Elderly<br />
care at<br />
home...<br />
As the days begin to lengthen and we see the<br />
ADVERTISING FEATURE<br />
first signs of spring, our companions continue<br />
to offer consistent and continuous care.<br />
As it’s usually the same carer each visit, strong friendships often form.<br />
One relative summed up the importance of this friendship for her<br />
auntie: “She now has her ‘friends’ that come in for a cuppa and a<br />
chat, they help with her household chores and take her out for coffee<br />
and cake! It’s been wonderful to see how her relationship with her<br />
carer has grown to the point that she feels completely comfortable to<br />
do household chores together whilst enjoying each other’s company.”<br />
The niece of a client reports: “Seniors Helping Seniors have been<br />
especially helpful during these difficult months in lockdown. My great<br />
aunt would have been so alone, frightened and confused. With the<br />
regular support of Seniors Helping Seniors she’s managing better than<br />
we could have hoped for.”<br />
For some of our elderly clients, our support with shopping, cooking,<br />
cleaning, dog walking, laundry and of course companionship has<br />
been essential over the past year. Our carers have stepped in when<br />
family have been unable to visit.<br />
Creative ways of seeing family such as WhatsApp are used when<br />
possible to connect clients with family members, whatever is needed<br />
to perk people up.<br />
Life goes on, more complex yes, but still to be en-joyed as best we<br />
can with a smile and a “can do” philosophy.<br />
