The Importance of Proper Personal Care in Aging

the-importance-of-proper-personal-care-in-agingNo matter what age, following a self-care routine should always be part of one’s daily activities. Doing so not only provides a sense of confidence in one’s self but also improves health and overall wellness.

So, why is personal care still important in aging? Adept Touch In-Home Care Services LLC would like to share some reasons why.

As experienced providers of in-home care in Los Angeles County and Orange County California, we understand that aging skin is quite sensitive. Pampering it can ultimately boost skin health.

With the help of a professional Personal Care Assistant/Caregiver, your older adult/elderly and/or seniors will be assisted in bathing, dressing, and more. Often, these are the steps most personal care attendants do to keep senior clients looking and feeling great:

  1. Giving showers or baths once a day to prevent the skin from drying. Dry skin is prone to breakage, tears, and even a delay in wound healing.
  2. Using a rich formula for moisturizer or lotion to lock in moisture from the bath or shower.
    If your senior loved one follows a skincare routine, Personal Care Assistant/Caregiver, can be taught these steps to maintain your senior’s youth and glow.
  3. Letting seniors wear good fitting clean clothes so they can move about their day in absolute comfort. Keeping them clean also prevents the risk of built-up gunk that may cause skin infections.

From dental hygiene to skin and hair care, self-care is still important for older adults and seniors to feel their best every day. And they can do these with relative ease with the help of our professional Home Care Aides or our Personal Care Assistant
