However, caregiving can be physically and emotionally demanding, and professional help may be needed. Home health aides are professional caregivers who help seniors with daily living activities such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and medication reminders. They may also perform basic health-related tasks like checking vital signs.

They often work in coordination with a senior's healthcare team to provide a comprehensive home health care plan. Physical, occupational, and speech therapists can provide vital services to elderly patients at home. Physical therapists focus on mobility and pain management, occupational therapists assist with activities of daily living, and speech therapists can help with swallowing difficulties and communication issues often faced by seniors.

They navigate the healthcare system, connect families with resources, and can help make long-term care decisions. Social workers provide essential emotional support, assist with healthcare navigation, and connect seniors with community resources. They can help address issues like isolation and mental health concerns that often affect older adults.
