help determine the risk of heart attacks or strokes. Results from the scan may be used to plan or change treatment for coronary artery disease." The University of Maryland Medical Center states "the coronary arteries are the vessels that supply oxygen-rich blood to the heart. Plaque — made of fat, calcium and other substances — can build up and narrow or close the arteries. To detect this build-up, your physician may order cardiac calcium scoring — a test that is also known as coronary artery calcium (CAC) scoring, a heart scan or calcium score." Understanding what a coronary calcium score means is essential for taking control of your heart health—especially if you're at risk for coronary artery disease or already managing early warning signs. But what does a high calcium score really indicate about your life expectancy? Is it possible to live a long, healthy life with severe coronary calcification? In the sections below, we’ll break down exactly what your calcium score says about your future, how to lower your risk, what foods to avoid, and how home care can support you or your loved one in managing cardiovascular health at home. Keep reading to get clear, expert-backed answers to the most common questions about CAC scores, life expectancy, and what to do next.
high blood pressure correlates to dementia
By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care July 9, 2025
Is There a Correlation Between High Blood Pressure and Dementia? High blood pressure, also known as hypertension, is a major risk factor for developing dementia, including both vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. When blood pressure remains elevated over time, it damages the delicate blood vessels in the brain, reducing blood flow and increasing the risk of strokes, microbleeds, and white matter lesions—all of which are associated with cognitive decline. Studies show that unmanaged hypertension, especially in midlife, significantly increases the likelihood of developing dementia later in life by impairing brain structure and function. Chronic high blood pressure can also accelerate memory loss, confusion, and other symptoms in those already diagnosed with dementia. Fortunately, high blood pressure is a modifiable condition, and lifestyle changes such as a heart-healthy diet, regular exercise, stress reduction, and proper medical management can dramatically lower dementia risk. For seniors and their families, understanding the connection between hypertension and brain health is essential for prevention, early intervention, and long-term care planning.

Home care agencies can help you get certain types of expert, compassionate care in your home instead of in a hospital or other facility."

What is an Assignment of Benefits for Long Term Care Insurance? An Assignment of Benefits (AOB) for long-term care insurance is a legal arrangement that allows a policyholder to authorize a licensed home care agency to bill the insurance company directly for covered services, eliminating the need for the client or family to pay upfront and seek reimbursement. This streamlined billing process helps families avoid the stress and delay often associated with submitting claims, while ensuring care can begin without financial barriers. AOB is especially valuable for seniors receiving home health aide services, personal care, or live-in care, as it reduces out-of-pocket costs and administrative burden. At 7 Day Home Care, we work directly with all major long-term care insurance providers—including American Heritage, Brighthouse, CNA, Genworth, John Hancock, Lincoln Financial, Mutual of Omaha, New York Life, Northwestern Mutual, NYSUT-HealthSmart, and UNUM—to verify policy benefits, complete all necessary documentation, and manage the entire claims process, allowing families to focus on what matters most: high-quality, uninterrupted care at home.
caregiver embracing woman with dementia
By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care June 18, 2025
Did you know that according to Neuroscience News a recent study found a genetic variant - H63D in the HFE gene - more than doubles the risk of dementia in older men? Researchers analyzing data from over 12,000 Australians aged 70 and above discovered that men carrying two copies of this variant were 2.39 times more likely to develop dementia compared to those without it. News headlines, firsthand caregiving experiences, and new research studies about dementia often spark a wave of urgent and sometimes overwhelming questions for families. Whether it’s a scientific breakthrough linking a gene to increased dementia risk, or a viral story about a family’s caregiving journey, these real-world moments prompt people to wonder: What are the early signs? Could this happen to my loved one? How do we get help? As awareness grows, so does the need for clear, trustworthy information. That’s why understanding the top questions people ask about dementia is more important than ever—for families, caregivers, and anyone navigating the complex journey of memory loss.
diabetes causes headaches and dizziness
By Brian Callahan 7 Day Home Care June 9, 2025
People Ask What are the Top 15 Symptoms of Diabetes? The 15 t op symptoms of diabetes include frequent urination, excessive thirst, increased hunger, unexplained weight loss, fatigue or extreme tiredness, blurred vision, slow-healing sores or cuts, frequent infections, tingling or numbness in the hands and feet, dry or itchy skin, dark patches of skin (especially in folds or creases), irritability or mood changes, sexual dysfunction, recurring yeast infections, and headaches or brain fog. Not everyone will experience all of these symptoms, but noticing even a few may be an early warning sign that blood sugar levels are out of balance and should be checked by a healthcare provider. Recognizing the early symptoms of diabetes is crucial because it allows for timely diagnosis, early treatment, and the prevention of serious complications such as heart disease, kidney failure, vision loss, and nerve damage. Many signs - like frequent urination, fatigue, or blurred vision—can be overlooked or misattributed to aging or stress, delaying care and increasing health risks. By paying attention to these warning signs and seeking medical guidance early, individuals can better manage their blood sugar levels, make informed lifestyle changes, and significantly reduce the likelihood of long-term damage. Early detection is not just about treatment - it's about preserving quality of life and avoiding irreversible health outcomes. 7 Day Home Care provides low cost private pay in-home care services throughout NYC - Manhattan , Queens , Brooklyn , and Long Island , New York. To learn more about our home health aide care services for individuals with diabetes, please call 516-408-0034 to schedule your free consultation.
