In honor of National Care at Home Month, we’re celebrating the dedication of caregivers everywhere! 🌟 Today, we want to introduce you to Angela, one of our amazing caregivers.
Angela often works with care recipients who have dementia. “Families appreciate her ability to think outside the box,” her supervisor says. “If the client is upset, she will get them to calm down.”
For instance, one older man she worked with sometimes tried to go outside in the evening. He kept saying he wanted to go home. His daughter later shared that he had grown up in a house nearby, but Angela didn’t know that at the time. “I couldn’t figure out why he was so upset,” she says. In an effort to help, “I said to him, ‘Let’s go for a ride.’” She drove him around for an hour, and by the time they got back, he was calm and ready to go to bed. “You just have to listen to what people are saying,” Angela says.
Home Care is so much more than just meeting needs. Discover Angela's inspiring journey here: https://thekey.com/learning-center/caregiver-spotlight-angela-morrison
