When your loved one is no longer able to care for themselves or a family caregiver’s ability to help has been exhausted, it may be time to consider a paid caregiver. Signs to look out for include these:
- Leaving the stove on
- Wandering away from home
- Not eating regularly or nutritiously
- Not bathing regularly
- Falling frequently or having difficulty walking without help
- Not driving safely to doctors’ offices or other appointments
- Not preparing simple meals
You may get some pushback from those who say they don’t want or need help. Every situation is unique and everyone’s needs are different, but when you feel your loved one can’t be safe without help, discuss the options and allow the recipient of the care to help determine what he or she is most comfortable doing.
We can provide both long term and short term care, customized for your loved ones’ needs to ensure they get the right support to continue to do the things they love. We can meet your short term or around-the-clock care, and everything in between. We’re here for you 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. We are available in Westchester County, the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, and Staten Island.
