Dr. Donald P. Copley reflects on his experience as a cardiologist to conclude that in-home health care may be the best option for many elderly people with chronic diseases, especially heart disease. As an M.D. practicing in Kenmore, many of his patients sought in-home care from Hospice Buffalo, an in-home care company in the Buffalo, New York area. All of his patients reported a great experience with in-home care, and many even regained strength and were able to continue on with their lives as normal. MORE
Is Attitude Everything?
Successful aging in Ohio is an absence of (or minimum of) disease and disability. A new study of more than 500 persons from age 60 to 98 shows that people who think they are “aging successfully” aren’t necessarily the healthiest individuals. Optimism and effective coping tools, or attitude, were found be essential to successful aging more than traditional measures of health and wellness, according to a study funded by the Sam and Rose Stein Institute for Research on Aging at the University of California-San Diego.
The study showed that persons who regularly read, write and socialize gave themselves higher scores than those who did not. Surprisingly, volunteer activities, which have long been thought to help persons age successfully, were not found to have the same positive influence. The bottom line is that those things leading to successful aging are well within an individual’s control. The key is adopting personal coping mechanisms and remaining as physically, socially and mentally active as possible.

Imagine being able to stay in your own home and receive the round-the-clock care you need. Tender Hearts is proud to offer a live-in care plus program for seniors who require caregiver assistance day and night.
Tender Hearts’ Live-in Care Plus program provides a team of two to three caregivers who live with the client for alternating extended shifts. Our professional caregivers live, eat, sleep, and care in the client’s home for several days and nights at a time while on shift. They are able to provide non-medical assistance seamlessly and unobtrusively.
The ideal candidate for this program is a senior with mild cognitive impairment who is able to do a lot for herself, sleeps through the night, and owns her own home – but who needs or desires 24/7 supervision.
Live-in Care Plus includes:
Tender Hearts caregivers understand that they are invited guests in the client’s home. They are committed to being patient, helpful, considerate, and attentive. All caregivers are trained, insured, and bonded.
Our competitive rates for Live-in Care Plus are $265/day per single client and $330/day per couple. For more information, call us at (513) 234-0805
