Tips for Caring for Your Loved One

Are you providing dementia care for a loved one in Jenks? Are you concerned about their ability to live at home as their symptoms progress? Here are three tips to improve your loved one’s quality of life and your caregiving experience.

  1. Prioritize physical activity. Studies have shown that a sedentary lifestyle increases the probability of dementia symptoms, while exercise can slow brain aging and improve mood. Not sure where to start? Popular activities among seniors include gardening, golfing, walking, water aerobics, and pickleball. Remember to check with your doctor before starting a new exercise routine.
  2. Promote self-care. Encourage your loved one to participate in daily activities. From preparing meals and folding laundry to grocery shopping and paying bills, keeping them active and involved can boost self-esteem and help them maintain cognitive function. 
  3. Avoid caregiver burnout. As your loved one’s symptoms progress, they’ll require more care, more patience, and more time. Without time to rest and recharge, the primary caregiver can become overwhelmed, short-tempered, and stressed out. Caring for yourself will ensure you can provide your loved one with the best care possible.
