Society and Companion Decreasing mobility or fear of falls are reasons for many seniors to leave their own homes less and less. As a result, important appointments - such as with the doctor or at the pharmacy - are often neglected. Social contacts and healthy outdoor exercise are also becoming increasingly rare. Accompanied by a helper, seniors can move safely and comfortably outside their homes. From an important doctor's appointment to a social senior's meeting or a reliable travel companion - hire a helper for your health and stay fit. Dementia Care Dementia care is a particularly important area as many seniors with dementia or Alzheimer's have special needs. Activating the person being cared for through shared activities, designing the daily routine, society, accompanying on walks, and taking appointments together can support and relieve those affected and their families. Forgetfulness and a decline in memory are usually the first symptoms noticed in Alzheimer's dementia. As the disease progresses, this condition deteriorates increasingly. The disease affects the person at their core, in their personality: it erases the past, destroys orientation in the present, and takes away the future. Independently living with dementia is almost impossible without help - the support and care needs of one's own family are difficult to manage. Get help! Caregiver family members often face the risk of overloading themselves in the face of this multiple burden. Because caring for loved ones is not only time-consuming, it is often emotionally demanding due to the closeness to the people being cared for. A break from everyday life is worth its weight in gold in such situations and should be consciously planned regularly by caregivers to avoid exceeding their own stress limits. Household Tasks A functioning household is a requirement for seniors to remain in their own homes. However, it is often the household tasks that elderly people become increasingly overwhelmed with. Cleaning the house is often neglected, shopping is only done irregularly, and cooking is no longer enjoyed due to a lack of strength or company, resulting in poor nutrition. Shopping, cleaning, washing, cooking - there's always something to do in a household. There are many helpers in the BenitaSana app that can support you and take care of everyday things at home.
