How In-Home Caregivers from Visiting Angels Naples Can Help You Spend Thanksgiving 2020 with Your Senior Loved One

Our in-home caregivers can help seniors and families in Naples, Marco Island and surrounding areas in Collier County, FL safely celebrate Thanksgiving during the COVID-19 pandemic

COVID-19 has changed much of life as we know it and with holidays right around the corner, many families in Collier County are worried about how to safely coordinate this year’s family gathering or whether to skip them entirely due to safety concerns.

At Visiting Angels Naples, we understand the importance of families being able to spend quality time together for Thanksgiving and our team of highly trained and compassionate in-home caregivers are dedicated to helping families achieve this goal.

Make Thanksgiving Dinner Together

Nothing quite says Thanksgiving like a freshly roasted turkey, warm sweet potatoes and apple pie for dessert. Cooking Thanksgiving food is often a cherished tradition in most households and seniors likely have a few signature dishes that family members wait all year to enjoy. Unfortunately, due to physical limitations, many seniors are no longer able to cook these magnificent feasts by themselves.

At Visiting Angels Naples, our in-home caregivers can assist your loved ones with every step of the cooking process from meal preparation, setting the table and even cleaning dishes afterwards. They do this all while providing meaningful companionship and conversation.

Spend Quality Time with Your Loved One

Spending quality time with loved ones is what Thanksgiving is all about. However, with COVID-19 in full-effect many families may not be able to get to enjoy the company of their loved ones in person this year due to travel restrictions and safety concerns.

For those who feel safe enough to visit their senior loved ones in person, we recommend taking a nice walk around the block or in a local park to reminisce on old stories and share new ones from this crazy year we are all living through right now. Please make sure you are still following social distancing guidelines and wearing face masks.

Visiting Angels Naples understands the value of spending quality time with family members and can also aid those who cannot personally visit with their loved ones due to COVID-19. Our compassionate and highly skilled in-home caregivers help seniors use technology like Zoom, Facetime and Skype to successfully video call with their loved ones so they can have a more personal connection than through a phone call through our Social Care program.

Enjoy Virtual or Socially Distanced Events

Unfortunately, many of the major holiday events that families look forward to have been canceled this year, forcing us to come up with new traditions on the spot. Here are a few of the options that Visiting Angels Naples and our team of in-home caregivers would recommend.

Many musicians are opting to live-stream their performances allowing for a good old family dance party with live music entertainment from the comfort of your own living room. Local museums are also offering virtual tours that are sure to be educational and fun for the whole family.

One of our personal favorites is attending the local drive-in movie theater to binge old movies and junk food all night. This allows us to enjoy a night out with our loved ones from the safety of our own vehicles while following social distancing protocols.

If you think that you or a loved one could benefit from the services our in-home caregivers provide then do not hesitate to reach out today!
