It’s Time for a Tea Party!

Caregiver in Wooster OH

June is National Iced Tea Month. What better way to celebrate than to have a tea party with mom! If your elderly mom likes to dress up and likes tea, you can have a party. It’s pretty warm in June, even if

you live in an area that doesn’t have really hot summers, so iced tea is a great beverage to enjoy. Keep in mind what kinds of foods she likes when planning the event.

Of course, there’s also the decorations and where you want to hold the party. The kind of party you have will depend on your mom’s health and mobility, as not every senior can leave the house and get around easily. If your mom isn’t too mobile anymore, you can also bring the party to her. Be sure to enlist the help of anyone who wants to be involved to make it easier, especially the caregiver.  Not only can he or she help with the planning, but having her caregiver there can make it easier for your mom if she needs help with eating or drinking.

A summer iced tea party is a great way to spend time with your mom, and there’s no reason you couldn’t have a tea party with your senior dad or another older relative, too. It can be hard to see a parent getting older and slowing down, but it’s made a little easier when you know they have a caregiver who’s watching out for them.

A caregiver can help with performing daily tasks and tending to personal care.  This can include fixing meals, bathing, dressing, and using the bathroom. Making sure medications are giving at the right time and taking your loved one to appointments, shopping, and to other places are also important parts of what a caregiver will do for your loved one.  Having a caregiver can make things much easier for your aging relative, not to mention helping you focus on work and other important tasks without worrying about your elderly mom or dad so much. The peace of mind everyone feels from an in-home caregiver is something you just can’t get any other way.
