The Different Ways That Caregivers Are Helping the Elderly

August 8, 2020 By Keren Wheeler

helping the elderly

Leviticus 19:32 says “Stand up in the presence of the aged, show respect for the elderly and revere your God. I am the LORD.” This is a bible verse that gives direction in how the elderly population should be treated. Caregivers who enjoy helping the elderly do so because they have respect for their elderly clients. In addition, they also learn a lot about life by listening to the advice and wisdom given by these elders. This is one of the benefits of helping the elderly. There are several ways that caregivers can help those who are aging and provide companionship while also allowing them to remain as independent as possible.

Assistance with Chores and Errands

As a person ages, they are less mobile than they once were. Many elderly people do not like to ask for help from someone else even if provides them with benefits. Caregivers can provide assistance with laundry, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. Many seniors are malnourished because they do not eat properly. This can be a result of not cooking meals, or having access to the right types of food. Caregivers can go grocery shopping for their elderly client and/or cook meals for the client.

Companionship

Some elderly clients simply want someone that they can talk to. Their children may be adults who are living away from home, and their spouse may be deceased. Being alone for extended periods of time can increase the chances of an elderly person becoming depressed. Caregivers can make the elderly feel important by spending time with them. The elderly are wonderful storytellers, and they are a wealth of knowledge. They enjoy passing on their wisdom to the younger generations.

Family Respite

Finally, adult children who do care for elderly parents often feel overwhelmed by all of the responsibilities. Fortunately, caregivers allow family members to have time away so they are able to recharge and reduce some of the mental stress that they may be going through also.

Helping the elderly is the reason why caregivers enjoy their work. You can contact Evergreen Private Care if you or someone you love needs to find a reliable and caring professional to provide assistance in your home.
