Comfort Keepers In-Home Care Could Be The Answer

 

Time is very essential to everybody.  We never know when we are going to lose it.  Today, everyone seems to be very busy; everybody has to live and in order to live, one must work.  But we cannot work and take care of our parents or grandparents who are getting older and require more care and attention.  We become more concerned about their safety at home.  It’s not an easy task caring for the elderly, especially if you are trying to do it alone and aside from that, there comes a time that you will need a break or just some time alone with yourself.  With the constant worry that something will go wrong, the respites and personal time become nonexistent.In-Home Senior Care Santa Clarita

 

 

Sometimes we are left with tough decisions, whether or not an elderly family member should move into an assisted living facility or hire a personal In-Home caregiver is often one of the key questions.  In-Home care for the elderly is an option for family caregivers who need extra help while offering the elderly a high quality of life.  To make your decision a lot easier the Santa Clarita Comfort Keepers advantages of letting your senior family member live at home might help you decide:

1. Seniors are getting more sensitive than usual.  One advantage of letting them stay at home could give them freedom and that freedom could mean their dignity; dignity in which most seniors feel they loose as they age.  This freedom would not be possible in an assisted living residence.  Freedom could also mean that those who receive In-Home care can come and go as they please for whatever reason.  They can also choose their own meal times so they can eat whenever they are hungry unlike meals are served to them, they might feel like prisoners.  They are left of the feeling that they are incapable of deciding for themselves.

 

2. It is proven that caring for pets can reduce stress levels and was also proven to have healthy benefits for seniors.  Homes allow the elderly to keep their pets and even beloved possessions with them for these possessions are tied to invaluable memories.

 

3. Visiting hours or even the number of visitors are not restricted; friends and families can visit anytime they please.  This would create a more fulfilling relationships between them.

 

4. Living at home if sick, one can spread illness like wildfire.  This is of course being assisted with proper precautions.  Those who are sick can simply be asked not to visit until they have fully recovered.  Moreover, living at home will keep seniors healthier as they won’t be subjected to all the germs that inevitably linger in a place where many people live.

 

5. Moving to a new place with new people is stressful.  It is best for the elderly to live within his or her familiar comfort zone and that is in their own home.

 

6. In-Home care is a more fiscally responsible. There can be many disadvantages in assisted living facilities. They are costly and the location may be inconvenient, making it difficult for family members to visit.  Many seniors have paid off their mortgage so moving to a retirement home is an added expense.

 

7. Most especially and more importantly those who live at home are often happier and live longer than living in a nursing home. The familiarity and comforts of our own home is irreplaceable.
