Meals and Nutrition Care
It is possible to alter the way appetites are maintained or how they fluctuate for a number of reasons. As we age, we lose appetite for a variety of reasons. In their later years, many aging men and women do not eat like they did when they were younger. As we age, a variety of factors can contribute to this, both physically and psychologically. All it takes is a few words of encouragement or a reminder to keep your family member on a healthy diet.
Loss of appetite is not the only concern, but what our loved ones are eating may not meet their nutritional needs. Our ability to help your loved one ease the strain and stress of meal planning may seem exhausting to your average adult, let alone an aging or disabled individual.
You and your family member will no longer have to worry about these worries with Hassicare. Meal plans and nutritional care and feeding assistance are among the options we provide.
Our Meals and Nutrition Care Services include:
Menu/Meal Planning Assistance
In order to maintain and boost the health of your loved one, we want to ensure that they receive everything they need. For many people who are aging or disabled, these tasks are physically and mentally exhausting. We will make the transition to creating healthy habits as easy as possible. We will assist you in planning out your family member’s favorite meals, while also advising you on which foods should be used more or less often. In addition, we offer assistance with grocery shopping, writing grocery lists, finding the best deals, and going through food that is already in the house.
Meal Preparation Assistance
Our caregivers at Hassicare work hard to ensure that your loved one obtains the appropriate amount of nutrients and calories to maintain a healthy lifestyle. As many older and disabled people find it difficult or impossible to cook for themselves, it is easy for them to fall behind on their nutritional goals. Meal preparation assistance includes preparing breakfast, lunch, and dinner, monitoring food intake, and monitoring fluid intake.
Feeding Assistance
Sometimes your loved one just needs a little extra motivation and encouragement to intake the right amount of food and fluid. Our caregivers are trained to be exceptionally good at making sure the feeding process is both enjoyable and beneficial to your family member.
HassiCare strives to provide the best non-medical home care services while maintaining a sense of independence for your loved one. Our help extends beyond the call of duty to ensure the safety and well-being of those we care about.For more information about how HassiCare can help your loved one, contact us today at 425-523-1005.
