Senior Adult Day Care

Senior Adult Day Care in Menifee.  Does your senior parent need adult day care? We have the ability to help them get the mind and physical stimulation they need to keep interested in life.

As adults grow older they tend to sleep more lightly and often awaken during the night from needing to go to the bathroom or just wake up from achy joints.  So many seniors make up for lost hours of sleep by catching up with naps during the day. Elders with dementia also seem to sleep more during the day, often falling asleep when they lose interest in meals or fail to notice that they need to use the bathroom.

Boredom, depression chronic pain or other deficiencies can the the cause of adults falling asleep at odd time during the day.  Medications can also be the cause.  If you want your senior adult to stay awake more during the day and sleep better at night, then an Adult Day Care Provider can help.

Just the schedule of getting to the Adult Day Care Home can be very helpful for the Senior.  Senior Assisted Living Facilities, have full time residents, but can also provide Adult Day Care for your Senior.  Just getting your senior to participate in card games, music listening, or sing a-longs, can help them get the stimulation they need to sleep less during the day. Even the companionship and day trips can help the elder maintain an interest in life.  Engaging in activities can really help your senior feel better and stay awake longer during the day.  At most homes they offer crossword puzzles, trivia games and activities to give mind stimulation, interaction with our home residents can be very interesting to your senior.

If you are getting ready to start a new senior assisted facility,  you will need a website.  Please call Cory George Website Developer. Visit the Contact Page and send her an email.

Senior Tips Fourth of July

If you are planning a family outing for your senior family members or friends.

When Barbecuing or  Cooking Outdoors –

Find out what sort of seating should be used.  If you have backless picnic benches, consider that elderly persons will sit on it and have no back support.  Try providing folding chairs, or stack-able plastic chairs.  Even a cushion will help keep back pain in check for seniors.  Many seniors have to deal with back pain and will find sitting for long periods uncomfortable.

If your guests are in a wheelchairs, make sure you have wide enough and slopes gentle enough to maneuver in the back yard.

If you do not have lots of shade, then use portable beach umbrellas to help keep bright sun off of your senior guests.

Seniors should consider wearing comfortable clothes that include layers, never know when the wind will pick up and give them a chill.  Also use sturdy shoes to prevent falls and trips.  Don’t forget the sun screen for your senior’s skin.

At a barbecue party be sure to set up a spot for your senior away from the hot grill and any areas where children may be likely to throw balls or roughing around.

Make sure they are closely locate near the bathrooms. Seniors often need to take several restroom breaks.

Take care that your seniors do not get dehydrated.  Make sure they have plenty of water. Avoid alcoholic beverages, due to dehydration and it can conflict with medications.

Watch seniors for signs of restlessness, overheating or other distress. Try not to put any pressure on seniors for socializing or talking to other.  It makes them feel comfortable just to be around others without the pressure of talking.

Seniors Mothers Day Gifts can be difficult to figure out sometimes. You should try a homemade gift.   Some great homemade gifts can really be more rewarding that store bought flowers and candy.  How about making a Memory Jar or a Photo Bouquet?

Here are some simple instructions.

Memory Jar

For a Memory Jar, you will need a nice jar, several pieces of paper and time to work on it.  On each piece of paper write down a different memory of a wonderful time that you have shared with your mother.  Fold the pieces of paper and place them in the jar so she can read them over time.  What a wonderful way to share memories with your mother.  Even after the day is over, she can go back and read them again and again.

seniors mothers dayPhoto Bouquet

Flowers are always beautiful, but they eventually dye and wither.  How about giving a bouquet of photos that will last and last.  Cut flower shapes from construction paper and gluing photo cut-outs in the center of the flower.  Have color copies of photos to use.  Try to find photos of child memories or take new digital images and get them printed.  Paste these photos onto the flower shapes and add outer frames to add more color.  You can then glue green stems to hold the photos up and form a bouquet.  Place them into a nice little vase, or paste them on a bigger home made card.

We hope you have a Happy Mothers Day!
