Like respite services, home care services for families experiencing the ‘Sandwich Generation’ phenomenon (middle-aged adults caring for children and parents) can give family caregivers the extra hands needed to support multigenerational living. In this situation, Cheer Home Care staff primarily care for an older adult family member (individual or couples care) and are screened to have an appropriate skill set and personality fit to support the unique needs of intergenerational households.
Cheer Home Care can step in and provide caregivers who can engage with grandma while you take the kids to sports and assist grandpa with transfers while you attend a weekly dinner.
Benefits of sandwich generation service:
- Allows family members to be present and enjoy time together without multitasking caregiving roles.
- Improves the quality of life for older adults, who are able to participate in more family activities and events with the flexibility and support to meet their unique healthcare needs.
- Loved ones make sure to experience connections and special events.
