The Importance of Wellness Calls in Elder Home Care Services
Prioritizing Connection and Companionship
At Home Helpers® Home Care in Kirkland, WA, we understand the importance of human connection, especially for our elderly loved ones. That’s why we prioritize Wellness Calls as a key component of our elder home care services. These calls provide much-needed companionship and reminders for our clients, ensuring that they are well and cared for. They can be scheduled as often as you or your loved one would like, giving you peace of mind and keeping your loved one connected with the outside world.
How Wellness Calls Can Help
Wellness calls can be utilized for a variety of reasons, including:
Morning or evening check-ins to ensure your loved one is starting or ending their day on a positive note
Medication reminders to ensure they are taking their medications as prescribed
Hydration and meal reminders to promote good nutrition and prevent dehydration
Exercise reminders to encourage physical activity and overall wellbeing
Companionship – a simple hello and conversation can brighten someone’s day and prevent loneliness
