Table of Contents
1. Seniors With High-Level Needs
If you’re like most people, when you imagine elderly care, you picture infirm, very ill, or significantly limited seniors receiving care. While this is only one group that can benefit from elderly care, they do comprise a sizable percentage of care recipients. They often live in nursing homes or receive multiple visits from in-home caregivers each day.
2. Seniors Who Require Help With The Activities Of Daily Living
The group mentioned above typically cannot complete all the activities of daily living on their own. However, even seniors whose needs are less pronounced can struggle with these activities, too. These activities are everyday tasks of self-care, such as brushing one’s teeth, using the toilet, showering and bathing, remembering to take medication, and preparing and eating meals. Caregivers help seniors with all these activities and more.
3. Those Who Face Mental Health And Neurological Challenges
We focus more on the physical challenges that the elderly face because these challenges are usually more visible. Nevertheless, it’s important to remember that seniors deal with mental issues as often, or at even higher rates, as younger people. Many elderly folks deal with depression and anxiety. A companion caregiver can help clients work through these issues, as can a therapist. There are also caregivers who specialize in helping elderly people with dementia, such as Alzheimer’s disease.
4. Elderly People Who Are Lonely
Loneliness is a big problem in our society, especially among the elderly. Companion caregivers visit seniors in their Orange County homes and help to ease their pain. Other seniors can assuage these problems by moving into a senior living community where they can live among and socialize with other seniors.
5. Seniors Who Just Hate Chores
Chores aren’t usually fun for anybody. For seniors, they can be painful and exhausting. Home helper caregivers can do household chores for seniors.
6. Seniors Who Have Challenges With Errands
Home helper caregivers can run errands for the elderly, such as grocery shopping and picking up medication. Home helper caregivers can also help seniors with transportation.
