COVID SERVICES FOR SENIORS AND FAMILIES
Undoubtedly, Covid-19 has changed our lives in many ways. We now use terms like "social distancing" and "Pandemic" in our everyday language. Finding basic necessities, like toilet paper, has become a priority. We are even using those funny looking bandanas from the '70's to cover our faces! However, one thing has remained unchanged - the need to care for each other and our loved ones.
During this Pandemic, we have watched our aging population become some of the most vulnerable to the virus. Traditional methods of caring for our loved ones has come to an abrupt halt. Everything from virtual appointments, to locked doors at care communities, have made it nearly impossible to participate in their care. At Optimal Aging Advisors we remain committed to advocating for seniors and providing peace of mind to their families. Below are just a few of the ways we continue to assist during this pandemic.
• Navigate the current restrictions to advocate and assist in obtaining information about your loved one from professionals.
• Act as a liaison between providers and your loved one during virtual appointments.
• Address the care concerns you have about your aging family member.
• Strategize with families or professionals about care needs for an aging person.
• Implement our Life Enhancement Program to promote cognitive agility.
• Support YOU when you say, "HELP! My parents are NOT making good decisions during a PANDEMIC!"
