WE may be getting older, but we still love the magic of Christmas. One of the best things about it is the exchanging of gifts. During this Covid-Normal Christmas Season, consider a gift that enhances the independence of the recipient.
When you have older people visiting, ensure that the experience is least inconvenient for you as well as your guests. Reviewing the accessibility of the venue is a great place to start. Consider keeping a height adjustable chair or an aid at the toilet.
Our best Christmas story last year was that of Mary and John. Mary had trouble with her sleep. She experimented various solutions with little success. John was not ready for an electric home care bed.
So, they kept putting the decision off, until their family found a solution in the form of a Christmas present that was acceptable to both John and Mary.
Mary received a full function electric bed in a colour and style of her choice with the perfect mattress, while John got a companion bed of the same style and colour with no electric functions.
