The newly launched guide from The Village at Sugar Land is designed to provide comfort and practical insights to help loved ones who may not be able to visit their relatives in person.

The Village at Sugar Land and its team of healthcare professionals understand how lonely and isolated residents could potentially feel without communicating with their family members on a regular basis, particularly if they suffer from complex health needs.

Utilizing digital devices can help family members to remain remotely connected with relatives in care or assisted living facilities through phone calls, video calls, or other video applications. In addition, they could arrange online activities or games.

Staff members may be able to facilitate such digital meetings and assist residents who may not be familiar or comfortable with technology. This can empower residents and ensure they feel they can actively make choices in their life.

There may also be the possibility for relatives to join residents for online classes or events. Family members are encouraged to maintain a routine to help their relatives feel connected to them.

For instance, arranging a telephone call at the same time each day and maintaining a positive tone of voice could be the basis for a routine. Other options to raise the spirits of loved ones could involve sending care packages containing their favorite foods or treats.

While the staff have had to change the way they work on a daily basis to ensure residents are kept safe, their commitment to going above and beyond to ensure the wellbeing of both residents and staff has remained.

A company representative said: “COVID-19 has created a new awareness of how we need to work together to keep everyone safe. We’re using the latest technology to make this possible while finding new ways to keep family and friends connected.”
