Seniors can be cared for in the home. A successful caregiver is one who truly has the heart and willingness to help those in need. They do not provide care in search of recognition or money. A true caregiver provides care because they feel the need to help those less fortunate to make their days a bit brighter and manageable.
The basic duties of in-home caregivers are:
· Assist with Hygiene Management (bathing, grooming, dressing, Skin Care, etc.)
· Assist in transferring, repositioning, ambulating, etc.
· Meal planning and preparation
· Pick up or light housecleaning, laundry and linen changing
· Implement Instructions from Hospice
· Provide comfort and supervision
· Medication supervision and administration
· Assist with Physical Therapy or range of motion
· Run Errands (grocery shopping, pharmacy pick-up, doctor appointments, etc.)

When I reached 89 years of age my children arranged for me to live in an old folks home.
These issues have to do with the decline in the elderly of their ability to function normally. Should an elderly patient have his car keys taken away or should he or she still be permitted to drive? Should an elderly patient be removed from his or her home and placed in a nursing home or is he or she still able to function well living alone? Should an elderly patient be given an expensive operation if he or she will only live long enough to enjoy its benefits for a short time even if it is successful. Very, very hard decisions to make. .
The Folks Who Live On the Hill was created in 1937.
Most of the elderly citizens who live at home face financial constraints. Most are dependent on family members and government aid. Consequently, they face social exclusion as they have inadequate healthcare. They lack good housing and live in unsafe neighborhoods.
Home care is intended for the elderly who live out on their own but still need help and it mainly depends on where you live but some are Senior Helpers, BJC Home Care Services, and CareMinders.
The possibilities for elderly care in the UK are very much like what is offered in North America. There are options such as having home care if one is well enough to live on their own. There is also the option of an aged home or assisted living.

You should be living at home at 14. You are too young to live on your own at that age.
I live in England but if you have an old folks home for old people then you can wash dishes and read the newpaper for them??
