Friday morning, I got a call that one of my clients needed to go to the ER for urgent medical care, and she suggested he go to Franklin Woods Community Hospital, as it may be less busy than the Med Center. My client was only used to the med center, but agreed to give this hospital a try. We were immediately greeted by a friendly clerk. I parked the car, and before I could sit, he was being called back. They had him verified, blood drawn, IV inserted, monitored, and warmed within 5 minutes...the way an ER should run. During our 5 1/2 hour stay, he had only cordial and pleasant interactions with everyone we met. As the snow began, I planned to leave and get him a change of clothes that he needed from his home. The nurse was able to provide him with new PJ pants and a sweater, so I didn't have to leave him. The photo is what it looked like when we were leaving the ER and headed home. I am so grateful for the fantastic and quick care from this ER team. I was able to get us both home safely before the heavy snow hit. Thank you!

💜 Caregiving Changes Relationships — Here's How to Keep the Connection Strong

When you become a caregiver for a loved one, the relationship shifts. You might feel like you've become your parents' parent. They might feel frustrated about losing independence. These emotions are completely normal.

According to , here are some ways to navigate caregiving while preserving dignity and connection:

✨ Ask how they want to age — Start conversations that honor their wishes and goals.

✨ Let them make decisions — From what's for lunch to what's on TV, small choices protect their sense of autonomy.

✨ Introduce changes slowly — Plant seeds and give them time to adjust.

✨ Find joy together — Flip through photo albums, work on a puzzle, or listen to their stories (even if you've heard them before 💛).

Caregiving is hard. You don't have to figure it out alone.

At Private Duty Home Services, we're here to support both caregivers AND their loved ones with compassionate, professional care.

💛 Family Caregivers Need Support Too

Caring for a loved one is rewarding—but it can also be exhausting. Respite care allows family caregivers time for rest, recharge, and care for themselves.

You don’t have to do this alone.

🧠 Companionship Is Care

Loneliness affects both mental and physical health. Sometimes, the most important thing a caregiver offers is time, conversation, and genuine connection.

At Private Duty Home Services, LLC, care goes beyond tasks—it’s about presence.

🚨 5 Signs Your Loved One May Need Help at Home

Sometimes the signs are subtle. Here's what to watch for:

1️⃣ Unopened mail piling up
Bills unpaid? Important paperwork ignored?

2️⃣ Changes in personal hygiene
Same clothes worn repeatedly. Skipped showers.

3️⃣ Empty or expired food in the fridge
Forgetting to eat or shop for groceries.

4️⃣ New dents on the car
Driving may be becoming unsafe.

5️⃣ Increased isolation
Declining invitations. Not answering the phone.

These signs don't mean independence is over—they mean it's time for a little SUPPORT.

That's exactly what non-medical caregivers provide. 💛

Have you noticed any of these? You're not alone.

Support is not a weakness—it’s a loving choice.
