  • When You Work A Lot, In-Home Senior Care Could Help Your Parent

    Many adults will be forced to make the difficult decision of deciding the kind of care that their parent(s) should receive as they grow older. This is a difficult decision to make because many don't want to stick their loved ones in an elderly home and only see them every so often. However, it's important to carefully consider that at a certain point, your parent will need more care than you're able to provide on your own, especially when you're working full-time.

  • Don'T Be Afraid To Set These Rules With Your Home Health Aide

    When you hire a home health aide to provide you with care in the comfort of your home, you'll want to develop a close relationship with the caregiver. He or she may visit you several times a week or even spend nights in your home, so it's ideal to start your relationship off on the right foot. Getting used to spending time with someone new can occasionally have its challenges, but you may find that setting some rules can be helpful.

  • Medical Equipment You'll Need If You've Been Diagnosed With Craniocervical Instability

    Craniocervical instability is a condition that can cause debilitating neurological problems throughout the body and typically occurs in people who have connective tissue disorders, such as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Craniocervical instability, which can also be called occipitoatlantialaxial hypermobility, is the instability of the junction of the head and neck. This results in deformation of vital parts of the central nervous system: the cerebellum, brainstem, and the upper portion of the spinal cord.

About Me

Tips for Helping Your Favorite Senior Stay in Great Health

I have a passion for seniors. When I was growing up, my granny was my best friend. She helped me with my homework every day after school and was always ready to lend an ear when I needed someone to talk to. As I grew older and my grandmother did as well, she developed dementia. My parents, siblings, and I all took turns visiting her home to give her the extra care she needed. I learned a lot during this experience and know there are others out there with elderly relatives they are already caring for or suspect may need some extra care. I decided to create a blog to share my senior care tips with anyone and everyone who needs the advice. Come back often for new posts!
