What Our Families and Seniors Are Saying
David is a 79 year old, diagnosed with dementia, specifically Alzheimers, in 2020. His professional life as a professor, public relations officer, and his life as a great reader, traveler and photographer are past. It is both unsafe and uninteresting for him to be alone for extended periods of time. I, as caregiver, have some commitments in the community and an interest in some activities without him. After some research, I found Seniors Helping Seniors, and specifically a wonderful companion in Nancy. David was sure he did not need anyone to be with him and was resistant to hiring a companion. He was anxious about her coming but her calm and friendly presence won him over. Following their time together, though he speaks little, he expresses how she’s ‘fun’, ‘really something’, and ‘special’. I am most grateful that I can leave with no fear, anxiety, or guilt about his care and that, in fact, his life is enhanced without my presence. Thank you for your supporting us in helping us to live our best lives in the midst of change and difficult times. ~ Dorette

"Seniors Helping Seniors (SHS) has been a wonderful help in my journey caring for my wife Sue. Kim and her team are kind, compassionate and helpful individuals who can came into our home and gave me a break from my 24/7 caretaking role. It is great to be able to get to the grocery store, visit with friends or go to a medical appointment for myself without having to worry about my loved one at home. I always knew Sue was well cared for in my absence and our SHS team member seemed to genuinely enjoy and look forward to her visits with Sue. Equally as important, Sue seemed to enjoy visiting and felt very comfortable around her which was a big relief to me.
Being a caretaker is purely an act of love and is very rewarding. However it can really take a toll on the caretaker. Having SHS allowed me a chance to recharge my batteries so I was better able to be there for Sue. We are extremely thankful to have SHS in our lives. Thank you! - Jerry"

SHS has been a lifesaver for me. With their help I’ve been able to keep my 96 year old mother in her home and out of assisted living. Although she can manage her basic care on her own she has memory problems and needs to have someone come in daily to see that she’s eating well (she has a prodigious sweet tooth and would live on cookies and Ensure) and is safe. She also enjoys and needs the stimulation of companionship. Until SHS came in I was the only one doing this for her. Now I’m able to take care of her other business, do her grocery shopping and have a couple free days without worrying about her. The women who are seeing her are so kind to her that I’m confident in having them come in. It’s important to my Mom to stay in her home. I’m not sure how she’d do if removed from her familiar environment. I’m very grateful to SHS for helping me achieve this for as long as possible. - Laura
