Our health and functional independence are measured in two categories.
The first:Activities of Daily Living (ADLs) which refers to those activities
associated with self care such as eating, dressing, grooming, toileting,
and transfers. And the second: Instrumental Activities of Daily Living
(IADLs) which refers to complex activities such as cooking, cleaning,
using the telephone, and managing finances.
Adults, aging or elderly, have a desire to remain functionally independent.
The major cause of loss of independence is diminished functional health.
The two major influences of self care and behavior for adults, aging or
elderly are: motivation and the quality of environmental stimulation.
Many adults, aging or elderly who experience gradual decline find that
instrumental activities of daily living (IADL) functions are likely to be lost
first.
Many elderly adults plateau at the level of IADL disability and this
suggests that help is needed such as social support, assist devices or
home modifications that could enable the adult, aging or elderly to
maintain a higher quality of life and remain in their home and community
for a longer time.
Home Companions Senior Care provides Home Care | SOLUTIONS
that appeal to continued enjoyment of life and abilities of adults, aging or
elderly, and support functional limitations to enhance quality of life. Our
care team simplifies tasks and provides assistance with daily living
activities to improve safety and promote successful aging.
