Corona Del Mar is a beautiful city, neighboring Newport Beach and the San Joaquin Hills. Although, the city is known for its gorgeous beach scenery, sometimes the beach and plazas can be overcrowded or in the summertime, it is just too hot. And these conditions can, sometimes, become a life-threatening thing for some of our senior patients at A-1 Home Care agency due to recovery or side effects from medication(s).
That is where the indoor activities come in handy. One of the popular and to go-to task is watching television, whom most of our Corona Del Mar seniors find easygoing and relaxing, considering that they can stay in the comfort of their own home to do so. Here are some recommended TV shows to get started on (or finish) and binge-watch…so far (Newsday, 2017):
Our caregivers are here to monitor what should and should not watched, as requested by our seniors’ loved ones. We understand the importance of what might be too much or even too scary for our seniors to view. And with twenty-hour hour in-home care, our caretakers will be monitoring more than ever, in addition to their other daily tasks around the house.

Today in America, it is becoming more and more commonplace for adult children and family members to serve as primary caregiver to an ailing loved one. Compounded with balancing the obligations of running errands, staying on top of concerns with wellness and at the same time maintaining a household, the double workload can become overwhelming for some. What may prove even more stressful is grappling with the notion of hours of alone time your loved one may be looking at in the absence of yourself or other family members. Things like “fall-risk” come to mind or not being able to manage medications without supervision. This is where A-1 Home Care really shines-we deliver elder companion care, in home companion, live-in companion and other companionship services with a caring, compassionate touch to ensure the safety and well-being of your loved ones

Each and every senior companion professional is ethnically diverse, always affordable and dedicated to care and compassion. Our mission is to not only remove any uncertainty with leaving older loved ones alone, but to nurture and encourage the overall wellness of the patient. Social interaction can do so much for not only retaining but also regaining fuller cognitive function.

If you feel pain at the base of your skull or in the back of your neck, you may have occipital neuralgia, a condition characterized by inflamed or injured nerves running from the spinal cord through the scalp. Other symptoms may also include sensitivity to light, headaches, migraines, tender scalp, and pain during neck movement. Because it is often confused for other types of headaches, doctors cannot detect a cause for it. Up to this point, you may have had otherwise good health, but if these symptoms have been occurring lately, you may want to get a medical opinion before things get worse. This condition has also been associated with the following:
- Osteoporosis
- Head trauma
- Neck tumors
- Infection
- Diabetes
- Cervical disc disease
- Blood vessel inflammation
- Gout
Top-Notch In-Home Care for Migraines, Occipital Neuralgia and Other Symptoms
When your head is throbbing from electric shock-like pain for hours at a time, it is virtually impossible to do anything.

Our round-the-clock certified nurse aides will also help with chores such as cooking, cleaning, laundry and transportation anywhere in Corona del Mar. The most important priority for you is to relax and rest from doing anything that might trigger the pain.

Exercising is more than a lifestyle; it’s a mindset. Everyone knows that physical exercise is beneficial and necessary to stay healthy, but does that mean that everyone is doing it? Of course not. You either believe in it or you don’t. For the gym rats who have been exercising for most of their lives prior to dialysis, getting diagnosed with kidney disease is one of the most disheartening events in life, and there may not be too much support in the community where you live. In addition to symptoms like nausea, shortness of breath, and chronic fatigue, you might experience side effects like neuralgia from taking medication. A-1 Home Care in Corona del Mar provides full Kidney Care support 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Staying Motivated to Exercise with Companion Care
If exercising was not your part of your lifestyle prior to the diagnosis, it’s never too late to begin a routine or program. Bring a live-in caregiver with you to the doctor’s before you partake in vigorous activities. In addition to increased energy levels, you’ll also experience the following benefits of exercise:
- Decreased level of cholesterol and triglycerides
- Better weight management
- Improved muscle strength
- Better sleep
Doctors usually recommend that you exercise in 30-minute increments or less, depending on your strength and energy levels. If you start feeling chest pain, dizzy, or other symptoms that make it difficult to exercise, you should stop right away and not over-exert your body.
During the times when you feel too exhausted to do anything, you can rely on a helpful 24-hour caregiver to assist you with meal preparations, light housekeeping, errands and transportation anywhere in Corona del Mar and beyond. Round-the-clock caregivers are especially instrumental when you need help going to the doctor’s and it’s too unsafe for you to drive on your own.

