When you consider that, on average, seniors with chronic conditions fill 50 different prescriptions annually, it is not difficult to imagine how someone could get confused when a new medication is added to their regimen. Caregivers can not only remind seniors to take medications as prescribed, but they can also help seniors keep a list of those medications and their dosages so the information is readily available for healthcare professionals. Managing medications is one of the best ways a caregiver can help seniors. Let us help: 712.256.5800

Have you considered getting a pet? Great news! As we get older, maintaining a routine becomes increasingly important, and pets thrive on routine and require regular feeding, exercise, and care. Having a pet encourages seniors to establish and adhere to a daily schedule. This structured routine provides a sense of purpose and helps seniors maintain cognitive abilities and mental alertness. Caring for a pet's needs helps seniors maintain a sense of responsibility and control, enhancing their overall quality of life.

Sundowning, or late-day confusion, behaviors can be verbal or physical. They can occur suddenly, with no apparent reason, or predictably result from a frustrating situation. While it can be hard to cope with, it can help when you realize that the person with Alzheimer's or dementia is not acting aggressively on purpose. Let us help you.

Sundowning is a symptom of Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia, most often affecting people who have mid- and late-stage dementia. It is confusion and agitation that worsens late in the afternoon and evening when the sun goes down. Our Comfort Keepers are specially training to help address these symptoms. If you or a loved one needs help, please contact us: 712.256.5800

Unusual skin growths often happen in areas regularly exposed to the sun. Many doctors include a skin check as part of a regular exam and recommend monthly home checks as well. Here are a few things to look for when checking the skin at home:

✅ A new mole or growth on the skin that is a weird shape or has different colors or shades
✅ Any mole or growth that changes in size, shape, or color
✅ A mole or growth that is larger than a pencil eraser
✅ A sore that does not heal within a few weeks
✅ A spot or growth that is itchy, painful, or bleeds

While not all skin changes or growths are cancerous, having any concerns checked out by a doctor as soon as possible is always a good idea. If you need assistance getting yourself to an appointment, we can help. Just call the office: 712.256.5800
