How to Help Aging Parents Stay at Home

To provide your parents with more comfort, positivity, and independence as they age, your main goal should be to keep them at home for as long as possible. With in home care services from Visiting Angels^® Bensalem, you can secure the support needed to make that happen.

We provide customized care duties to improve home safety, comfort, and convenience for local seniors. Our service is always designed around each person's specific needs, and we look forward to planning their care with you during our initial care consultation. To begin, we'd like to offer up some key tips for improving their home safety and managing their needs. 

3 Tips to Help Your Elderly Loved One Remain at Home

• Improve Home Safety. You can set them up in a safer living environment by removing clutter, adding handrails to the bathroom, organizing their kitchen for easy access to essentials, and improving the lighting throughout the house. Also, make sure that all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors work and have full batteries. 
• Understand Their Medical Situation. Now is the time to gain permission to view their medical information. This will allow you to hear firsthand from their doctor about their physical and mental limitations, while also gaining a better understanding of how you can help. You will be able to more effectively support them in following their doctor's advice and will have an easier time relaying this information to us during our initial care consultation. 
• Prepare for an Emergency. Even though you take multiple steps to create a safer home life, accidents can still happen, and you want to be prepared. Purchasing a wearable emergency device is a great way to reduce stress for both you and your elderly parents. They will have the ability to call for help without moving, which can really set their mind at ease.
