Don’t Wait to Get Your Flu Shot! With flu season right around the corner there has never been a better time for everyone to get a flu shot. With the current coronavirus pandemic on the rise again, it’s especially vital for seniors to take every precaution from getting sick. Many retail and doctor office locations still have plenty of flu shots readily available, yet it’s all about supply and demand. Don’t wait until flu season is in full swing as those flu shots will stead...ily decrease or potentially run out. Your senior’s health depends on it. If you need assistance in getting your senior to get their annual flu shot, please visit https://socialmedia.alwaysbestcare.com/ and we will be happy to arrange transportation. #FluShot #Health #Transportation #WeCanHelp #SeniorCare #Aging #Elderly #DontWait #AlwaysBestCare #Prevention #StayHealthy #WearAMask #Caregiver

#Humpday If you have a #senior who can't see the small print on a phone or remote try this #quicktip! Draw the same area bigger on a separate piece of paper so that they can read the words and see it better. It will be so much easier for them to refer to the picture so they know exactly what button they are pressing. This incredibly decreases the amount of #confusion. In this case we went from not knowing how to check messages on the phone to becoming a pro in a matter of minutes! All it took was bit of creativity, patience, and practice! #caregivers #seniorliving #eldercare #inhomecare #homehealth #retirment #nurse #aging #dementia #alzheimers

The thought of going into retirement may seem like you’re giving up a big chunk of your identitybut actually, quite the opposite is true. Rather than seeing retirement as being a time in which you’re living with a weaker sense of purpose in life, think of it as a period where you have additional free time to use however you want.
