Issues and Challenges
Steve is a fifty-year old man, who was involved in a one car automobile accident one year before resulting in a permanent head injury. Steve's father was in his late 70's, and he was concerned that if something were to happen to him, Steve would be institutionalized. Through assessment process IKOR® RN Patient Advocate identified that Steve's father is a sole care provider and needs outside caregiver. He was provided a routine respite from the physical and emotional toll of being the sole care provider. IKOR® also ensured Steve's emotional wellbeing through observing his acceptance and comfort. IKOR® maintains Steve's medical records.


IKOR ApproachSM
Steve was assigned an IKOR® RN Patient Advocate who completed an initial assessment thereby understanding Steve's current needs and living environment. After compiling all of the necessary information, the RN Patient Advocate, created a strategic plan of action. Some information was used immediately to address safety issues within the home. Steve's father was encouraged to begin the use of an outside caregiver for two hours a week. In doing so, Steve became acclimated to a new person in his world, without the crisis of the loss of his father. Steve's father also saw an immediate benefit. His father was provided a routine respite from the physical and emotional toll of being the sole care provider, while at the same time observing Steve acceptance and comfort in the situation.


Case Outcome
Both Steve and his father carry a laminated IKOR® card with printed instructions to contact IKOR® immediately in case of emergency. IKOR® maintains Steve's medical records, including the names of all treating physicians, for that moment when IKOR® will be called upon to implement the pre-agreed plan.
