Senior Support Services

Very exciting to be on CHCH News this morning sharing our passion and love for what we do. Spencer and I could have never imagined being where we are today. Thank you for everyone who cheers us on and supports our company. Let’s keep changing the way we care for our seniors!

Tune in tomorrow morning to @chchtv at 7:00am - 10:00am. Spencer and I will be playing fun games on the morning show with Tim and talking about our book and company!

Some very exciting news Spencer and I are thrilled to share. The Alzheimer's Podcast hosted by Christy Turner has been something we have idolized for years. The idea of ever being a guest on her show was something we never imagined. We took a chance and reached out in March and was given the opportunity to appear on her podcast. Please take 20 minutes of your day to listen to episode 145, where you will hear Spencer, and I talk about our book "Any Game For Any Brain." Thank you for your endless support. https://podcasts.apple.com//the-alzheimers-p/id1236479650

Here at Senior Support Services we love reading with our clients Individuals in the middle-to-late stages of their dementia may enjoy listening to someone read out loud to them, or looking through a book together. Or they may also enjoy flipping through a familiar magazine from when they were younger or even from their career. #dementiacare #readingtherapy

The coronavirus pandemic has put our senior’s health and wellness at the forefront of conversations today. Because older adults are especially vulnerable to severe complications from COVID-19, we have been putting extra attention on keeping them as safe as possible, which has been excellent. However, unfortunately, we see the side effects of social isolation for our older adults, including depression, anxiety, confusion, and general loneliness. It is often very stressful know...ing the right thing to do with visits and helping them in their home. At Senior Support Services, all staff are highly trained and experienced in providing compassionate person-centered care effectively and safely for you or your loved one. We believe in the importance of open and transparent communication with family members. We understand how important it is for compatibility between the client and the caregiver; therefore, our caregivers are carefully chosen for each client. If you are interested in learning more about how we might be able to support your loved one, please reach out to 519-770-5503 or email [email protected].
