Visiting family is a holiday tradition. It's nice to recharge and hang out with loved ones during some of the best times of the year. However, it's not always feasible.

Many seniors require caregivers as they grow older since their mobility is affected and they may not be able to perform all the chores they used to be able to do. They might need someone to help with cooking and cleaning. If they have memory-related issues, they might need someone who can remind them to take their medications or just someone who can help them to orient themselves in their homes. If their mobility issues are serious, they might need someone to help them to get out of bed, bathe, dress, etc.
While it may be inconvenient, seniors who are pre-diabetic or diabetic must be careful about the toasts and drinks they can have during celebrations. With proper planning and preparation, seniors can still stay healthy while enjoying holiday festivities.
