A Spring Cleaning List For Family Caregivers

It always feels like spring has taken its sweet time to finally get here. But sometimes, when it finally arrives, the season brings it with it many obligations and chores, especially when it comes to spring cleaning and outdoor maintenance.

When winter finally subsides and daylight sticks around a little longer in the evenings, you may start to notice that your senior loved one’s lawn looks shabby after months of living under the snow or that the leaves from last fall still need to be hauled to the curb. It is easy to feel overwhelmed by all of your chores, but if you plan ahead and make a to-do list, you will be enjoying the fruits of your labor in no time at all.

Prepping For Spring: Lawn Care and Outdoor Cleaning Tips

• The first thing you should consider when cleaning your loved one’s home is the safety of their outdoor space. Is it cluttered? Are there repairs that need immediate attention? Surveying the property and making notes will help you prioritize what work needs to be done. Freudenthal Home Health provides Home Maintenance services
• Second, keep in mind the chores in the yard that will require extra help, like cleaning out the gutters. This is a great time to take notice of the gutters, especially spring showers just around the corner. To prevent greater problems like leaks, it is important to prep the house for the weather that is on the horizon.
• Another thing to make note of are the sidewalks and walkways around the house. Make sure the areas that your loved one needs to walk are clear, uncluttered and safe. Check for uneven areas in the pavement, vines that may be overgrown and any other objects that would obstruct their path and cause them to fall or trip.
