CASE STUDY: AROMATHERAPY IN LONG-TERM CARE
I began working with an ambitious and compassionate director of nursing (DON) for a large long-term care center in Minnesota. She was interested in using essential oils and blends with their population. They had already attempted some aromatherapy on their own but with mixed results. A full floor was devoted to memory care residents. Several residents had advanced Alzheimer’s disease and dementia, exhibiting extreme symptoms that were not responding well to the current medication protocols.
5 WAYS AROMATHERAPY SUPPORTS HOSPICE CARE
Aromatherapy is a gentle and pleasant way to address the many things that can come up during the dying process. Many of the experiences a passing loved one experiences families and loved ones are likely also going through. Anxiety, insomnia, anxiety, grief, fear and general discomfort, all rear their head during this transitional time. Here are 5 ways aromatherapy can ease the way, bridging us from one phase to the next.
WHY ESSENTIAL OILS?
Natural
Essential oils are natural products sourced from plants. Natural products are sustainable and our body prefers them. In today’s world of constant interfacing with electronics and synthetics, essential oils can instantly bring us back to nature no matter where we are.
Safe
An established safety record means aromatherapy brings value to many individuals and markets. Unlike artificial products, high quality essential oils contribute to our health and wellbeing in a positive way. Aromatherapy is gentle and safe for children and the elderly.
Effective
The therapeutic value of essential oils is rooted in history and science. Simply smelling them produces a profound impact on our body, mind and soul. Aromatherapy is not only a staple in the modern home medicine cabinet but also growing as a powerful resource for industries including eldercare, hospitality and spa/fitness.
