Is Your Loved One in Highland Lakes Ready for Home Care?

For many families, the holiday season is a special time of year that draws everyone together. You may notice that your nieces and nephews have grown taller, or that your sister-in-law cut her hair. You may also notice that your mom is moving a little slower than the last time you saw her, or is a little more forgetful.

As you visit with your loved one this holiday season, look for red flags that can indicate that they would benefit from home care from Visiting Angels Highland Lakes. These red flags can include:

• A significant change in weight

• Spoiled or expired food in the refrigerator or cabinets

• Unopened bills, cluttered countertops, and surfaces

• A strong body odor or change in personal hygiene

• Difficulty walking, balancing, or getting up from a seated position

• Extreme changes in mood or behavior

• Forgetfulness
