1. Help With Chores And Errands
Housework is rarely the most important thing a caregiver can do for a client, but it is a service that can really help. At Always Best Care of Newport Beach, we know that many seniors find caring for their Orange County homes to be quite difficult. That’s why we provide home helper services. We can assign a caregiver to do household chores, such as cleaning bathroom fixtures, dusting hard-to-reach places, and laundry.
If you or your loved one don’t want to move out of your/their beloved Newport Beach home and into a long-term care facility, it’s important to know that caregivers can still help you. A home helper caregiver can make sure you don’t have to worry about exhausting and painful household chores. Furthermore, starting in-home care with home helper services can help a senior transition to personal care if that becomes necessary.
2. Mental Health Benefits
Mental health is just as important as physical health. Unfortunately, seniors face as many mental health problems as they do physical ones. That’s why we at Always Best Care of Newport Beach provide companion care. Companion caregivers have conversations with seniors, inquire about their wellbeing, reminisce with them, play card and board games with them, and monitor their mental condition.
3. Help Outside The Home
A caregiver’s services aren’t limited to the inside of your Orange County home. For example, caregivers can take care of errands, such as grocery shopping and picking up medication. They can also accompany their clients outside of their homes. They escort clients to medical appointments, recreational events, and more.
4. Medication Reminders
After picking up their clients’ medication, caregivers can then ensure their clients take that medication. It’s not always easy to remember when and how to take one’s medication, especially if you’re a senior and especially if you have multiple medications to take. Caregivers can help by visiting at the same time every day and reminding their clients when and how to take their medication.
5. Keeping Clients In Touch With The Outside World
Caregivers often help their clients keep in touch with their loved ones. They can organize their clients’ mail, read letters to them, and help them write and send letters to their friends and family. They can also help them with paying and sorting bills.
