DID YOU KNOW THAT WHAT YOU EAT CAN IMPROVE YOUR BRAIN HEALTH AND MEMORY?

An epigenetic diet focuses on eating foods that can help your genes work in healthy ways. Foods like berries, leafy greens, nuts, and fish are full of nutrients that protect brain cells, lower inflammation, and improve memory and focus. These foods can also support mood and may reduce the risk of memory loss or other brain problems as we age. Eating this way helps your body “turn on” good genes that keep your brain healthy and “turn off” ones linked to disease.

On this International Day of Older Persons we are reminded that our elders are our history, our past and our foundation for the future. May we treat and care for them with the love and respect they deserve.

🔹Leaders 🔹Caretakers 🔹Custodians of tradition & so much more.

On Wednesday’s International Day of Older Persons, we celebrate our older generation's contributions to society.

"All communities and ages benefit from the wisdom of older persons. They have much to teach about navigating uncertainty, resolving conflict, and building solidarity across generations,” said UN Secretary-General António Guterres.

“Let’s commit to listening, learning, and acting. Let’s build a world where all people – of every age – can live with respect, security and opportunity."

When I was in college we were taught to maintain a professional relationship with patients and not to get emotionally attached . Somehow that lesson didn't sink in for me because I can honestly say every client and family that we have cared for becomes like family to us and make us feel like part of theirs.
I've posted here about Ted before, he was my first home care client, my breakfast and dinner date almost every day for over a year, my friend and my comic relief after a long day. It was an honor to help take care of him and I will miss him every day.

If you are looking for help for yourself or a loved one, we would be just as honored to help your family.

A company that learns together grows together. I definitely reworked a popular quote there but I think it works and more importantly it is true in home care. The more I learn as a leader positively affects my team and our clients. And the more my team learns improves their lives and the lives of our clients. Learning is a win-win-win.

We believe that all humans deserve to be treated with compassion, especially our elders who have birthed, fed, raised, educated and loved generations of the rest of us.
Here are just a few of the ways we strive to bring the compassion and I'm looking for new ways on the daily.
