Knowing When It’s Time for In-Home Help

Are you wondering if it’s time for in-home help?

Caring for your loved one shouldn’t be overwhelming or stressful. When you begin to neglect your own well-being, the well-being of your loved one can also suffer. Knowing when it’s time for in-home help can benefit both you and your loved one. En Su Casa Caregivers can help ensure your loved one receives the assistance they need with activities of daily living and ongoing health care needs. We know that getting care at home is the most comfortable way for your loved one to get support and maintain their independence.

When should I begin searching for in-home care?

Balance Issues: One of the most common threats to seniors’ health is the risk of falling and complications that follow a fall. If you notice your loved one being unsteady on their feet or having difficulty with mobility, it’s time to think about in-home caregiving and prevent serious falls from happening.

Memory Issues: As we begin to age it’s normal to forget simple things, but if you begin to notice your loved one regularly forgetting doctor appointments, names of friends or family members, missing doses of medication, forgetting to eat their meals, or being unable to recall recent information, then it’s time to consult with their health care provider about the next steps to meet their care needs.

Decline in Personal Care: If you notice your loved one has been wearing the same clothes for several days in a row or refusing to bathe and forgetting to brush their teeth, it’s time for some extra support to make sure their care needs are met.

The Feeling of Loneliness: It’s common for seniors to begin having feelings of loneliness, too much of this feeling can lead to depression. If you notice your loved one is not interested in activities or hobbies they once had or showing signs of isolation by sitting in front of the TV all day, companion care can help provide the social and mental stimulation your loved one needs.

Decline in Housekeeping: If you notice stacks of unopened mail, piles of laundry, dust collecting on furniture, an empty fridge needing groceries, it’s time to consider hiring a caregiver for your loved one.

Burnout: If providing constant care for your loved one is starting to make you feel burned out or you are beginning to struggle with maintaining your own life responsibilities, a caregiver can help provide needed support to you and your loved one.
