Home instead in Milton Keynes can provide live-in care that suits your loved one's needs alongside companionship.
Home Instead is a locally owned business in Milton Keynes that provides friendly and responsive home care services personalised carefully for each client.
Their care professionals come from all walks of life. They span the generations and have a wide variety of hobbies, interests, and experiences.
But they all share one thing, the desire to make a difference in someone’s life.
The festive season is fast approaching and you may not have seen your relatives for some time. Maybe they live a distance from you or your lifestyle which means it’s harder to see them on a regular basis.
We know that as we get older, sudden changes in our behaviour and health can be alarming and this can be even more difficult at a time when there is an expectation for everyone to be happy and enjoy the festivities.
At Home Instead, they support their clients and family members to help spot these sudden or gradual changes.
Many illnesses, if identified early enough, can be treated to minimise the potential distress and discomfort caused. Dementia is one such illness that Home Instead care professionals have training in, they can spot the warning signs.
It's not just dementia or other illnesses that may become apparent when we don't see our loved ones for a while but fundamental changes in mood and/or mobility.
The ability to complete everyday tasks can become harder and even dangerous in later life. The care professionals at Home Instead are fully trained to spot the tell-tale signs that indicate extra resources or assistance needed in the home. It may be simply a case of installing some grab rails in the bathroom or even moving items to make them more accessible to prevent excessive stretching and straining.
We should not underestimate loneliness and the impact this can have.
Having a reason to get out of bed, and a companion to look forward to seeing in the day can make all the difference.
Being able to stay at home as we get older is so important and can mean so much. Home Instead can make this happen whether you live far away or close to your loved ones.
So this festive season, start the conversation, what would make life easier for your loved ones?
Maybe they'd simply like help with their shopping, go out for lunch, visit the garden centre or just have some company.
Maybe they need to have someone with them 24 hours a day and you thought a care home was the only option? It's not the only option, Home Instead can provide live-in care that suits your loved one's needs.
Staying in the home you know and love, has been proven to keep people happier and healthier for longer.
