The holiday season brings traditions, meals, and celebrations—but it can also be overwhelming for families and seniors living with memory loss. Jill Struff, case manager with Caring Friends In-Home Care, explains how caregivers step in to reduce stress, maintain routines, and help loved ones stay comfortable and engaged during the holidays.
Caregivers Help Families and Seniors with Dementia Enjoy the Holidays

- Safety at Home – They identify potential hazards, supervise daily activities, and ensure nutrition and overall well-being.
- Companionship & Social Interaction – Especially after periods of isolation, caregivers provide meaningful interaction to help seniors feel connected and engaged.
- Family Peace of Mind – By stepping in to help, caregivers support both the senior and their family, allowing loved ones to relax and enjoy the holidays.
