Our New Agency App

When it comes to caring for a senior parent or loved one, you will always go the extra mile; but, it is a lot to take on by yourself.  In some cases the time demands could be greater than you can handle on your own, or their personal care needs may be greater than you can provide.  Even though caring for a loved one is a meaningful act, you can’t let your own health, comfort, and personal life suffer.

It’s understandable that caring for a parent or senior loved one is a top priority in your life, but it’s important to make time for the other important things in your life.  It can be overwhelming to care for that special senior in your life.  The needs of a seniors care can take over and before you know it, it has consumed you.  You are stressed and caught between their care and your own well being.  Guilt sets in and that brings on even more stress.  You are caught up in a whirlwind of emotions and tasks.  You become less productive and your own well being begins to suffer.  You begin to miss work or your work suffers, you can’t spend time with your kids, you can’t run errands and your whole life begins to suffer.

The more you put off caring for yourself the more likely you are to experience caregiver burnout.  You become stressed, depressed, and anxiety begins to take its toll.  Your health begins to suffer as well.  You are pulled in so many directions you don’t know whether you are coming or going.  You need help and hiring a caregiver may be just what you and your senior loved one needs.  You need a break and that is called respite care.  Respite care gives you a chance to relax and get the rest that you need to recharge.  Self-care is vital for your well being and could be hugely beneficial for you and your senior loved one.  It may be just what the doctor ordered to get you back to being the parent, child, companion that you and they deserve.
