It is that time of year, where families are stymied as to what to buy their elderly loved ones. There are a number of gift ideas, many of which are for their comfort in mind, not necessarily the latest in gadgets. Home adaptation equipment, such as handheld shower devices, large button telephones and safety objects. Consider entertainment items, such as their favorite music from the past, photograph albums filled with family pictures, videos, large print books or large piece puzzles. Clothing items are appreciated, with easy on/off elastic or Velcro closures. Warm and comfy items are favorites. Gift certificates for grooming, massages, manicures and haircuts are always a hit. Memory aids are useful, such as calendars, message boards or handheld tape recorders. And the best gift of all is companionship …. spending time with your elderly loved ones. Here is an article I wrote that can provide you with more suggestions on how to give gifts that will make this year’s holiday one to remember.
