Communication: Keeping
Up with Your Senior
In some cases, you may be able to see your senior each and
every day; in others, though, it is important that you use technological
devices to stay in touch. Skype and Facetime allow you to video chat with your
elderly loved one. In so doing, you can see one another while carrying on a
conversation, as if you were in the same room talking face to face.
Texting and emailing are also wonderful resources to assist
you in keeping the lines of communication clear with your senior. If you cannot
be present physically, these technological modes of communication work wonders.
Organization: Using
Technological Devices to Manage Daily Tasks
As someone who is providing elder care, you are most likely
managing the days of both your senior and your own family. As such, you may
find that your schedule can get confusing very quickly. Add to this the need to
remember medications, doctor's appointments, etc. and you can find yourself in
a bit of a jam. But the technological gadgets that you can employ to boost your
organization can alleviate the stress that such a hectic schedule can cause.
Try taking a look at your routine and pinpointing the areas
in which you need a bit of organizational assistance. You can incorporate
medication alerts into your daily schedule by using the alarm on your cell
phone or another medication alert provider. Furthermore, if you are often on
the go, try using an Internet-based calendar that you can access from your
smartphone, computer, or tablet. This will allow you to stay organized even
when running errands or working.
The home care providers at Always Best Care of Alamance know that the responsibilities of caring for
your elderly loved one can seem great; however, they also understand that, with
the help of the right technological resources, you can streamline your
caregiving efforts and reduce the stress of your schedule.
