The Importance of Wellness Calls for Elder Home Care Services
Keeping in Touch and Ensuring Wellness
Staying connected with loved ones is a natural human need, especially for older adults who may live alone or have limited social interactions. At Home Helpers® Home Care in Merrillville, IN, we understand the importance of companionship and staying on top of one’s health. That’s why we prioritize Wellness Calls as an essential part of our elder home care services. These calls serve as check-ins to provide companionship and reminders for important daily tasks.
How Wellness Calls Can Help
Wellness calls can be used for a variety of reasons, including:
- Morning or evening check-ins to ensure your loved one is starting and ending their day well
- Medication and hydration reminders to help them stay on top of their health
- Meal reminders to ensure they are getting proper nutrition
- Exercise reminders to encourage physical activity and movement
- Companionship through a simple hello and conversation
Customized Response Plans for Missed Calls
At Home Helpers, we understand that there may be times when your loved one cannot answer our Wellness Calls. In such cases, we have a customized response plan in place. We will work with you to determine how many times per day to try and call, and which family members should be notified in case of an emergency. Our closed-loop process helps ensure the best possible elder home care and safety for your loved ones. And if the situation is not urgent, we will simply make a note of the missed call.
