Elder Care in [Your Service Area]
Shannon Carter
[Your Home Care Business] was wonderful with my mother. The caregiver’s sunny personality brightened up Mom’s day. And they were so patient with Mom’s dementia. I couldn’t have asked for more.

The hospital gave us very little notice that they were going to discharge Dad home. We weren’t ready at all. But [Your Home Care Business] jumped right in. They understood his needs following surgery which allowed my sister and I to go back to work knowing Dad was well-cared for.
Maria Fuentes
My dad was in the service. [Your Home Care Business] was able to work with the VA to help us get him Aid and Attendance benefits. Thank goodness they knew what to do. Now the VA is paying for his home care.
Strategies for better aging
Swollen legs and feet
Many older adults experience swollen legs and feet. For some, it’s because of sitting a lot and leading a sedentary lifestyle. For others, it’s the water retention side effect of a medication. And for others, the swelling—called “edema”—is a symptom of a chronic or even serious illness such as heart failure or liver or kidney disease.
Does brain training work?
The brain is another organ to keep fit, and regular workouts are a good thing! Our brains enable many types of thinking: Problem solving, planning, attention, and memory. They manage our emotions and help us understand the emotions of others. Our brains also control movement (balance, speed, and coordination). And it’s where we process our spatial awareness—used for packing a suitcase or reading a map.
