  1. 5 Tips for Planning an Outing for Loved Ones in Memory Care Facilities **************************************************************** While vacations are fun anyway, they are more remarkable when you take one with your loved one/s living in a memory care facility. Depending on your loved one and availability, you can plan a short or long trip. If you’re looking for a place for a one-day trip, there are many places in El Dorado County. Memory care in El Dorado County, like Blissful Gardens, is a beautiful place that your loved one may enjoy living in. In this article, we’ve mentioned a few tips to plan an outing with your loved ones in a memory care facility. Plan it around your loved ones’ good and bad times If your loved one has Alzheimer’s disease or any other type of dementia, you may have discovered bad and good times of the day. Before planning a trip, consider this and their medication schedules and testing needs. Taking your loved one out is safe after you’ve figured this out. Pack snacks and other essentials Whether you’re covering a short distance or planning on a long drive, it’s a good idea to pack a bag with food items and other essentials. Your trip may take longer than you think so it’s crucial to also put bleach wipes, a small first aid kit, garbage bag, change for toll roads and other essentials. Take breaks When going on a trip, it’s important to consider the availability of rest areas or other places to take a break and maybe do a little stretching. If you’re not familiar with the area you’re taking a trip to, there are many online ways to plan the route too. Research destinations before taking the trip Do your research ahead of time about the destinations. Are you looking for outdoor activity or want to stay indoors? Once you figure out your interest, you can start looking for destinations. For example, you can take your loved one to a lake or a beach if they like to roam on beaches or they’re fond of water bodies. Consider distance Before figuring out the destination, always consider how far your loved one can actually ride in a car. Consider whether they can stay overnight, how far they can safely travel, etc. to have a safe and enjoyable trip. Also consult their doctors before going for the trip.
