When is it time to get 24-hour care?

Your loved one may benefit from 24-hour care if safety is a concern or if family caregivers are feeling overwhelmed. Below are some other signs that an individual may benefit from 24-hour care.

Forgetfulness: Does your loved one often forget to turn off the stove? Do they become frustrated because they can’t find items? This is a sign that they need more help.
Falls: Recent falls or other injuries at home may indicate the need for 24-hour care.
Loneliness: Is your loved one isolated? Do they seem down or lonely? Companionship (included with 24-hour care) can help with this by engaging them in conversations, fun social activities, and cognitive stimulation (games and puzzles).

Problems preparing meals or eating: If you or your loved one has difficulty preparing healthy meals, then nutritional deficiencies are a concern. Visiting Angels caregivers can assist with preparing nutritious meals. This helps ensure adequate nutrition.
Lack of mobility: Having difficulty getting around could indicate the need for more help at home.
Problems doing familiar tasks: Is your loved one struggling with doing things that were once familar like getting dressed? This is a sign that your loved one needs assistance with daily tasks.
Caregivers are stressed: Many family members try to keep up with care for loved ones, however, it can just be too much. As a family caregiver, taking care of an aging relative might be just one of many responsibilities that you have. Sometimes, it’s just too much. Visiting Angels can provide much-needed care so you can have much-needed rest.
Missing medications and doctor’s appointments: Keeping up with medical appointments and medications is essential in staying well. If your loved one can no longer keep up with these things, it might be time for more intensive care. Caregivers can provide medication and appointment reminders and assist your loved one with transportation.
