Although mobility devices can transform an individuals life and give them back some sense of independence and control, they have the potential for injury. Often, the cause is not malfunction, but rather the fact that many individuals choose the wrong device for their needs or use them incorrectly.Consider the following before choosing a mobility device:FIRST, shop for the health care provider that is the right fit for the individuals needs.CANES AND WALKERSConsider the following in choosing the right canes and walkers:How is the individuals balance?Do they have the sensation and strength in their hands to hold the device?Make sure the device is the proper height.Perform routine maintenance checks. WHEELCHAIRSAn individual must be measured properly, and the chair and seating system must fit those measurements:Adjust the chair for the individual. Make sure the individual knows how to operate all functions on the chairReplace worn parts as necessary. STANDERSIt's important to measure the individuals size, functional abilities and the standers purpose. Once delivered, it must be properly adjusted. Do regular routine maintenance checks with parts replacement as needed.RE-EVALUATION, TRAINING, FITTING & REPAIR. It is common for facilities to hold mobility clinics where the individual is evaluated for a device and a prescription is generated. Delivery of the device, re-evaluation, fitting and training will occur.INSURANCEKnowledge of insurance plans and the individual's financial situation is also important. Many plans will cover only one device in a several-year period of time. Understanding of these issues can help in choosing a device that is able to grow and change as needs change.Finding that balance between devices can be very liberating and increase an individuals ability to participate in work, recreation, or other pursuits. Life changes, and so do all of us. It is important to schedule annual visits with a health care professional to evaluate current devices and the potential for new or changes in a mobility prescription.

Read MoreGrief is the normal and natural response to the loss of someone or something important to you. It is a natural part of life. Following a death or loss, you may feel empty and numb, as if you are in shock. You may notice physical changes as well. Feelings of deep sadness and sorrow are common in grief. Often, people find themselves engaging in behaviors that are different or unusual, or thinking in ways that are unfamiliar. Finding their beliefs challenged in grief, many people experience a kind of spiritual crisis following loss.TYPES OF GRIEF AND LOSSAnticipatory Mourning When a person or family is expecting death, it is normal to begin to anticipate how one will react and cope when that person eventually dies. Anticipatory mourning is a natural process that enables the family more time to slowly prepare for the reality of the loss. Sudden Loss Grief experienced after a sudden, unexpected death is different from anticipatory mourning. Sudden, unexpected loss may exceed the coping abilities of a person. Even though one may be able to acknowledge that loss has occurred, the full impact of loss may take much longer to fully comprehend than in the case of an expected loss.Complicated Grief There are times when grief does not progress as expected. Symptoms of depression and anxiety may be prevalent and prolonged. Thoughts, feelings, behaviors and reactions may seem to persist over long periods of time with little change or improvement.FINDING HELP FOR YOURSELF OR A LOVED ONEThere is help and support if you or a loved one is grieving a loss. Counseling and support services can be a guide through some of the challenges of grieving as a person adjusts to their loss. Grief support and counseling can be provided by professionals. Self-help groups are often available and are there for participants to support one another. For more information on grief and loss support, contact Pathways: Programs for Grief and Loss at (970) 663-3500.This article was submitted by Cynthia Hays, of Pathways Hospice. She can be reached at(970) 663-3500.
Read MoreRegular physical activity isn't just about staying fit; it's also about managing chronic illnesses and maintaining independence. We want to help seniors incorporate exercise into their daily routines for a healthier life. Remember to always check with your doctor before starting any new forms of exercise. The Benefits of Exercise for Chronic Illness ManagementExercise offers various benefits, especially for those living with chronic conditions. Regular physical activity can improve seniors' heart health, lowering blood pressure and improving circulation and reducing the risk of heart disease. Staying active can also increase mobility and flexibility, making daily activities easier and reducing the risk of injuries and falls.Regular exercise releases endorphins, which are natural mood lifters. This can help combat depression and anxiety, offering a sense of accomplishment and boosting overall well-being. Perhaps most importantly, engaging in physical activities can help seniors maintain their independence. The ability to perform daily tasks without assistance enhances their quality of life significantly.Tips for Incorporating Physical Activity into Daily RoutinesIncorporating exercise into a daily routine doesn't have to be hard. Start slow and build up gradually, beginning with light exercises and gradually increasing the intensity. This helps the body adjust and prevents burnout. Set small, achievable goals to stay motivated. Whether it's a short walk or a set of stretches, each step counts towards better health.Choose activities that are fun. Dancing, gardening, or playing with grandchildren can be excellent ways to stay active without it feeling like a chore. Consistency is key, so use reminders, calendars, or alarms to establish a routine and make exercise a regular part of the day.Selecting Appropriate Exercises Based on Individual Needs and AbilitiesChoosing the right exercises depends on individual needs and any existing health conditions. Here are some options to consider:Low-Impact Exercises for Joint Health: Walking, swimming, or cycling are gentle on the joints while still providing significant health benefits. These activities are perfect for those with arthritis or joint pain.Strength Training for Muscle Maintenance: Simple strength training exercises, such as lifting light weights or using resistance bands, can help preserve muscle mass and strength.Balance Exercises to Prevent Falls: Activities like standing on one foot or practicing Tai Chi improve stability and prevent falls, reducing the risk of injuries.Flexibility Exercises for Improved Range of Motion: Stretching exercises like yoga or simple daily stretches can enhance the range of motion, making everyday tasks easier.Need Caregiving Services for Seniors With Chronic Conditions?Exercise can help manage chronic conditions and improve the quality of life for seniors. It's never too late to start, but you should consult healthcare providers before beginning any new exercise regimen. At Senior Helpers Greeley, we are dedicated to helping seniors in Fort Collins, Loveland, Greeley, Wellington, and Longmont incorporate exercise into their chronic care plans. Contact us today for personalized support to ensure a healthier, more active lifestyle for your loved ones.
