DOMINICA’S HEALTHCARE SERVICES HAS RECEIVED A BOOST WITH THE LAUNCH
OF A NEW HEALTHCARE SERVICE FOR INDIVIDUALS AND FAMILIES IN THE
COMFORT OF THEIR HOMES
With its motto “Bringing Compassionate Healthcare to You,” Demers Care Services
(DCS) launches a new option in Dominica for accessing healthcare services. DCS will
provide nursing and other health-related services to individuals, families, and groups in
the comfort of their own setting.
Recognizing the importance of individual responsibility for health and the right to access
to quality healthcare services, Demers Care Services will bridge the gap for those who
do not require institutionalized care. The service ensures that care is not compromised
due to the absence of hospitalization.
Demers Care Services offers a range of services tailored to meet diverse needs,
including, but not limited to:
- Administration of IM and IV medication
- Alzheimer’s and Dementia Care
- Continuous day and night care
- Diabetic foot care
- Dressings of wounds and ulcers
- Meeting hygienic needs
- Periodic blood pressure and glucose monitoring
- Post-operative care
- Rehabilitative care (e.g., post-stroke)
- Routine doctor and nurse visits at home
Co-founder of DCS, Denise M. Edwards, hails this service as a dream come true, embodying her deep belief that everyone deserves compassionate care. She is
motivated by one of her favorite nurse theorists who proposed that the unique function
of the nurse is to help individuals to do those things that they would have done unaided
if they had the ability so to do. Mrs. Edwards reaffirms that providing compassionate
care is a rewarding experience for both the carers and those who are being cared for.
Demers Care Services encourages those needing care without hospitalization to reach
out for an initial assessment. Contact can be made via phone at +767-275-CARE (2273)
or through email at 767demers@gmail.com.
Demers Care Services is committed to providing compassionate and comprehensive
healthcare services tailored to the unique needs of each individual, ensuring comfort,
dignity, and peace of mind for both patients and their families
