Use this time to observe your loved one and know the signs of when additional help is needed
As you visit your loved one this holiday season, it is important to use this time not only to enjoy the time with them but also to observe their living environment, physical health and mental/emotional well-being.
Here are a few of top warning signs that you or your loved one might benefit from additional help in the home:
Changes in Balance or Mobility Are they having a more difficult time getting around?
Significant Weight Changes Do you notice significant weight gain or weight loss?
Emotional Well-Being Detecting depression, especially over the phone, can be difficult. Learn what to look for.
Living Conditions Is the mail piling up? Are they keeping up with the household needs?
If you are concerned that your loved one might need help managing their house or caring for themselves – give us a call at 781-245-1880 or visit us online at abchhp.com. ABC Home Healthcare has been helping to keep Cape Ann seniors safe at home for nearly 20 years. We would be honored to help you too.
Crystal Healing is a technique that uses precisely placed crystals either on and/or around the physical body. Crystals may also be laid in precise geometric patterns within the environment. Crystals absorb, focus, direct, detoxify, shift, and diffuse energy as they interact with the electromagnetic forces and subtle vibrations within the subtle human or environmental energy field. The main influence for healing is the chakra philosophy of disease caused by energy imbalances. All participants will take home a crystal to practice crystal healing on their own! Register
