Take Care of Yourself

Providing long-term care for a loved one can be very taxing and time-consuming. With spring around the corner, we are all itching to leave our cozy winter hearths and get back to being active. By bringing in in-home elder care, you can take time to care for your health. Care for your loved ones frees up time for tackling your next challenge and helps ensure that you can enjoy the good things in life, going forward. If you or someone you know would benefit from in-home care, reach out to explore the options available.

Another Reason to Smile:

The Norwex® Adult Silver Care Toothbrush inhibits bacterial growth and buildup and self-sanitizes within hours of use! On contact with water, the silver on the unique bristle base releases active ions that eliminate up to 99.9% of the bacteria that cause plaque, cavities, and gingivitis. Includes a toothbrush and refill. Comparative tests between Silver Care and traditional toothbrushes show reduction level of Streptococcus mutant (the principal cavity-forming bacteria) on the brush! As a bonus add in our new Lysere™ Toothpaste with probiotics and/or Mouthwash with antioxidants to help nourish and balance the good bacteria and keep the bad bacteria at bay!

Volunteers Needed!

Here at Saskatoon Services for Seniors we strive to make a difference every day. We do this though helping Seniors remain safely in their own homes by helping provide services that they need. One of these key services especially in winter is our Grocery Delivery and snow shoveling programs, we are currently looking for one or two volunteers to help with these programs. If you are interested in helping seniors in our community please contact our office today. Our grocery shoppers/delivery volunteers are needed for one to two days per week.

Naturopathic Approach to Irritable Bowel Syndrome

Did you know that April is IBS Awareness Month? IBS is one of the most common digestive disorders and can sometimes be one of the most confusing. Common triggers for IBS symptoms include stress, reduced gut biome diversity, food sensitivities/intolerances, and hormones. The condition is often diagnosed by ruling out other conditions and is frequently treated with pharmaceutical medications. Another option is to use naturopathic medicine to take a whole-system approach to managing the condition. This can involve individually tailored plans featuring botanicals, supplements, and enzymes, diet changes, and stress management techniques to address underlying health factors.

We’re Hiring!

We have several positions available in our organization from housekeeping and snow shoveling. If you enjoy working with Seniors and making a difference in their lives please contact us today.

Home Care Supports

Just Like Family Home Care offers practical assistance with daily living activities, such as bathing and dressing, meal planning and preparation, companionship, and emotional support. With the right care and attention, seniors can live longer, healthier, and more fulfilling lives in the comfort of their own homes. Our professional caregivers can be there for you, when you need a little extra hand around the house or someone to accompany you on your outings. Caregivers can help with the day-to-day tasks, so you have time to enjoy the little things in life, while remaining safe and independent in your own home.

Move Better, Live Better!

Aging is inevitable, but loss of function doesn’t have to be. A strong foundation in movement mechanics allows you to be strong and safe in as many situations as possible. Work to build your fitness foundation from the ground up. Remember, it’s important to establish spine stabilization prior to core strengthening. If you’re an older adult, choose low impact exercise programs that can help with mobility, balance, coordination, flexibility, and strength. A good program will teach you how to move well and give you the ability to do everyday activities with ease and pain free.

Health Boosts for Spring

With April and its warm weather upon us, it’s a great time to start thinking more about your health! The spring season invites us to get outside for a walk and enjoy the sunshine, whether it’s for overall health or weight loss. To boost your energy levels and potentially help with weight loss, consider taking high-quality vitamin B12, iron, and magnesium supplements. These can be a great addition to a healthy, well-rounded diet to ensure you’re getting enough of these nutrients to keep up with your daily activities. Committing to healthy lifestyle changes can help you look and feel better!
