The CaraVita Blog

CaraVita Home Care wants all seniors to be safe and informed. We take measures to educate and protect our clients. Medicare is one of the most significant topics families ask about. CaraVita Home Care wants to connect families to individuals who can help them navigate any area of senior living. Medicare consultant, Bonnie Dobbs, is an excellent resource that actively protects seniors in the Greater Atlanta area. The following is a CaraVita Guest Blog written by Bonnie Dobbs:

Two photographers in Russia (Illya Nodia and Irina Muravyova) were asked to take pictures of a senior care company's residents from around Moscow. They asked them to smile, and then took beautiful portraits. These are the results; good luck looking at these beaming seniors without smiling too. Some things, they are just contagious, timeless and universal. Joyful seniors are on that list of things.

Go Red!

Every year, we do our part at CaraVita to bring awareness to national Go Red day; the one day we put on pink boas, take silly pictures as a team, and (for-real-though) all band together wearing red to kick off Heart Health month. The goal? Raise awareness for the importance of heart health. This month, we hope you support the great initiatives of Go Red For Women, and raise awareness for a great cause.

Remember that image? That's what not preparing seniors for a storm looks like. Or, not preparing at all.

Check out this letter we received in celebration of our September caregiver of the month, Wanda Edge. Congrats Wanda!

You know, maybe the Golden Girls had it right all along; like pioneers for modern seniors and the sharing economy.

As students begin the annual back-to-school traditions of August, one group of students is perhaps underserved in the tradition: the student caregiver. It can be a challenge combining a busy school schedule with a caregiving job (whether that is for a family member or as a professional). Finding the time in such a whirlwind to complete homework, balance class and work schedules and fulfill the needs of your senior, but there are a few tips to help you stay on top.

When Rita Chukwu picks up a new client from CaraVita, we know they are in our best hands. Rita is a dilligent caregiver who is always present and always on time. So it's no wonder her clients send letters like the one we've shared below. Congratulations to Rita, CaraVita Home Care's Caregiver of the Month for July 2016.
