If your elderly loved one has recently been diagnosed with hypocalcemia, a health condition that indicates low levels of calcium, she may be at risk for osteoporosis. The body needs calcium for normal cell function and bone structure; in cases of extremely low levels of calcium, the bones become brittle and doctors usually discover hypocalcemia when patients are admitted to the hospital for stroke, brain injury, bronchitis, asthma, congenital heart disease, emphysema, and other cardiopulmonary disorders. In advanced stages of hypocalcemia, the person develops calcium deficiency disease, osteoporosis, and osteopenia. You can prevent this health condition from progressing by hiring a live-in caregiver who will prepare meals rich in calcium and assist with other chores around the house. A-1 Home Care offers exceptional 24-hour senior care in Covina and surrounding cities.
