Mental Health of seniors is at an all-time low. In fact, according to a Gallup Poll in February 2022, American happiness has hit record lows. Increases in depression and anxiety will extend well past the pandemic’s impact itself. Our seniors and our Caregivers have been through a lot in the past several years.

Most people would agree that giving back is a wonderful idea. Doing things for other people has benefits on our wellbeing. Livingwell.org states that recent research in neuroscience shows simple acts of kindness activates and strengthens parts of the brain.

To help bring more joy to seniors, Home Helpers® Home Care has the opportunity to give back with Send a Senior a Smile. The concept is easy, plan something kind and share your experience with #SendaSenioraSmile.

Sending a smile could be as simple as bringing someone flowers, baking cookies, reading aloud or helping rake leaves for a senior in your community. The possibilities are endless.

Sending a senior a smile is a way for each of us to do something kind for a senior in our community. Join in the movement to improve the mental health of seniors and others in your community! Share your experience using #SendaSenioraSmile.
