Start fall off right with help from some of the area’s best

Schools are officially back in session, colors are beginning to grace the trees, and Chattanoogans everywhere are dreaming of cooler temperatures to signal the beginning of fall. And as the season changes, new goals are being made and set to help get everyone off to a good start.

When it comes to caring for your aging loved ones, 5 Star Home Care offers services and care that fit every need, especially for those suffering with Alzheimer’s or dementia.

Kenny Higdon, owner of 5 Star Home Care, suggests art therapy as one method of engaging these loved ones and keeping their minds sharp. His company employs caregivers who help seniors and those living with a disability or recovering from an injury or illness to perform day-today activities.

“My heart goes out to anyone with Alzheimer’s and their family,” Higdon said. “We take care of the bathing, dressing, doing laundry, light housekeeping, meal preparation and transportation so they can concentrate their energy on reaching out and staying connected to their loved one.”

The business carefully connects caretakers with clients across Tennessee. For families who are concerned about the health and safety of a loved one, reach out to 5 Star Home Care at 423-893-8181.
