How Our Personal Care in Weldon Spring Makes Bathing Safer
If your elderly loved one has experienced a decline in their physical abilities, bathing and showering can become dangerous tasks. That's because the wet and slippery conditions make it easy for them to slip and fall, and if they fall and break a bone, they could end up doing permanent damage to their physical health. With our personal care support for seniors throughout Weldon Spring, Visiting Angels® Greater St. Charles provides assistance to help with this potentially dangerous task.
We offer in-home, one-on-one support for local seniors. Our personal care is a terrific alternative to living inside of a care facility, as it allows seniors to get the support they need without giving up the privacy, familiarity, and comfort of living at home. We are proud to help local seniors continue to bathe or shower with safety and confidence as they age in place.
The Importance of Bathing Support
Accepting direct help with such a private task is never easy. However, if your loved one truly needs assistance in this area, it is crucial to convince them to accept our support. Without proper assistance, every bath or shower presents the risk of serious injury. The benefits of our bathing support include:
- Enhanced safety. We can turn this hazardous activity into a safe and comfortable part of your loved one's daily life. Our kind and respectful caregivers know how to provide the right level of support for each individual senior to ensure safe bathing.
- Mobility aid. With limited mobility, your loved one will have a hard time properly washing themselves in the shower or bath. With our support, they can go about this task with confidence.
- Dignity. By keeping up with daily self-care, your loved one can maintain a more dignified appearance. This makes it more likely that they'll keep up a social life and feel comfortable going out into public. Since many seniors suffer from loneliness and isolation, this is a critical benefit.
