Companion Care Services in Rancho Cucamonga

Can This Help With Anxiety?

It's hard to know if an older family member is dealing with anxiety—and what's causing it. But heightened anxiety is a common experience for seniors. At Visiting Angels^® Upland, we help families in Rancho Cucamonga get the support they need. Through companion care services and other caregiver support, we look after seniors across the region. 

Let's review some common sources of anxiety for seniors, and how our team can help. 

What Causes Anxiety For Older Family Members? 

Through our companion care services in Rancho Cucamonga, we've worked with countless seniors in San Bernadino County. While anxiety can manifest in different ways for every person, here are a few common themes: 

• Worry about the future. As your loved one gets older, certain day-to-day tasks may be getting harder for them. They may be wondering how they'll be able to remain living at home comfortably. If they're losing strength and mobility, they may be afraid of falling or hurting themselves. 
• Grief and loss. Whether your family member has lost a spouse or friend recently, or they're simply dealing with a lot of isolation, grief and loneliness are common experiences for seniors. This lack of social interaction can activate significant feelings of anxiety, and can even trigger cognitive decline.  
• Loss of purpose. Seniors who have devoted their lives to their work, looking after family, or other priorities may find their retirement years to be difficult. So much unstructured free time can cause boredom, frustration, and aimlessness. These feelings can activate anxiety.
