Senior Social Care by Visiting Angels

As we get older, it can become more difficult to maintain social relationships. However, it’s important to keep up with friends and family in order to promote good emotional, social, and spiritual health. At Visiting Angels of Chelsea, we believe that a holistic viewpoint is the best approach to senior care, and work to help our clients actively participate in social activities. Our caregivers can assist your loved one in the use of technology to help them stay in touch with those who matter most to them, no matter where they are in the world. Best of all, your senior loved one won’t even need to leave their home–our trained and licensed caregivers will come directly to them!

Technology’s Benefits to Seniors

When used effectively, the internet can be a fantastic tool for seniors to help them overcome feelings of boredom, loneliness, and isolation. In fact, recent studies have shown that internet surfing can reduce depression in seniors by 20%! Additionally, researchers have recorded positive effects of social media on seniors including improvements to working memory and elevated mood.

In addition to these benefits, the ability to stay in contact with friends and family from the comfort of the home is an obvious boon to seniors who may not be able to leave the house easily or often. Social interaction has countless benefits to senior health, and tools like text messaging, video chatting, and other social technology provide seniors easy access to the people they enjoy interacting with.

Technology Assistance and Social Media Help For Seniors

All of this new technology can be difficult for seniors to navigate, though. At Visiting Angels of Chelsea, our social care program can help your loved one properly use several types of different technologies. A Visiting Angels caregiver can come to your loved one’s home and help them use a cell phone, set up and use social media profiles, send emails, use video chat applications like Skype and FaceTime, use search engines for things like shopping and educating themselves on new topics, and interact with other common forms of social technology. 

Because of this program, I was able to experience two of the greatest joys in life – becoming a grandmother and seeing my son become a new father. Skyping and Facebooking with my son and his family are now a normal part of my life. It helps me feel like I’m still an important part of their lives even though I’m miles and miles away.
- Kathryn, Former Visiting Angels Client

We offer assistance with bathing and grooming, light housekeeping, errand help, meal preparation, palliative care, fall prevention, dementia care, end-of-life care, respite care, and more.
