FREE HELP FOR SENIORS AND THEIR FAMILY CAREGIVERS

FREE HELP FOR SENIORS AND THEIR FAMILY CAREGIVERS

There’s nothing better than FREE help for seniors! Except for free services for seniors AND their family caregivers! Getting help for the elderly living at home can get expensive and families often don’t know who to call for the little things.

In addition, family caregiving is demanding and can be stressful, so any FREE technology for family caregivers to free up some time and make things less stressful should be a welcome resource for you. Well, this video has both: Tips for helping elderly parents get much needed FREE services, and also how to make caring for elderly parents easier by using technology.

When your elderly parent needs help with things like cleaning, driving, moving, getting food or needs support when in the hospital or is ill at home, there are FREE solutions to help out. FREE services for senior citizens and the elderly are hard to find, but this video will cover four amazing FREE resources to make things a bit easier on you. I’m sure that at least one of these will be a benefit for you and your aging parent at home, and maybe you’ll find all four useful!

The next time you say things like “I’m so stressed, my elderly parent needs help at home and I don’t know who to turn to”, turn to these resources for assistance.

    Your videos have been amazing! My dad had a stroke a month ago and I flew out to help him, while keeping my full time job working remotely. Wow! I didn’t realize what I was in for and how completely unprepared and inadequate I was. Anyway, learning a lot from you!

    That’s DANGEROUS to have all of ANYBODY’S medical information on an App!
    BAAAADDD ADVICE!!

    Aren’t you aware of all the Identity Theft and cyber security HACKING that’s occurring right now??

    You are just asking for trouble!!

    SOON, you’ll be REQUIRED to insert the "M@rk 0f th3 B3@st" RF1D M1CR0CH1P in your hand for "Convenience and Security".

    "Convenience" isn’t worth that kind of trouble!
    Or G0D’S WR@TH!!

    Sorry #4 is not free. They won’t even let you talk to anyone in your area without a $49.99 MONTHLY "DONATION"! I don’t know about you but my dad is on ssi and cannot afford food. Without meals on wheels he would be starving. So for you to say this is free is a freaking SCAM! You should check your info better. REALLY!



  12. F451Productions on March 15, 2022 at 7:43 pm

    Great info, thanks



  13. Kiana Y on March 15, 2022 at 7:44 pm

    NO REALLY YOU GOT MY HOPES UP THAT MAYBE MY 24/7 JOB TAKING CARE OF MY DAD, WOULD GIVE ME A BREAK. AND I CAN’T EVEN GET ANOTHER JOB BECAUSE HIS CARE IS SO DEMANDING AND TO OFFER THIS SERVICE AS FREE IS REALLY WRONG. I LOOKED THROUGH THE COMMENTS AND YOU’VE BEEN INFORMED THAT THIS SERVICE IS NOT FREE… SO STOP.



  14. Marc Mork on March 15, 2022 at 7:44 pm

    THANK YOU SOFIA, YOU’RE AN ANGEL



  15. Alex Frizzelle III on March 15, 2022 at 7:46 pm

    Sofia-I was so excited when I watched your video and you spoke about Elder Helpers. This service is NOT FREE. There is a yearly cost of $319 and that was back in 2013. Have you read the reviews about this agency? They are very bad.

    Thanks!



  20. New Adventure on March 15, 2022 at 7:59 pm

    What is the definition of a senior? I am sixty years old. Does that qualify me as a senior?



  21. Kayoko Lindenberger on March 15, 2022 at 8:01 pm

    I (and my parents) are very lucky that they have retiree medical insurance through Kaiser Permanente so I don’t need a binder. 🙂 Neither of my parents are good at understanding and repeating the care instructions, but at least they’ve completed their Advanced Medical Directive and authorized me to access their health records online.
    The Elder Helpers link. OMG. This is so useful. I can’t wait to let my parents know about this!



  22. Karen Shelton on March 15, 2022 at 8:07 pm

    Who is eating the mike?



  23. Dove leboeuf on March 15, 2022 at 8:11 pm

    I’m glad you have alot of family and friends, cause I don’t!!! My mom is mean and won’t let anyone come to her house if they are not one of us 3 kids. My sister can’t because her health is worse than mom’s and my brother just had a stroke a couple months back and is still recovering!!!



  24. Valire Davis on March 15, 2022 at 8:12 pm

    😊 .. Do you have any info for younger seniors who have no elderly parents?

    Thank you.



  25. Marcus Downing on March 15, 2022 at 8:13 pm

  26. Diane Boynton on March 15, 2022 at 8:14 pm
