There Is Something Special About Caring for An Elderly Loved One

For many, caring for an elderly loved one is met with pleasure. The ability to give back to your parent(s) after the many years they cared for you can be an amazing experience. However, it can be harder work than many are ready for. A recent AARP study found that the average family caregiver invests more than 40 hours per week providing respite care for their loved one.

The AARP study also found that:

• Average time spent caring for a loved one approx. 24.4 hours
• Family caregivers spend over 41 hours caring for a loved one
• Partners spend an average of 44.6 hours caring for their spouse or partner

Our Caregivers Are Amazing People

As a premier provider of senior respite care services, Comfort Keepers is proud to have some of the industry's most dedicated and amazing caregivers. Our caregivers are licensed, bonded, and insured, have undergone a stringent background investigation, and have all the training needed to make them the best in the home care business.

Here are a few suggestions that might make getting started a little easier:

• Choose the place and time to talk very carefully
• You must realize you aren't likely to succeed after the first conversation
• Make your questions as directly as possible
• Use questions designed to guide your loved one to the "right" conclusion
• Be sure you listen to their concerns and points of view
• Do your homework and be ready to offer several options and any potential care schedules
• Focus your conversations on the many benefits of care for both you and your loved one
• Be sure you emphasize that you will not abandon them and will continue being their primary family caregiver.
