Supporting Dementia with Routine 💚
“Routine isn’t boring. It’s reassuring.”

Why Daily Structure Helps Those with Dementia:
✔️ Reduces confusion and anxiety
✔️ Supports memory with predictable patterns
✔️ Builds confidence through familiar activities

🧼 Incontinence doesn’t erase independence.

It’s a reality for many older adults but it doesn’t define them. In our blog “Incontinent but Not Incompetent: Why Elderspeak Causes a Downward Spiral,” we explore how patronising language can:

1. Undermine confidence and self-worth
2. Discourage openness and trust
3. Lead to shame, withdrawal, even health setbacks

Here’s how Golden Home Care does it differently:

- Use respectful, adult language
- Offer discreet support with dignity
- Focus on empowerment, compassion and privacy

“They are driving me crazy!” This phrase is uttered (or screamed) by family members everywhere who are caring for elderly loved ones. Caregivers often deal with unusual, unruly and embarrassing behaviour from their care recipients.

Believe it or not, it’s quite common for elderly people to throw temper tantrums. In our blog, we look into why they happen and how best to handle them. 👇 💚

Today is World Digestive Health Day

Digestive issues in older adults aren't just about diet. 🥕🌽

Here’s a quick checklist of what can contribute to poor digestion and what many caregivers miss:

- Multiple medications (especially painkillers, iron supplements, and calcium)
- Limited mobility: Being seated or bed-bound slows everything down
- Not drinking enough water: Especially if they don’t feel thirsty
- Depression or loneliness: Can reduce appetite and alter gut function
- Dental pain or poor-fitting dentures: Leads to skipped or ultra-soft meals
- Inconsistent meal times: Disrupts natural digestive rhythms

💚 At Golden Home Care, our team of caregivers are trained to look beyond the plate, because good digestion is about the whole person, not just what they eat.

If your loved one is dealing with discomfort, irregularity, or loss of appetite, we’re here to help. Learn more about our personalised care 👇

When Siblings Disagree About Care for Ageing Parents 💖🏠

Caring for Mom or Dad can be tough, especially when siblings disagree.
Here’s how to find common ground:

1. Spend Time Together: If you're not the primary caregiver, spend time with your parents to understand their needs better and give the primary caregiver a break.

2. Talk Openly: Have a family meeting to discuss care needs. Sharing the daily caregiving realities can help everyone understand and plan better.

3. Get Help: Don’t hesitate to seek professional advice. Care managers and mediators can offer neutral guidance and help resolve conflicts.

4. Consider Outside Care: Golden Home Care provides in-home assistance from housekeeping to specialised medical care, making it easier on everyone.

Contact us today to learn how we can support your family. Let’s ensure the best care for your loved ones together. 💚
