How Senior Care from Visiting Angels San Angelo Can Help
Most people will experience loneliness at some point in their lives, but it can be especially prevalent among seniors. Seniors are more susceptible to loneliness and isolation for a number of reasons. Changes in physical ability can make it harder to remain mobile. Vision and hearing loss can make it frustrating to communicate, and seniors who have given up the ability to drive find it difficult to arrange transportation when they need it. The loss of family and friends can also have a huge impact.
Senior care services from Visiting Angels San Angelo can ease feelings of loneliness and isolation. Our compassionate caregivers provide a wide variety of services that support the physical and emotional needs of seniors, including:
Transportation. Driving is a sign of independence, so when the time comes to hand over the keys, it can lead to feelings of depression, anger, and sadness. It also makes it harder for seniors to stay social, especially when they live far from amenities. At Visiting Angels San Angelo, our senior care providers can provide your loved one with reliable transportation when they need it so that they can stay active and independent.
Help with personal hygiene. Practicing personal hygiene on a daily basis can be a real struggle with arthritis, limited range of motion, or when recovering from an injury. Body odor and soiled clothing can be embarrassing, and often results in self-isolation. At Visiting Angels San Angelo, our caregivers are dedicated to providing respectful personal care to our clients and can assist with bathing, dressing, grooming, and toileting.
Companionship. At Visiting Angels San Angelo, we believe that exceptional senior care addresses both the physical and emotional needs of our clients. That’s why no matter which care services you choose for your loved one, they’ll receive the social benefits of conversation and companionship.
