This is also a great motivator; they can see the distance they walked yesterday and today they may want to break that record. Most important this device is what the elderly need to keep track of their movements and steps. It will provide them with useful feedback about the actions they take each day.

Spring cleaning

Take time off your busy schedule and offer to help them do some spring cleaning. More than help dusting around the house but a serious in-door and out-door cleaning. Even though this is not a physical gift, your parents will appreciate this, especially if they live alone and cannot do most chores themselves. Clean the gutters, cut tree branches, and mow the lawn. Help them with their laundries, clean the floor, and prepare their favorite meal. This assistance is twofold, it will enable you to monitor their health condition yourself and see what kind of physical condition they are in at this time and how fast they are responding to their medication.
