The cells get worn out and are unable to bring out new cells\u00a0this way, we are dying daily and at a faster rate as a result of inactivity.<\/p><p>Here are some of the ADL (activities of daily living):walking, shaving, eating, bathing, excercise etc. Seniors should be encouraged to\u00a0do these activities daily with as much independence as possible. Irrespective of the category that the senior falls under:<br \/>dependent senior.semi-dependent and the fully independent senior.<\/p><p>Most seniors are left to seat all through the day or to be in their room and in bed all through the day. We are not helping them\u00a0to remain alive that way, rather we are fast tracking their death day. We must ensure we bring them back to their normal life as much as possible.<\/p><p>The question is, what does he or she love doing most? what are their hobbies? what gives them joy and fulfillment?\u00a0If you can get the answers to the questions above,then you can surely help to bring out the best in them.\u00a0For example, he or she loves playing football, or loves drawing, cooking, sewing clothes, writing or teaching. He or she must be\u00a0encouraged to get involved in these activities and by so doing they are active and will still live a productive and fulfilled lives.<\/p><p>A senior can still be very useful to themselves,the family and the community. They can still be that mentor or hero that every one\u00a0is looking upto and admire and wants to listen to. We need to create time for them. We need to listen to them,we need to show them love\u00a0and make them know that they are still needed around. Most seniors are neglected and no one seems to care. They still have talents within them\u00a0that we all need to harness and take advantage of. If we don\u2019t, they will die with all those beautiful qualities that could have been put to use\u00a0and we will regret it at the end of the day.Imagine a brilliant senior that could have passed knowledge down to the upcoming generation if he or she\u00a0while still alive and opportuned to do so. The wisdom and the experience of their days will help our own generation to do things the right way.<br \/>We will as well learn from their own mistakes to avoid such. That the senior cannot talk anymore does not mean that he or she is no longer useful,\u00a0encourage writing. The senior can no longer see, encourage talking, teaching, singing and dancing and so on. You have to be creative.<\/p><p>We have seen seniors that are still very useful and active.They still play games, sing, dance, interact with friends, participate actively\u00a0in their community.Some still do business,teach adults and children,cook for the entire house, decorate the house, water the garden,\u00a0draw, paint, write and offer high quality services such as barbing for others, baking, farming etc. They are still role models and have received\u00a0awards for being very active and useful to the society even at old age.<\/p><p>We at\u00a0<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><a style=\"color: #ff0000;\" href=\"https:\/\/rockgardenehr.com\/blog\/\">Rockgarden Homecare agency<\/a>\u00a0<\/span>have highly skilled,trained and experienced individuals who understand the seniors and will ensure we bring out the best in them.\u00a0We understand the challenges seniors have especially when they have conditions such as dementia, depression, schizophrenia, bipolar disorders, just to mention\u00a0a few coupled with mobility issues.
