Home care - Starting the conversation

Admitting that you need help around the house can be a challenge. It is natural to resist the decision to have a caregiver come in to help on a regular basis.
To prepare your loved one towards this step, one must carefully approach the issue with a lot of patience and understanding. It is critically important to highlight the benefits of the home care option. 
Some of the benefits include;

• The benefit that comes with having a regular caregiver, including medication reminders, meal preparations, and companionship benefits.
• The opportunity to enjoy the familiarity of your environment, with which comes a peace of mind, a sense of privacy.
• The ability to maintain your family doctor to oversee your overall health needs, as well as allowing a working relationship with your caregiver
• The benefit to you as a family caregiver to get the much needed break from care giving. This allows you to attend to your other personal needs, including taking a vacation.
