Home Care for the Holidays

December 01, 2023

The holiday season is a busy time of year for many people, but it can be especially overwhelming when caring for elderly loved ones. Hiring a home caregiver is a great solution to make the holidays happier and less stressful for everyone. Below are just a few of the holiday to-do items that a home caregiver could help get checked off the list.

 

Decorating

Pulling out boxes from storage can be a difficult task for older individuals. Home caregivers can also help put up the tree and display decorations. They can even help put it all away after the new year!

 

Holiday Shopping

Holiday shopping is hard. Finding the right gift for everyone on your list, staying within budget, and getting it all done in time is the ultimate seasonal challenge. Hiring a caregiver to help your senior loved one with Christmas shopping can help make your holiday shopping load feel lighter, and your loved one more engaged in the process.

Cooking

Many holiday traditions revolve around food. Caregivers can be that extra hand in the kitchen, helping your loved one to still contribute their traditional part of the family meal.

 

Wrapping Gifts

The post office can be busy and hard to navigate, and wrestling with wrapping paper is tough on arthritic hands. Caregivers can help seniors not only with wrapping their presents, but also getting them shipped to the correct recipient and/or address.
