Nature of Caregiving

Nature of Caregiving
Caregiving takes many forms. Many of us help older, sick, or disabled family members and friends every day. We know we are helping, but we don't think of ourselves as caregivers. We are glad to do this and feel rewarded by it, but if the demands are heavy, over time we can also become exhausted and stressed. We think we should be able to handle caregiving roles on top of busy work and family schedules and begin to feel guilty and depressed as our stamina wanes.

Proximity to power has an unsurprising ability to mutate a politician’s spinal cord into bright yellow jelly.

Nature of caregiving

About 44 million Americans provide 37 billion hours of unpaid, "informal" care each year for adult family members and friends with chronic illnesses or conditions that prevent them from handling daily activities such as bathing, managing medications or preparing meals on their own.

Testimonials

I recently used the Companion service provided by North Region Homecare LLC and I have to say I was thoroughly impressed. The caregiver who accompanied me was kind, friendly, and professional, and made me feel comfortable right away. They provided exceptional support with daily tasks and offered great conversation to pass the time. Overall, I would highly recommend the Companion service to anyone in need of some extra assistance at home. It truly made a positive impact on my day-to-day life.

I am a regular client of North Region Homecare, and I must say, their services keep on improving. I usually book them for my father who requires help in his daily life, and as I cannot be around my father all the time due to my work, I can always rely on the experienced professional staff that North Region Homecare has. With their support, I can work effectively and efficiently, sometimes even for long hours without any major worry from my father.

As a person who does not like hiring people to take care of my grandmother, upon someone’s advice, I made a decision to try North Region Homecare’s services for once. I stayed with their staff at my house for the full day and kept a check on my grandmother. I knew my grandmother was much more relaxed and comfortable as she showed signs of relief due to the care provided by the staff. I now have opportunities to spend more time with my studies and work, meanwhile, my grandmother stays happy too. One of the best decisions I made.
