4 Questions to Ask Your Group Home
Every person has unique needs. But we all share a common core of needs, which should not be forgotten as we think of senior care. These include physical, intellectual, emotional, and spiritual needs. So how do we address these four elements in a home-health care environment?

Here are some questions to ask the home-health management before entrusting Mom or Dad’s needs to others:

How will my parent get physical exercise?
Physical needs go beyond having the basic comforts of life. We all need to be moving. What will the care facility do to address range of motion and cardiovascular exercise? Even when someone is immobile, your loved one will be given the chance to change positions. Find out what is part of the daily routine to keep physical needs met.

What are the activities available to keep Mom’s mind active?
Is there Scrabble or Bingo night? It doesn’t have to be games. Maybe it’s listening to or playing music. Perhaps a library, book reading, or allowance for personal items in the room to peruse. Also would there be chances for stimulating conversation with other residents, visitors or staff? When our minds are inactive, depression can quickly set in. That is why it is so important to give opportunity for keeping our loved ones’ mind exercised as well as bodies in a care facility.

What happens when my parent is having a rough day?
Yes, bad days come to all people. We also need affirmation of the person we have been and are becoming until that final day. Our elder years can be a time for reflection, which may bring regrets as well as joy. It’s important to have access to emotional support at such times of reflection.

What is the potential for making friends? What are the visiting hours for you and relatives? If friends and relatives are not available, with whom will your parent be able to talk about his or her ups and downs? A smaller care facility can have its advantages with staff and others more easily aware and accessible to meet the emotional needs of residents. 

Can my parent feel comfortable practicing his religion or lack of one?
Traditionally, a nursing home is large enough to hold a chapel where residents can attend their particular style of worship service. If you’re looking into a smaller facility, is there opportunity for a religious service? Does a priest or other person from a religious community make visits to those who request it? How will the staff show respect for your loved one’s beliefs?

We will always have needs. The spiritual and emotional needs can intensify as we get older, which may surprise those around us who think these things could be disregarded because of age. The intellectual and physical needs are like muscles that must be exercised or we become incapable. Take the time to consider these needs and ask the tough questions so that Mom or Dad can continue living a healthy life in their new home.

Reno Senior Care: 10 Reasons It’s Time

When to Make the Move to Home Care


1. Loss of mobility. While we are growing older, it is best to keep moving on our own. But if getting around is extremely difficult without a walking aid and falls are inevitable, it may be time for a move to home care.

2. A consistent need for special medical equipment or devices. If daily tasks such as eating, bathing or getting around require using heavy equipment or specialized devices, a home care facility can provide this equipment and the necessary amount of trained staff to assure the safe and proper use of medical equipment.

3. Extreme forgetfulness. If it is no longer safe to assume all the burners on the stove are going to be turned off after use, it is time for our loved one to be in a place where he or she won’t need to be responsible for cooking. A home care facility is that place.

4. Confusion. Different situations arise that may be a threat to your loved one or put others at risk. Can he or she properly assess risks and call 911 in case of emergency? Does he or she know their physical address and phone number? If not, moving to a home care facility should be considered.

5. Personal hygiene. A loved one who cannot take care of his own brushing hair, shaving, brushing of teeth, or changing of clothes from day to day, should consider moving to a home care facility. The staff can help him maintain his dignity.

6. Dependence. If the housekeeping, meal preparation, along with personal care is too much for your loved one, it may be time to move to a home care facility. There are ways to bring these services to your loved one, but sometimes a home care facility is an overall better route.

7. You feel worn out. If you are assisting your loved one and feel it is too much for one person, it is time to call a home care facility and allow them to lift the burden so that you can focus on loving your family member and taking care of yourself.

8. Finances. It may be more cost-effective to move into a home care facility if the necessary services are adding up.

9. Distance. If you cannot relocate to be closer and there is no other relative near to help your loved one, it’s time to consider home care. He or she will gain the advantage of not living in isolation, while having access to needed socialization with caregivers and other residents.

10. Desire. If your parent or grandparent has been talking about making a move into an assisted living arrangement with home care, it’s time to explore that option.
