For seniors, downsizing is a great option to retain independent living, however a little extra support can still be needed. Kerri-Anne Dooley from Home Instead Senior Care explains.
“Older people often have a higher quality of life when living in their own home. It is important however to recognise that trusted, personal, quality in-home senior care and companionship services are sometimes needed.”
“A professional caregiver can not only provide your loved ones with physical assistance, they offer companionship – someone to talk to and someone to listen. For elderly family members, this personal connection may be the most valuable and welcome part of in-home care”
“By working with services such as Home Instead Senior Care, seniors can continue to live happy, safe and independent lives in the comfort of their own home without the need to move to a care facility.”
If you believe that you or a loved one could benefit from the support of a professional caregiver, seeking support from a professional organisation to talk about how homecare services may help.
