Your Guide to a Joyful Caregiving Thanksgiving in Nebraska

Thanksgiving is a time for family, but for those hosting and juggling caregiving, it can be stressful. At StayHome.Care, we believe love and care should flow in, and stress should flow out. This holiday season, we want to help Nebraska's family caregivers find peace.

The Top 3 Tips for a Peaceful Holiday

1. Plan Ahead and Delegate: 

Preparation is the key to a smooth day. Don't do it all yourself! Create a shared task list for family to manage cooking, cleaning, and decorating. Also, discuss and accommodate your loved one's dietary needs. Consider alternatives like meal delivery to reduce cooking stress.

2. Prioritize Comfort and Routine: 

Maintain consistency for your elderly loved one, especially if they have cognitive impairments. Stick to familiar schedules for meals and naps, and designate a quiet space where they can retreat if the gathering becomes overwhelming.

3. Ask for and Accept Help : 

You don't have to do it alone. The holidays amplify caregiving demands. StayHome.Care offers professional holiday senior care in Nebraska, providing trained caregivers for assistance, meals, and companionship. Our services provide invaluable respite, ensuring you can enjoy the holiday too.



This Thanksgiving, let StayHome.Care help you make it a truly joyful occasion.
