  1. Signs That Suggest Your Aged Grandparents Need Your Support Do you have aged grandparents in your home?   He or she might be absolutely   fit,   but   even   then   little   care   and   support   might   work miraculously in changing the quality of life of these loving family members of your home. But you might be inquisitive to know how you will understand if the elderly grandparents actually need old age support.   The professionals with Certificate III in Individual Support for elders recommend that you must watch out for some of these obvious signs. Struggle with simple activities Keep close watch on your daily activities of your grandparents. If you find that they are literally struggling every day in executing simple daily activities like finding their walking stick, dressing up properly or looking through their prescription for consuming daily medicines, treat it as an obvious indication.  Even though your grandparents might not tell you that they need help but these signs indicate that little support can enhance the quality of their life. Forgetfulness

  2. Some   reputed   professional   institutions   offering   Certificate   III   in individual  Support  Aged  Care  suggests  that  forgetfulness  is   often treated as a common problem of the elderly population. But what majority of us fail to understand is that forgetfulness can be an indication to a graver problem like Alzheimer’s and Dementia in old age. When elderly people get affected with these problems, they even forget their address and identity too. Such an aggravated situation makes them vulnerable. Hence, forgetfulness in your grandparents should never be ignored. Rather, help them out in such a situation by requesting them to make a list of things that have kept anywhere or activities they are supposed to do in notepad.  Keep the notepad under your   supervision   so   that   you   can   produce   them   whenever   your grandparents forget anything. This way they will instantly remember what they have forgotten. Problem in running errands Running errands in the form of visiting to the market to pick up grocery or visiting the bank might be among the regular activities of your

  3. grandparents. But you need to be watchful especially because old age isgrandparents. But you need to be watchful especially because old age is a concerning factor for them. Do not allow them to run those usual errands all alone without any companion to assist in the process as it might be risky. This is because they can fall down accidentally, fracture themselves or hurt themselves seriously.  They might not directly tell you that they need your assistance mainly because they do not want to give any sort of trouble to you. But you must accompany them once in a while in such errands. If you find that they feel comfortable with you as their support, then it is a sure shot indication that they need support in carrying out these activities.
