As we age, our appetites can play tricks on us! 🍽️ Your brain might tell you you're not hungry when your body actually needs fuel. Changes in taste, smell, and even medications can affect how much we want to eat.​

The solution? Eat by the clock! ⏰ Try to have something nutritious every few hours, even if you don't feel hungry. Make every mouthful count with protein-rich, calorie-dense foods.​

Remember: feeling 'not hungry' doesn't mean your body doesn't need nutrients. Be kind to yourself and use treats to tempt your appetite back on track! ❤️​

Did you know most people who choose home care aren't actually unwell? 🤔​

Home care isn't about what you can't do - it's about enhancing what you love to do! Whether you want help with the groceries so you can spend more time in your garden, or assistance with housework so you can focus on your hobbies, we're here to support your lifestyle choices.​

There's nothing more important than feeling valued and trusted
when it comes to your care ❤️​

Trust is everything in home care – it's the foundation that allows
you to relax and enjoy life whilst knowing you're in caring,
capable hands. When families tell us they're happy with our
service, it reminds us why we do what we do every single day.

Today is Dying to Know Day ❤️

A gentle reminder that having conversations about end-of-life preferences is one of the most loving things we can do for our families.

At Dovida, we're honoured to support people who choose to spend their final days in the comfort of their own homes, surrounded by what matters most. Our specially trained caregivers provide compassionate palliative care that respects each person's wishes, values, and cultural beliefs.

Our teams across the country recently participated in Dying to Know Day events, sharing insights about planning for later life and empowering individuals to make informed choices about their end-of-life care. These conversations may feel difficult, but they bring peace of mind to everyone and ensure care is delivered exactly as someone would want - supporting them to live their life, their way, right to the end.

Whether it's updating your will, discussing your wishes, or simply letting loved ones know how you'd like to be cared for - small conversations today create meaningful comfort tomorrow.

Let's bust some common nutrition myths! ​

💪 Think your stomach shrinks as you age? Think again! Your appetite might change, but your stomach stays the same size.​

Here's the truth: As we get older, we actually need MORE protein to keep our muscles, immune system, and brain functioning well. And those few extra kilos? They can actually be protective and beneficial! ❤️​
