| As family caregivers, our concerns are amplified when the power goes out. Time is not our friend during a power outage. In addition to the refrigerator, heating and cooling systems, entertainment and communication devices, we need battery power for nebulizers, oxygen delivery and other concerns. When an ice storm hits, staying in our home may be the safest choice, if we have back-up power. Portable power packs need to be charged. Smaller, portable solar chargers, as well as Wind generators are available. Remember... "land" phone lines usually continue to work when electricity fails. Be sure to have a phone that does not require electricity. Relying on cordless phones alone will leave you speechless. Have at least one "traditional" touch tone phone with a phone cord plugged in to a phone jack for such an emergency. Remember, a laptop can use a phone cord for dial up internet service, if you have the number already stored in your memory, and enough battery power to compute. |
health conditions
alter our internal body thermostat, and we are no longer able to
perceive the ambient temperature.
As a result, we may keep the house too hot or too cold.
This is dangerous in extreme heat of summer.
Dehydration, heat exhaustion and heat stroke threaten the
unobserved.
A couple shared with us that their elderly mother,
who lives alone responded well to having a large print thermometer
as a steady reference of the REAL TEMPERATURE helped
minimize thermostat fidgeting.
Determining best time for outdoor activities are enhanced by having
the outdoor sensor.
Lack of structure confuses the best of us.
This "clock" is a self-setting reminder that
helps remind a person of the time, the day of the week,the
tempature and weather condition.
| Using a timer to help you keep on task, keep on a medication schedule, feeding schedule, (don't let that blood sugar plummet!) limit time spent on the phone, at the computer, time spent in front of the television, out in the garden, out on errands... Cell phones offer timer features. We found this variety of timers which can help a person living independently. Also helps the caregiver, by keeping everyone "on the same page." |
| Invest in a page-a-day calendar. These are available for current year 2011. Some offer a free page-a-day on-line calendar with the purchase of a box calendar. I print one out and place it on the table to help Mom keep track of current date. |
| Mowing your lawn is becoming increasingly difficult, now with added demands on your time. Finding someone to help maintain the grass is costly and requires patience for someone else's schedule and tolerance for the manner in which the task is completed. Like you don't have enough annoyances!?! Sit down and figure out annual cost for grass mowing and compare to this quiet, gas-free, hassle-free alternative. No oil changes or lugging a gassy mower to the repair shop. Keep cool on blistering days. Stop the nagging. Keep "caught up" with the help of automation. Let criticism for THIS investment be colored by the one who consistantly pushes the mower! Reserve more time for trimming and beautification. Robomower RL 1000 Automatic STC 81000 $2,499.99 Regular Price: $3,249.98 You Save $749.99 (23%) for lawns up to17,500 square feet |
| The Future is NOW. Lawn "mows itself!" |
| Every Home Needs Check Once! By reminding you of what to do around your home, this check list: Simplifies and organizes the process of leaving your home. Gives you peace of mind that your home is safe and sound. |
| Keep copy of medications, schedule, insurance cards, identification with birthdate, Doctor's name and phone number, emergency contact phone numbers, extra set of house and car keys. Put it one in THE GRABBAG. Put one in the "vial of Life "baggie and place in your refrigerator door. Put one in your "Doorganizer" Hang on your bedroom or front door. Everything will be together. You will save precious minutes. Especially if emergency personel , a neighbor, friend or family member is assisting you on your journey. |
