Traveling During the Holidays with Home Care

Don’t leave home without a caregiver if you intend to travel on long trips to see your children and grandchildren.  If you have high blood pressure and a history of stroke or heart disease, you can avoid getting heart attacks from the stress of traveling.  Do you have an elderly loved one who has early stages of Alzheimer’s or Dementia and lives alone?  You can send them a gift of a traveling companion while they can still go on long or short trips, depending on their doctor’s recommendations.  A-1 Home Care will assist your parents, grandparents, or in-laws with travel preparations before, during, and after the trip.

Companion Care for Safe Travels

Are you concerned that your elderly loved one might buy the wrong airline ticket and end up wandering in the wrong airport?  Is she forgetful about her medications?  Do you feel overwhelmed with taking care of your aging parent as you prepare your own checklist for holiday travels?  Do you need an extra pair of hands and feet to help you while you get your kids situated for the trip?  A-1 Home Care assists the elderly and their families with travel preparation tasks such as coming up with a list of things to bring on the trip, getting the senior loved one’s medication ready, arranging for transportation for departure and arrival, confirming reservations, and more.  Our companions, caregivers, certified nurse aides, and home health aides come to you with a wide range of experiences and skills to ensure safe and smooth travels.

A-1 Home Care Offers Flexible Scheduling

If your flight gets delayed or canceled, A-1 Home Care will work with your schedule and extend caregiver services for as long as you need.  We understand that changes happen all the time, especially around the holidays when airports get super busy.  A-1 Home Care’s traveling companions will make sure that your elderly loved ones stay hydrated during the trip and in-between waiting periods at the airport.  A-1 Home Care provides 24-hour live-in caregiver service for seniors throughout Los Angeles and Orange County.
