No one likes to feel as though they are helpless. This is especially true when it comes to someone who has been independent for years. However, there comes a time when a little more assistance is needed. With Caring Hearts, we make sure to be the help that your loved one is looking for. Here are some indicators that may lead to some outside assistance.

1. When your loved one is unable to maintain a routine and do certain things for themselves. This can be driving to a doctor’s appointment, buying groceries and preparing meals, taking care of personal needs, bathing, dressing, and using the toilet, doing housework.
2. If there is a need with mobility issues that make it dangerous for a loved one to be alone. If they can’t remember to turn off the burners on the stove, experiencing frequent falls. It is important to have a companion who can provide a watchful eye.
3. Long stretches of time without social interaction that can lead to depression. Bringing a nonmedical home care companion to the home can feel like switching on a light in a dark room.

If these are a few indicators that you are noticing within your loved one give us a call today. We can tell you all about our services and what we can offer to make your loved one’s golden age the best.
