NYC Seniors Stay Safe and Strong – Touching Hearts NYC Leads the Charge in Spring Falls Prevention

As the weather warms up and the flowers begin to bloom, spring can be an exciting time for seniors in NYC. However, with the change in season, also comes a heightened risk of falls and injuries. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, approximately one in four NY adults (25.3%) age 65 and older, report experiencing falls each year.

The risk of falls increases with age and can lead to serious injuries, such as fractures and head trauma. Seniors must take precautions to reduce their risk of falls, especially during the spring when outdoor activities increase. Seeking in-home care, when required, can significantly improve the safety and independence of seniors residing in Manhattan.

Touching Hearts NYC’s dedication to falls prevention through in-home care has garnered widespread attention, earning the organization a reputation as a leader in the in-home care industry. With their compassionate and award-winning innovative approach, Touching Hearts NYC is setting a new standard for the care of Manhattan seniors.

Through professionally trained in-home caregivers, NYC seniors can receive assistance with regular exercise routines, such as walking, stretching, and strength training. The award-winning caregivers are equipped with the expertise to improve seniors’ balance and coordination, ultimately reducing their risk of falls.

Touching Hearts NYC’s Care Managers are revolutionizing the way seniors live by suggesting simple modifications to make their homes safer. These changes are crucial for seniors who want to maintain their independence and reduce the risk of falls in their homes. With the help of Care Managers, seniors can receive personalized recommendations for home modifications, such as installing grab bars and removing tripping hazards. These minor adjustments can have a major impact on senior safety, allowing them to move around their homes with confidence and ease.

The suggestion of these home modifications by Care Managers is making waves in the senior in-home care industry, with experts recognizing the benefits of this approach to falls prevention. Seniors are now able to take control of their living environment and avoid falls, making their homes safer and more secure with the peace of mind that they are safe in their own homes.

Touching Hearts NYC’s in-home caregivers provide critical support for Manhattan seniors, assisting with daily tasks and navigating the rising costs of food and supplies. These highly trained professionals help seniors maintain their independence and quality of life by assisting with bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and transportation to doctor’s appointments. Going above and beyond, they shop for groceries, find deals on healthy ingredients, and stretch their budgets to ensure seniors have access to the nutritious food they need. Their compassionate care improves the lives of those they serve in profound ways.

“It’s true! One in four seniors experiences a fall each year. But don’t let that fear discourage you from getting out and enjoying the fresh air this spring season. Our in-home care might be the perfect solution for you. Our caregivers can help you navigate your home safely, assist with activities of daily living, and even help you manage your medications and monitor your health conditions. Plus, you’ll get to stay outdoors soak up some sunshine with the help of an in-home caregiver and enjoy the beautiful spring scenery while you’re at it! Not to mention, having someone to talk to and spend time with can also help prevent social isolation and loneliness, which can be just as harmful as physical injuries,” said Craig Sendach, owner of Touching Hearts at Home NYC

At the heart of Touching Hearts NYC’s in-home care is a commitment to compassion and respect for each individual. Caregivers are trained to provide personalized care that meets the unique needs and preferences of each NYC senior and to do so with kindness, empathy, and compassion.

In the face of inflationary pressures, the award-winning in-home care provider can provide the support and assistance needed to maintain NYC seniors’ health, independence, and dignity. If you or a loved one is struggling with mobility issues or daily tasks, consider reaching out to Touching Hearts NYC for compassionate in-home care support and assistance. With the right care, Manhattan seniors can maintain their health, well-being, and quality of life, even in the face of challenging circumstances.

“Touching Hearts at Home has been everything to us. Our mother, a 77-year-old retired teacher with advancing dementia, who lives alone and is physically fit, was in need of someone to help her with the activities of daily living. She would forget to eat or bathe, and the aide Christine was sent to help her. We could not have asked for a more caring and gentler person for mom. She was able to get this stubborn independent woman to allow her to help her. As the main caregiver for mom, this gave me a much-needed break from this daily ritual. Thanks to Christine and Carly (Supervisor) for all that you have done. It meant so much to us.” said Linwood Boyd, a client of Touching Hearts at Home NYC.

Prevention is always better than a cure, be sure to take care of yourself and you’ll be able to enjoy all that this spring season has to offer while still maintaining your independence and well-being.
