Myth: “I don’t need home healthcare because my family is helping.”

Fact: Family support is invaluable, but home healthcare provides specialized skills and medical training that family members typically don’t have. Skilled clinicians can perform tasks like wound care, physical therapy, catheter care, medication management, and more—care that requires clinical expertise and ongoing monitoring. Home healthcare nurses also provide education and guidance to families, helping them understand conditions and feel confident in caring for their loved one.

Aging Well Tip: Create a Simple Daily Routine

Winter days can feel long, especially in February. Keeping a gentle daily routine can provide structure, improve mood, and support both mental and physical well-being. Even small habits such as regular mealtimes, short walks, or a favorite afternoon activity can make each day feel more balanced and purposeful.

Set a regular wake-up time. Keeping a consistent schedule helps your body stay on track.
Move a little each day. A short walk, stretching, or light chair exercises can boost energy.
Pick one daily “must-do.” Whether it’s a warm cup of tea, reading, or a phone call, a small ritual can bring comfort.
Keep meals consistent. Eating at regular times helps with digestion and energy levels.

Myth: Home healthcare is just for sick people.

Fact: Home healthcare isn’t only for people who are acutely ill or recently discharged from the hospital. It also supports people who need skilled, professional care to regain strength, improve mobility, or recover from surgery. Physical and occupational therapists can help patients rebuild their independence after events like a knee replacement or a stroke—teaching them how to safely move, dress, and care for themselves at home. Home healthcare teams also watch for changes in health that may not seem serious at first but can become bigger issues if left untreated.

Fact: Family caregivers play an incredibly important role, offering love, familiarity, and emotional support that no one else can replace. At the same time, caregiving can become physically and emotionally demanding, especially as needs grow over time. Managing personal responsibilities alongside caregiving often leads to exhaustion or burnout, even for the most dedicated family members.

Professional caregivers are trained to handle the day-to-day challenges of care with consistency, skill, and experience. Home care is not about replacing family involvement. It is about supporting it. By sharing responsibilities, families can focus on meaningful time together while knowing their loved one is receiving dependable, high-quality care.

Today we honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., whose message of love, dignity, and service continues to inspire us all.

On this day, we reflect on the importance of kindness, empathy, and standing together in service of others.
