Season’s Greetings! 

 

We're available to help you  

We want to let all our clients and readers know that DR Care Solutions will be available at all times during the Christmas, festive, Chanukah and family holiday period  to receive your call or email enquiry. 

 

Christmas and January is one of our busiest periods, particularly in the current environment where many adult children, based overseas, may still not be able to make it home. I know that some have decided to delay plans to avoid the hassle of pre-flight testing[1] and quarantine requirements[2] at a peak travelling time of the year. 

Clearly if you have family in Western Australia, you will not be getting together until well into the new year.  

 

The gift of company

If you do have a family member who, due to age or a disability, will not be venturing out on Christmas day and will be spending the day alone, consider having an in-home carer bring some cheer and a hearty lunch or dinner to enjoy in the comfort of your loved one’s home. 

While they may reassure us that they will be fine spending the day alone, when the day arrives it can be lonely and miserable. A visit from one of our compassionate and professional carers from care providers vetted by us, is a heart-warming gift to those feeling isolated.   

If your loved one needs extra assistance or if you wish to make sure someone visits and delivers a meal to your loved one on Christmas day, please get in early by calling or emailing me, Danielle Robertson, to discuss what care and support arrangements can be put in place. 

 

My best wishes for the season to all.
