Many adults shifted from working in an office environment to working from home during the coronavirus pandemic. While COVID-19 restrictions have eased, some people continue to work at home indefinitely.

Working at home has advantages, including less stress and a more relaxed environment. Those who live near or with their senior loved ones may find it easier to provide daily care for them if they can continue to work from home. 

However, some may find it challenging to balance work responsibilities with the demands of managing a loved one's care needs long-term.

Challenges of Working from Home and Senior Care

For many, taking care of a senior from home can be challenging, especially while working. Dual responsibilities may make it difficult to focus on the task at hand. No matter which tasks you complete, knowing how to protect yourself and your loved one's health and well-being is essential.

On top of balancing work tasks, caring for your aging loved one can be overwhelming.

How Visiting Angels Littleton Can Make Working from Home Easier

Whether your senior loved one resides with you or not, an in-home personal caregiver can handle senior care tasks during your work-at-home hours.

Here are some benefits of hiring a caregiver while working from home:

  1. Fewer interruptions
    When you hire a Visiting Angels caregiver, you are hiring a professional that can respond to your emergencies while also tending to your loved one's needs. You will have more free time to do other things during the day, so you can still enjoy life and stay productive at work, especially meeting deadlines or attending video conference meetings.

    More companionship and less boredom
    The caregiver will ensure your loved one holds engaging activities and social events, such as music sessions or trips to the park.

    Less stress and anxiety
    You can rest easy knowing that there's someone to ease your loved one's concerns and make them more comfortable when needed. You need to sit and talk with your caregiver about the needs of your senior loved one. 

    Increased safety
    If your senior loved one uses a wheelchair or walker, the caregiver can help ensure their safety by preventing falls and responding promptly to health issues. They can also help remind the senior to take medications, prepare meals, and keep a regular schedule.

    Flexibility that fits your schedule
    You don't need to be at home every hour of your day so that you can take on new projects and priorities. With our caregivers on standby, you can always have someone there to take care of your loved one while you enjoy your time away. With Visiting Angels' senior home care available, you will have more time to work without worrying about managing your loved one's care needs.

    Time for self-care
    Visiting Angels' caregivers can help you take time for yourself during the day and also free up time for tasks that need to be completed on your own. You will have peace of mind knowing that someone is there to assist your loved one, even if it falls on evenings or weekends.

We are passionate about connecting families with the best possible senior care services at Visiting Angels Littleton. Our mission is to provide each family with a personalized home care experience that rejuvenates and revitalizes their senior loved one.
