Caring for loved ones at home is both rewarding, and challenging. Sometimes caregivers are unaware of all the medical aides, products and supplies that are available to help them care for a loved one. Here are some examples of very practical items that are not expensive, yet, very helpful. (Bed rail, bath/shower seat, audio monitor, bath & cleansing cloths, dental swabs, lightweight wheelchair, washable underpads for bedding, disposable underpads for bedding, shower safety mats, sani-pant moisture brief cover ups, raised tiolet set, shampoo basin)
These are just a few items that could make a big difference in caregiving. Remember caregivers, you deserve a bit of assistance as well. Visit our Products and Supplies page on our website.
Another resource for seniors who served in the military would be the Veteran Services Division, a division of the Veterans Administration. They can provide information on eligibility of benefits and Senior Citizens Aide offer referrals to other agencies.
