What should I pay attention to when taking care of the elderly over 80 years old?

For how to take care of the elderly, I think we should be more educated and guided by the young people in the ordinary life. Because many young people still lack some basic knowledge and spiritual care for the elderly. Because I also have an elderly person at home, who is now 84 years old, I would like to say my own thoughts on this situation.

Care for the 80-year-old should pay attention to the following aspects:

One of the usual physical care of the elderly should be well documented? Medical equipment should be sufficient

80-year-old man, if you can still walk on the ground, it is best to get down every day to walk around slowly, walking time can be a little on the line, do not have to be a long time. You can't sit or lie on the bed for a long time. If the activity is not convenient, it is also best to give the elderly regular massage or something, moving muscles and bones. Eat a light diet, easy to digest. Or according to their own conditions and then special adjustments, each eat the amount of food is not too full.

Home with the elderly should be equipped with more thermometers, blood pressure monitors, blood glucose meters and other medical equipment. Because the 80-year-old old man's body even if the hard body will have high blood pressure, high blood pressure, cerebral infarction, heart attack and other chronic diseases, if there is any unexpected situation, there are these instruments are not too passive as we are.

Two, diet to scientific planning? Targeted for a reasonable diet

Elderly people in ordinary life, because of age leads to stomach diseases in particular, slow digestion, there are a lot of food is not immediately absorbed. This time we need to be able to carefully observe, in the usual cooking to do some good absorption, soft food. For example, the batter, rice steamed as soft as possible. Vegetable style to be comprehensive, usually the protein, fat, carbohydrates and minerals should be comprehensive reasonable collocation.

And then, we in the planning of the elderly diet must be for the elderly to make a judgment on the disease, for example, an elderly person has diabetes, this time must be seriously in the diet to avoid some high sugar content of food. At the same time, we can also be based on the characteristics of the food to target the line of diet, for example, some vegetables can prevent hypertension, some food is good for the blood, some food can lower sugar, which need to be observed and memorized in our normal life.

These are really hard to do, but if you love the old man, love the parents, please allow yourself to accept this reality. Because, the health of the elderly is closely related to your care, it's hard, but also know that the happiness of the elderly is your real happiness.

Three, do the usual rehabilitation exercise? Develop a persistent mind

80-year-old people's bodies have not been able to live like our young people, they become sluggish in their movements, no power. Then, in ordinary life, the elderly need to go to do some gentle amplitude of small movement, so as not to let the organism in a very stagnant state. We can take the elderly for a walk more often, remembering that it must be slow and have a certain rhythm. Do not rush, let the elderly do their best, exercise 15-20 minutes a day can be, so that the whole body blood can be smooth circulation, for some chronic diseases are good.

In short, the care of 80-year-olds, we need to be more careful and considerate, we need to be more enough to pay more love to take care of them, because only in this way can we make the old people feel that although life has been close to the end, but our care will make them feel more happy.
