Resurgence of COVID-19 Means Health Concerns for Valley Village Seniors

Written By: Tom Crowe

Just when we thought the COVID-19 pandemic was slowing, it is a renewed concern for those looking for quality elderly care. Valley Village, CA families need to face the reality of the Delta Variant this fall!

Those considering options for residential assisted living near Valley Village, CA need to keep in mind whether or not caregivers will keep their loved ones safe from all strains of COVID-19, the original strain, the new Delta Variant, or, really, any other strains that come this fall or winter.

Fortunately, here in southern California, winters do not usually mean spending a lot more time indoors like in most other parts of the country. Staying indoors more can encourage the spread of the virus, because the air remains more stagnant. But getting outside more can be good for everyone’s health because the virus doesn’t spread as readily in outdoor settings as in indoor settings. So this is a concern for those looking for quality and conscientious senior home care. Valley Village, CA families can rest assured that the CAREGivers of Home Instead take every precaution to make sure they are not a danger to the clients whom they visit.

The licensed, trained, and bonded CAREGivers of Home Instead observe all sensible measures to maintain their health and that of their clients: vaccination, testing, masking, hand washing, and maintaining a safe distance as much as possible while still delivering home care assistance for everyone, whether they just have simple needs, or if they have chronic health conditions.

And apart from the steps our CAREGivers take to make sure they will not pass along the virus, the senior care services in Valley Village, CA that they provide include things like running to the grocery store or other stores to pick up needed items — or medications. Also, the CAREGivers for seniors of Home Instead can give their clients a ride to doctors appointments, so rather than the elderly taking a risk with public transportation, or an app-based ride service like Uber, all of which can be less reliably clean and safe, seniors can rest assured that their ride with their CAREGiver will be safe and clean.

So those looking for “senior caregiver agency near me” can look no further. Contact Home Instead today to find out how our licensed, trained, bonded CAREGivers can take care of your loved ones. Call (818) 805-2208 today, or contact us online!
