The goal is to maintain the patient’s happiness, remove the burden from the community, and conserve the resources of the community and the company.
The home health company will change the policy from discontinuing service in the event that a patient cannot be left alone for a full 24-hour to a transition process, where they will help transition patients to having a full time in-home nurse or transition patients into nursing homes in other cases. To respect Mrs. R's autonomy she will be transitioned to having a full-time in-home nurse, experienced in Alzheimer's care, from a different care company who will make sure she regularly goes on outings and interacts with other Alzheimer’s patients. This also allows the company to remain loyal to their patients upholding the principle of fidelity, and will allow the company to do good as well, by transferring her to a more extensive care level while keeping her happy in her home. They won’t be harming the patient nor will they be burdening the company or community, because the patients will be cared for and the company and community will no longer be wasting resources trying to provide extra services.
