This is the gift-giving season; a time filled with joy and goodwill. This is the time of year when most families get together and spend time with one another. There’s usually laughter and good food to be shared and many look forward to the memories that are sure to be made. This time of year is a great time to think of those who might find getting around to these festivities a bit difficult to do on their own. If you have an elderly loved one who would love to be more active in their community and get out and about more often, this is the time of year to give the gift of help.
The gift of help doesn’t have to come in the form of a long term commitment; it can be simply a ride to and from the local mall for shopping and dining out. This time of year offers a wide range of opportunities for your elderly loved one to engage with other people through social gatherings within their community. Research shows that social ties keep people healthy by limiting stress levels, providing emotional support and helping your loved one keep their irreplaceable level of independence. This holiday season is the perfect time to carve out time to spend with those we love.
