Why Should One Hire An Old Age Caretaker?


“Extremes are easy. Strive For Balance”, quoted by an international speaker- Colin Wright justifies the evaluation of a person's success via the maintenance of harmony between personal and professional life. Wise is a man who holds an ideal balance between his career objectives and social responsibilities that may vary from going for a vacation with his spouse to taking care of parents' physical, emotional & mental well-being. Neither of them should be neglected, as imbalance leads to distress and discontentment.

In a high-paced life to achieve financial freedom, an individual tends to sidestep his family responsibilities. At one extreme, they have a business or nive-to-five responsibilities, while at another extreme, they hold the bag of child and elderly care. This disharmonies their professional & family commitments and thus increases stress.

However, at no cost, earning can be labeled inconsiderable as although money can't buy you all the happiness, it plays a significant role in fulfilling the domestic responsibilities like paying fees for a child's education, hiring a caretaker, etc. Wealth can help you buy facilities for your family, however, vice-versa is not true i.e. meeting the family obligations can't bring you bucks and will ultimately make your heirs & assigns have a bad time.

With the technological revolution when the working patterns have transformed, some new concepts like family caregivers have also emerged and put up the dough in them reflects the investment made for work-life balance.

Aging is a natural process and life’s inescapable fact which drastically alters the physical, mental & emotional health of our parents stepping in the sensitive age. This is the stage when our beloved seniors need the best care and it can be offered to them by hiring a professional elderly caregiver.

In fact, it is a great idea to endow an expert attendant to the elderly constituents of the family because they are much more versed than us about personal care & hygiene, risk factors, bathing, continence & toileting and adjustment of body postures.

These trained attendants have good knowledge about nutrition & hydration, bowel incontinence, and basic exercises and they ensure timely medication, right physical mechanics, while lifting, masterly movement from bed to chair, and other day-to-day care.

Besides, they take care of the mental health of the aging population and help them combat emotional challenges like social & spiritual distress, restlessness, delirium, emotional withdrawal, and so on.

We are making strides in every aspect of life and a way to upgrade our care for the ageing community is to appoint a professional care-taker which not only promises the effective fulfilment of daily living needs of our elderly parents but also offers a quality life and emotional & physical wellness to them. Backed by experience, knowledge & proficiency, these professional care-givers also provide you with quality time to spend with your forerunners while their needs are pre-met by them.

An array of caregivers’ responsibilities include care-plan preparation, meal preparation, mobility assistance & transportation, medical monitoring & access, help with housekeeping, and practical demonstration of exercises.

Many caregiver platforms, like mud (MadeUrDay), work intending to deliver the top-quality fostering, therapeutic, and physiotherapy services to senior parents at home. MadeUrDay (mud) offers compassionate caretakers with clinical fineness.

A professional caretaker can be appointed on a part-time or full-time basis, depending on your exclusive needs. Besides, specialized caregivers like certified old age caretakers or geriatric caretakers are also available to meet the peculiar needs. 

A caretaker helps you excellently deal with the challenge of providing care to the elderly or ailing sweethearts and ultimately bolsters your bond & affinity with them.

Covid-19 has been encountered to be highly ill-boding for the elderly and children. But why? Why are the elderly parents and kids not immune to Covid-19 ? Let us read. Whether it's China, Italy or India, it has been witnessed that the novel corona virus contaminates the elderly people and the young ones the most.  Two primary reasons contribute to this age-specific corona virus contamination viz. Immunity and Self-Healing powers.  It is a science-based fact that immunity reduces with the increase in age and the newborns also have low immunity power.  DNA is a genetic element that monitors most functions of the human body, however, it behaves sluggishly in newborns and elderly and so does not quickly & successfully go up against alien particles that enter the body.
