When celebrating the holidays, society’s message to us is that the grander, flashier, brighter and more expensive the experience, the better. But for family caregivers, especially those in the sandwich generation who are busy taking care of both elderly parents and their own children and husband or wife, trying to meet these expectations can be daunting without the help of stress free home care.
But take heart; there is an alternate method to enjoy the holiday with seniors that’s likely to be more warmly received and treasured: simplifying. Cutting back on all of the holiday plans and activities can be surprisingly rewarding, prompting more emphasis and attention on building up family bonds – something our high tech lifestyle so desperately needs.
