“You want each person to enjoy their day, no matter what their challenges are.”

After more than 40 years advocating for individuals with disabilities and helping families keep loved ones at home, Marie thought she had retired for good. But she missed the connection. In 2020, she joined Home Instead — and families are so glad she did.

Marie learned to count in Japanese so she and her client could do physical therapy exercises together, cheering at the end and even playing balloon volleyball (their record is 54 volleys!). Families call her a “walking angel” for the calm, creativity, and gentle humor she brings to those living with dementia or Parkinson’s.

Through music, crafts, movement, and meaningful connection, Marie helps every day feel joyful, meaningful, and full of dignity.

“It’s really fantastic just to know that the work that I do counts.”

When Maureen joined Home Instead in 2019, advocacy and caregiving became her daily work. She has prevented choking incidents, caught a client mid-fall on a staircase, and sat through long, emotional afternoons with those facing Parkinson’s, dementia, or hospice. Families rely on her when situations feel overwhelming because she brings steadiness, practical skill, and a presence that helps people feel less alone.

It’s not always one big moment. Sometimes it’s small changes that add up.

If you’re noticing things like:
• Skipping meals or losing interest in cooking • Forgetting medications or bills
• More frequent falls
• Trouble getting up from chairs
• Changes in hygiene or mobility
• Memory concerns or a dementia diagnosis …it may be time to explore additional support.

Home care doesn’t mean giving up independence. It means protecting it — with the right help, right at home.
If you’re unsure what’s next, let’s talk it through. 💚

Dad has a new girlfriend… now what? 😳

It can feel surprising. Maybe even a little uncomfortable. But growing older doesn’t mean growing out of the need for companionship and love.

In this episode of Caregiver Chats, Dr. Lakelyn talks with April Ibarra about what it looks like to respect independence and why these conversations work best when we come to the table as a partner, not a parent.

Women are often behind the scenes, doing it all—caregiving, household chores, career, and everything in between.

Nearly two-thirds of caregivers are women (61%), carrying a disproportionate share of emotional and physical labor (AARP). The hard work of caregiving should be more visible and a shared responsibility—not something that often falls on women.

Beyond International Women’s Day, let’s recognize the invisible load so many women carry and work toward a future where care is more balanced. And to every caregiver—make space for the rest, joy, and support you deserve.💚
