🔥🔥 Extreme Heat Warning This Week! ☀️

Stay safe and beat the heat! Try to remain indoors as much as possible, drink plenty of water, and check in on older adults, neighbors, loved ones, and anyone who may not have reliable air conditioning.

💧 A quick check-in and a few simple precautions can make a big difference.

Stay cool. Stay hydrated. Stay safe! 🩵💛

💡 Caregiver Tip Tuesday!

Helping someone stand up from a chair? 🪑

Encourage them to scoot forward, place both feet firmly on the floor, and push up from the armrests—rather than pulling on you.

A safer technique helps protect both you and your loved one from injury. 🩵💛

Sometimes you're the one who notices first.

A parent who's withdrawn from things they used to love. A neighbor who worries more than they used to. Someone who's having a harder time managing day-to-day than they were six months ago.

Those changes can be a sign that some extra support would help. And you don't have to figure out the next step by yourself. Family members, physicians, and other health professionals can all make a referral to Senior Life Solutions at Ray County Hospital and Healthcare.

Our team supports adults typically 65 and older living with depression, anxiety, grief, and other emotional health concerns. We're here for them, and for the people who love them.

Call 816-470-7360 or visit rayhealthcare.org/services/senior-life-solutions to learn more.

Monday Madness 🐰🎩

“We’re all mad here!” 😂

Affinity Care supports caregivers caring for their loved ones 🩵💛

🛒 Shopping Doesn’t Look the Same for Everyone

For some, shopping is simple. For others, a little assistance can make all the difference.

Support has several options:

▪️Electric cart
▪️Caregiver help in the store
▪️Placing an online pickup order
▪️Having someone else shop

Affinity Care can provide assistance with shopping and errands, helping everyday tasks easier while supporting independence.

Sometimes a little help goes a long way. 🩵💛

🛴When Mobility Changes

As a senior’s mobility changes, everyday activities can become harder and more tiring. Walking, getting up from a chair, bathing, dressing, and getting around the home may require more time or assistance.

➡️ This can lead to less activity, increased fall risk, frustration, and loss of independence. With the right support, seniors can remain safer, more active, and comfortable in their own homes.

Affinity Care allows a trusted person to assist with everyday personal care and housekeeping needs paid through Missouri Medicaid.

☎️ Call us today to see if you or someone you know may qualify 816-929-HOME(4663)
