Visiting Angels of Bangor, ME Has Angel Caregivers to Help Elders Get Active!

How Our Angel Caregivers Can Improve Seniors in Bangor Quality of Life

Most of us have heard enough from our doctors about how physical activity is a key to many parts of good health. But for many of us, knowing the facts doesn’t help us change our lifestyles or old habits. The angel caregivers at Visiting Angels of Bangor know that physical exercise does not have to be a chore—and that people of all ages can benefit from increased activity.

When you work with our angel caregivers, your aging loved one will have a personal care services for a variety of everyday tasks—and someone who can help facilitate them to engage with these tasks to the best of their ability. As we age, tasks that might have been simple before are now more complex; for instance, being able to make fresh meals at home can require some assistance. Whether your loved one needs transportation to the grocery store, mobility assistance to get around inside the store, or someone to bring over groceries and help to prepare fresh food—our in home caregivers are ready to help.

The changes that occur throughout the aging process also mean that exercise or physical activity will change, too. It is important that everyone, at every age, get some daily activity that helps their body feel good, maintain muscle, and help with good heart health. We do not implement a one-size-fits-all exercise regimen; instead, we will work with your loved one’s doctor to understand their recommendations for activities that are safe and comfortable and help your loved one incorporate that activity into their everyday habits.

At Visiting Angels of Bangor, we believe in caring for the whole person. That means that some of the physical activities we recommend can also help care for other parts of physical, mental, emotional, and social help. Whether it is walking through a community fair, enjoying a path in a park, or help completing chores around the home or yard, our angel caregivers will make sure that your loved one is engaging in activities that they enjoy, while maintaining health and safety.

If you are worried about an aging loved one who may not incorporate physical activity into their everyday life, we can help.