If you have not taken any steps toward self-care, it’s time to start now. A-1 Home Care applauds you for your efforts in caring for your elderly loved one. As many families can attest, providing assistance with daily tasks such as meal preparation, overnight care, and toileting care can take a toll on your physical health, especially if your loved one’s condition is such that you have to stay awake all night to ensure your loved one’s safety. Over a period of time, when your body’s stress response system is stimulated day after day, night after night, you will experience some of these long-term effects:
All of the aforementioned diseases have been linked to high levels of interleukin 6 (IL-6), an immune system protein that’s activated in response to trauma, stress, cancer and infection. One study showed that family caregivers had a 63% higher death rate than their counterparts, and about 70% of the caregiver participants passed away before the study was over.

Arthritis is an inflammatory joint disease caused by an infection or injury, particularly in the joint areas where cartilage tissue is worn down to almost nothing. The breakdown of the tissue could be from normal wear and tear (aging) or it can be caused by an autoimmune attack, as in the case of rheumatoid arthritis. Doctors often prescribe pain medication to relieve arthritis symptoms such as joint swelling, stiffness, morning flares, and back pain. Arthritis is common in the hands, fingers, knees and elbows. What do you do, though, when pain medication no longer seems to work?
Some suggestions may go against logic. For example, why exercise if movement only aggravates the pain? However, here are some long-term solutions to consider:
- Avoid alcohol at all costs. Even if your elderly loved one thinks that his choice of drink will relieve the pain, alcohol actually triggers and exacerbates the problem.
- If you can, try to move your arms and legs. The more you move, the more you increase the flexibility of your joints, which reduces the pain.
- Other foods to avoid: fried/processed food, candy, soda, dairy products
- Use a heating pad, especially in the morning if that’s when your loved one’s symptoms are most severe
If you can’t be home to assist your elderly loved one who has arthritis, you can get 24 hour care from A-1 Home Care. Our live-in arthritis care services include meal preparation, light housekeeping, laundry, bathing, grooming, oral hygiene, personal care, transportation and more.

Understanding why your elderly loved one refuses to bathe when she has always been the clean freak may decrease your levels of frustration when you try to get your aging parents into the bath tub or shower. A common excuse that the elderly use is, “I’m not doing any yard work or errands that are getting my hands dirty. Therefore I don’t need a shower.” Maybe there’s an underlying fear of falling or slipping in the shower, or perhaps the act of bathing or showering is very exhausting for your spouse or parent. In this article, we at A-1 Home Care will list some of the reasons for seniors’ reluctance as well as solutions to those reasons.
Control
Consider recent events that have happened. Has your elderly loved one recently lost driving privileges due to poor vision or aging? Did his physician recommend that your father move in with you for senior safety and monitoring? Does his physical condition render him dependent on another human being for basic needs such as mobility? Your father’s resistance to bathing might be one area that he still has control over, and he is not ready to relinquish that yet. Knowing your elderly loved one’s personality well enough to motivate him to shower is tricky. Depending on your relationship history with your parents, it might not be so easy to “trick” your parents into bathing; sometimes a perfect stranger like a professional in-home care aide will be sufficient to coax your elderly loved ones.
Depression
If memory isn’t an issue for your elderly loved one, take a closer look at other possible reasons. Does your loved one seem sadder than usual lately? Has she lost interest in activities and hobbies she once enjoyed? It may be very possible that she has also lost interest in taking care of her personal hygiene as well, which is indicative of depression. Encourage her to see a doctor, or have a live-in caregiver accompany her if you are not able to go with her for a check-up.
Decreased Sense of Smell
Physical health conditions and medication’s side effects could hamper your loved one’s sense of smell. Your parents may not be aware that they smell a little, nor would they notice it on their spouse. All they probably need is a gentle reminder to take a shower.
Memory
Last but not least, memory loss is one of the most obvious reasons why a senior would not shower for days. The days and weeks blend together and the elderly lose track of time. If your parents are strong enough to take showers by themselves, remind them gently; otherwise, if they are physically frail and for some reason you cannot be there due to distance, your own physical condition or work schedule, you can count on a caregiver from A-1 Home Care to assist with bathing, grooming and dressing.
