Vigil Care

Are your ageing parents or grandparents living on their own? Ageing in their own home is great for lots of reasons, and wearable technology can help keep older adults safe and independent for longer.

💡Fall detection capabilities can alert caregivers (you) or emergency services in case of an accident.

New Zealanders over 65yrs make up one of the fastest-growing groups in our population, which means more families will need to find ways to support and care for the aging adults in their lives.

Social care is a general term that refers to the extra support and professional help that seniors may need to complete daily tasks and live comfortably.

Social care comes in many different forms, from family members providing help around the house to professional carers visiting and helping aging adults dress, wash and look after their homes.

💡 What kinds of social care might the seniors in your life benefit from?

Supporting seniors to maintain a sense of independence helps them to feel confident in their abilities, it promotes mental wellbeing, and the feeling of contentedness living alone.

If someone you love is living alone, here's a few things you can do to support them:

👉Be patient, it’s okay if they're taking longer than usual to complete tasks

👉 Encourage seniors to do tasks around the home, make sure that the environment is set up for their success, and safety

👉 If you’re worried about their abilities, bring it up in conversation but let them tell you what they need help with, rather than the other way around

👉 Invest in tools that will help keep them safe. There are many products on the market assisting aging adults complete everyday tasks. From tools that help them reach items they can no longer bend or reach to get, to in-home technology to alert for safety or wellbeing issues.

Our thoughts are with all those in Auckland, Coromandel, BOP, Northland and other areas of New Zealand who have suffered through the recent extreme weather event.

Now's the time to check on vulnerable members of your community, and lend a hand if and where you can.

Take care out there everyone.

With a lack of retirement villages and beds, aging adults will need to take a proactive response to retiring.

We’re about smart wellbeing solutions that enable independent living, for longer.

According to ACC, approximately one-third of all people aged 65 years of age fall each year.

In-home technology like Memo Hub helps alert loved ones when falls occur.

Independence is critical for seniors to feel a sense of purpose and control over their lives.

Vigil Care’s advanced technology makes it easier for aging adults to get the care they need without infringing on their sense of freedom. 💛

💡 Did you know that smart technology is helping seniors live independently for longer?

In-home technology provides data and insights designed to provide proactive care in the comfort of their own home.

Accepting care can be frustrating for some seniors, but as a family member it can be hard to know if you’re encroaching too much on their independence.

Here’s how you can strike a healthy balance:

👉 Take a moment to observe what they need before providing help.
👉 Let your loved one complete parts of jobs to the best of their abilities and step in to provide needed assistance.
👉 Let seniors communicate their needs to you rather than tell them what they need.
👉 Invest in tools that will help keep them safe, like Vigil Care’s Memo Hub.
