Have you noticed your senior loved one struggling to maintain their physical appearance? Maybe daily activities like laundry, bathing, and grooming are becoming increasingly challenging, leaving your loved one frustrated at times.
Witnessing your aging loved one’s decline can be upsetting and can also affect their overall quality of life. You likely want to help but may not know what to do. This blog, curated by the Frontida Assisted Living team, offers a few solutions.
Solutions when your senior loved one is neglecting personal care

Some assisted living communities like Frontida Assisted Living have registered nurses on staff who can closely monitor your loved one’s health and wellness. When your needs increase, an interdisciplinary team will create a customized plan of care to address changing cognition or physical health.
Prioritizing social and physical needs is key to improving the overall well-being of older adults. With the right strategies and understanding, we can help them regain their independence and enjoy a fulfilling life.
