Here are some great self-care gifts to treat a special caregiver in your life.

Caregiving is filled with love, but it can also lead to burnout and a lack of self-care. Why not pamper caregivers with these 10 sweet gifts?

-Flip phones
-Minimalist phones
-Phones designed with simplicity in mind (yes, these are different from minimalist phones)

For a breakdown on all these types of phones, check out our guide here.

We describe the different types of cell phones and offer the necessary information to help you decide which one might best suit your needs.

Eating nutritious meals becomes more difficult with age:

-Possible mobility issues getting in the way (not just in the kitchen but also in the grocery store and the infamous task of carrying grocery bags into the home).
-Lack of motivation to prepare three meals per day (asking "What's for dinner?" got old over a decade ago).
-Transportation may be unreliable (seniors who no longer drive or feel uncomfortable driving may avoid leaving home).
-Budget concerns (fresh produce and quality ingredients aren't always fixed-budget-friendly).

For all the above reasons and more, it's important to know the nutrition assistance options that seniors have when living at home. We explain ways seniors can get help meeting all the challenges we list above. See our article for details.

Proper nutrition can be difficult, especially for older adults aging in place. Here are ways seniors can get nutrition assistance at home.
