Maintaining a healthy diet is important for all of us because of the many good impacts your diet can have on your health. Including fresh foods, produce, fruits and vegetables, and a healthy balance in your diet can decrease high blood pressure and other heart problems, increase circulatory health, decrease cholesterol, and help regulate chronic health problems. At Visiting Angels of South Dayton, we provide quality companion home care to make sure your loved one is getting the proper nutrition.

Improve Your Aging Loved One’s Quality of Life with Expert Companion Home Care in Centerville, South Dayton, Xenia, and Nearby Cities

How to know if a senior loved one needs assistance with meal planning and preparation: 

• Does your aging loved one have trouble getting to the grocery store?
• Does your aging loved one struggle to prepare their own meals or use their fine motor skills?
• Is your loved one following their doctor’s dietary recommendations?
• Does your aging loved one have health circumstances that impact their diet?
• Is your loved one taking the appropriate water or food with their medication schedule as needed?

Each of these questions is vital to your loved one’s long-term well-being, and companion home care can make sure you know the answer. Our elderly care providers can help your loved one with mobility and transportation issues, as well as provide grocery shopping services. We know that meal preparation can be challenging for those with arthritis and other conditions, so we can help prepare and store healthy meals for everyday use.

Many seniors have chronic conditions, or medication side effects, that can be helped or hurt by what they eat. Our caregivers will work with your loved one’s medical providers to understand what foods should be avoided or encouraged and help your loved one modify their diet accordingly.
