Our caregivers often become lifelong friends with their clients, developing deep relationships through conversation, eating and running errands together, going on outings, visiting friends, playing cards, doing puzzles, reading, gardening, baking, scrapbooking, and engaging in other stimulating and enriching hobbies and activities.
Even a few hours a day of companionship improves the quality of life of most people. Seniors are less likely to experience loneliness, depression and boredom when someone is by their side.
Caregivers are available for hospital stays, including overnights, and can help a client get home safely and comfortably after being discharged.
Activity and exercise are essential to both physical and mental health by not only increasing stamina, lowering blood pressure, making the heart stronger, and improving sleep, but also by relieving stress and improving moods and alertness. Whenever appropriate, our caregivers can incorporate light exercise into a client’s daily routine. This may include activities such as swimming, stretching, and going for walks outside to get fresh air and sunshine. Caregivers can motivate, supervise, and accompany clients as they improve their physical and mental health.
