Does Your Senior Need Help at Home? A Holiday Checklist for Anyone Caring for Seniors
Date:12/17/2008

sonal hygiene? According to Mayo Clinic, macular degeneration is the leading cause of severe vision loss in people age 60 and older. Fine newsprint may become harder to read and street signs more difficult to recognize. Gray or blank spots may mask the center of your senior's visual field. The condition usually develops gradually, but sometimes progresses rapidly, leading to severe vision loss in one or both eyes.

Look to your parents' neighbors and other close friends to find out about their daily routine. Are your seniors at home more, watching television and avoiding stimulating conversation and companionship? If your loved one needs help at home, consider contacting Home Instead Senior Care. The company's CAREGivers are screened, trained, bonded and insured, and equipped to help seniors with their home care and companionship needs such as meal preparation, light housekeeping, medication reminders, errands and shopping.

For more information about how families can help seniors live at home or about caregiving challenges that families face, contact Dan Wieberg, Public Relations Manager at 888-484-5759.
