If you're wondering how best to reduce feelings of loneliness or stress for a grandparent or other older relative, here are a few suggestions from our care team. 

3 Ways To Reduce Loneliness For Your Loved One 

Loneliness can have a real, profound impact on quality of life and health. That's doubly true for seniors. Keeping this in mind, here's how you can reduce loneliness for a family member: 

• Send them some snail mail. Receiving unexpected mail can be an immediate boost of endorphins. And it can be easy to manage from your end. Send a postcard or take turns writing letters back and forth. Have your whole family put together a care package to send your loved one. It can be a wonderful way to let them know they're on your mind, and they matter to you. 
• Get them on the internet. If it's possible, help your family member get set up online. You may have to talk them through tech issues over the phone, or find other creative ways to make sure they can access the internet. From there, you can share family photo albums, exchange emails, and even set up a regular video-conferencing session with the whole family. It's a great way to open up new opportunities for connection. 
• Set up trusted caregiver support. A trusted caregiver can help your loved one stay in contact with you and your family. At Visiting Angels East Lansing, our in home care professionals can help seniors navigate technology, engage in cherished activities, and even participate in light exercise like walks. For clients who are isolated and lonely, we make sure caregiver visits are filled with conversation, companionship, and support.
