Senior Caregivers and the Big Question - When to Take Away the keys?

One of the most common misconceptions about aging concerns the correlation with age and the ability to drive. Oftentimes, people will falsely assume that old age in and of itself impairs one from driving safely. Although it certainly is common to see the elderly being driven by their guardians and caretakers, this does not mean that driving skills diminishes automatically with age. In fact, the truth is quite the opposite of what the general public would have you believe: 15-19 year old teenagers are more at risk to suffer from car accidents. The main reason as to why there is an issue with driving ability and old age is because old age tends to bring about cataracts in the eye, and changes in the brain that would affect the ability to drive. However, the taking away of driving privileges signifies the taking away of independence and freedom. For that reason, it is important to approach the topic carefully. When considering taking away the keys, try the following first:

1) Take a ride with them.
Check to see if your loved ones make responsible choices when driving or if they are making turns correctly and driving at an appropriate speed.

2) Accompany them to see a medical professional.
Have them check your loved one's vision and ask them to make their best judgments on abilities to drive. This way, if you experience some resistance to the idea of losing driving privileges, you can have some support from the doctor's advice.

3) Explain yourself and be there for them.
Although you are deciding a very crucial matter, you need to remind them that you are taking responsibility in their best interests. Offer to be their support and be there for them.

These are just some of the important issues that surround seniors and the elderly and which caregivers must familiarize themselves with, As a senior caregiver agency, A-1 Home Care understands how these matters can affect both elders and their families, and because of that we ensure that our live in and in home caregivers are also empathetic with these circumstances. Not only are our senior home health aides trained with 2 years of senior caregiver experience (including Companion Care and After Surgery Care), they are also compassionate and sensitive to the needs of the elderly and physically disabled. It because of our standard of caregivers that we have been serving families in Alta Dena since 1991

Things to ask your elder law attorney/ A-1 Home Care Altadena

Are you considering hiring an elder law attorney?

Families coping with both the emotional and legal complexities associated with long-term elder care face a unique, yet serious set of challenges. As a result, many individuals facing long-term care issues turn to professional service providers for advice.

Unfortunately, many so called Elder Law professionals simply do not have the experience or training necessary to provide comprehensive Elder Law planning. To ensure effective Elder Law planning and advice, individuals are well-served to seek out professionals who specifically focus their practice on Elder Law issues.

Here are a few questions to ask:

1. Are you a certified Elder Law Attorney?
2. What sort of cases have you dealt with?
3. Are you familiar with cases similar to mine?

Having fun at Two Palms Nursing Home in Pasadena

On Monday, a group of people from the A-1 Home Care/ A-1 Domestic Professional Services corporate family took a trip to Two Palms Nursing Center to have a day of activities and fun with the seniors for holiday crafts.



We made a lot of cool, new friends. Apparently, there was a lot of artistic talent in our midst, because we saw an amazing turnout, and lots of beautiful, glittery art pieces come from the minds of these elderly Michelangelos.

This is Verne, who was a talker. He told us stories about his exciting life as an airplane mechanic, and funny anecdotes about living on a farm with 10 brothers and sisters.
We were so happy to get the opportunity to interact and play with the people living at the center. After the hour was up, there were reluctant protests from seniors who wanted to continue decorating! We were super flattered, and had a hard time cleaning up to go.
