The seasons are changing and the holidays are upon us. This article was written with that in mind. As much anticipation comes with holidays and seasonal changes some often face challenges that not everyone understands or anticipates and quite honestly don’t know where to turn.

Caring For A Loved One, Seasons & Holidays
By Kristin Stetler Donovan, Owner, Aging In Place Senior Care Services
It seems like a lifetime ago when I was trying to juggle three children, their school, sports activities and all the rest of the activities surrounding their lives while simultaneously caring for my two elderly parents. I focused on everyone else’s needs, and often I was the easiest person to neglect.
The reason I share this is because I know that we all struggle with life’s demands. With fall upon us, winter not far behind, and all the associated holidays that come with the seasons, things in life can get more hectic. The seasons changing has a significant impact on seniors that sometimes people don’t realize. The days get shorter, and the darkness sets in early. For many seniors with cognitive decline, this is confusing and creates sadness. Seniors tend to want to be in their home before dark, which leads to more time alone and potential isolation. The time change can also disrupt sleep patterns, exacerbate sundowning symptoms in those with dementia, and potentially increase the risk of falls and accidents.

💜 It’s the little moments that mean the most. 💜

Today, one of our amazing caregivers shared a tender moment with her client — a quiet, gentle act of care that brought the biggest smile.

As she painted her nails, her client looked down at her hands with pure joy… feeling beautiful, special, and so proud of her freshly painted nails.

These small acts of kindness create the biggest impact.

These are the moments that remind us why we do what we do. 💜

At Aging in Place Senior Care Services, we’re honored to be part of moments like this — moments filled with dignity, confidence, and heartfelt connection.

💅 Care is not just a service. It’s love in action. 💜
