Senior Spotlight: A Look Back at Helpful Holiday Tips

‘Tis the season to revisit these top reads! 

For decades the Bobbi Decker Real Estate Team has been dedicated to supporting seniors, and for almost 10 years we have been blogging about it too! As Thanksgiving week draws near, we pulled three ‘blast from the past’ blogs that offer relevant advice for today.


As we all know, the holidays are not an easy, joyous and fun-filled time for everyone. Challenges can be immense and multi-faceted, especially for those who have lost a loved one, may not live near family, may not be able to enjoy holiday foods for health reasons or who experience cognitive decline that is worsened by holiday chaos. We always encourage our readers to balance their love of comfort and traditions with their needs for their health and lifestyle today. And we think the blogs below can help! 


Helpful Holiday Hints To Protect & Support Our Seniors

This blog features the topics of isolation and connection, senior scam alerts and even a gift guide! The overarching theme of being gentle with each other is one we cannot emphasize enough.

Holiday Pet Safety

We know that some of the greatest companions for retirees have 4 legs and fur and we cannot forget them at the holidays! Our informative blog on safety for pets during the holidays touches on common holiday hazards and foods that may unknowingly endanger our pets. But with this read – now you know! 


We wish you all an amazing Thanksgiving next week; we hope you can feel only the deepest gratitude we have for all of you as our readers, friends and followers!

 

Cheers,


Bobbi
