"Providing respite care for my receiver has been a blessing in many ways. He is intent upon maintaining his functions, so exercising with him is a joy, not a burden. He is stronger now than I first came to the house, which makes me feel like I am helping to extend the quality and quantity of his life. It's fun to share stories of our pasts and I enjoy reading to him from books about his favorite subject, history, which is also one of my favorites. We lunch accompanied by music furnished by the family's Alexa device. All this makes doing some chores seem like a very small burden. And his wife has been able to get out to see friends and go to other activities, which is good for her morale. It feels good to be doing this work."
"Sylvie and her caregivers provide wonderful companionship and care for my wife, who is experiencing memory loss. They are not just there to do a job. Each caregiver creates a relationship with her of “best friends.” That personal companionship is as valuable as the physical care they provide. Sylvie is personally involved and very responsive to changing circumstances. Highly recommended."
"I was so glad when I came across this great organization to help my mom. She so looked forward to the time they spent with her. I knew when they were with my mom that she had someone there to assist her. And it made my life so much easier. Thank you."
“For many elderlies, the pandemic really sent their feelings of loneliness and isolation right through the roof! No one should have to combat loneliness. Sometimes the only thing you can do is give yourself. I enjoy my Seniors Helping Seniors® client’s stories of their past. Just listening to what they have lived through and hearing their views of the present and the future can be an eye-opening experience. I really enjoy my visits! I hope that my presence is one of their presents for the week. Being a senior myself, the benefits work both ways.”
“I‘ve been enjoying my role at Seniors Helping Seniors® in-home care services for a few months now. I really find the assignments to be fun and insightful. You feel your visit quickly becomes an important piece of your Seniors Helping Seniors® client’s week and you both end up looking forward to the time together.”
“I have always enjoyed talking to the elderly. They are a wealth of knowledge having lived through the Depression and World War II. I ask my clients where they were when Pearl Harbor happened. Seniors Helping Seniors® client are really the greatest Generation.”
