Prevent Malnutrition with Hourly Care Cooking Services
According to the Center for Disease Control, Elder Malnutrition is a serious problem facing 65% of our seniors. The situation flourishes in unlikely spaces such as hospital settings and assisted living facilities, where unpalatable meals aren’t consumed, and alternatives aren’t available. A-1 Home Care Agency’s skilled elder caregivers can provide thoughtful solutions. Our hourly caregivers can prepare delicious, healthy meals for your elderly loved one, and we take in a number of specifications. These include:
- Ethnic Cooking: If your elderly parent loves authentic Chinese cuisine or traditional American cuisine, A-1 Home Care Agency can arrange a Home
Helper to prepare nutritious meals. - Low Fat, Low Cholesterol Diet:
Seniors are usually great at cutting back on red meat but become protein deficient when they don’t consume healthy alternatives. Our Home Health Professionals or Caregivers cook with high quality proteins such as fish, chicken, beans, tofu, lentils and peas. - Low Sodium Diet:
A-1 Home Care Agency works to keep your favorite Senior excited about eating, by simmering with chicken broth instead of water, and infusing herbs, pepper and aromatics into food. - Chewing problems:
Sometimes, dental problems get in the way of consuming food. A-1 Home Care Agency can help with Care Givers who prepare delicious, soft diet recipes. We can prepare hearty soups, soft pasta dishes, polenta and more. - Nausea:
A common side effect to medications and illnesses, nausea doesn’t have to be the end of eating. Our Care Workers or Caregivers are knowledgeable in techniques to manage nausea. These include consuming food at room temperature, staying hydrated, eating small meals through the day, consuming fiber, and sniffing crushed mint.
