As a loving family member of a senior citizen, you are likely worried about household falls and other accidents. When setting up a care plan for your loved one, it is important not to neglect the emotional side of things. Seniors often feel isolated and alone, so it's crucial to provide a support system. With our in home care services in Lincoln Park and the surrounding areas of Chicago, Visiting Angels® Chicago Lakeshore can help make sure your loved one never has to be alone. 

Dementia sufferers and their families have to deal with many stressful issues. Wandering is one of the most dangerous and scary effects of this disorder. When seniors lose the ability to recognize familiar settings, they often get confused and end up wandering around without any sense of where they are or what they are or why they are wandering. With professional dementia care services from Visiting Angels® Chicago Lakeshore, you can take the first step towards protecting your loved one. 

Maintaining a consistent bathing routine, getting dressed, and moving around the house all fall under the category of what are known as activities of daily living, or ADLs for short. For most of us, these tasks feel like second nature. However, with age often comes difficulties that make conducting even the most basic tasks a daily challenge. If your loved one is currently struggling to manage their daily routines and take care of themselves, a personal care assistant from Visiting Angels® Chicago Lakeshore can offer crucial support that facilitates a sense of ease in their everyday life at home.
