Many families travel to Orlando during the holidays, which means full houses, busy kitchens, and lots of excitement. For seniors, the extra activity can be both wonderful and overwhelming.
Set Up a Calm Space
Prepare a quiet room where your senior loved one can rest if noise or activity becomes too much.
Make the Home Guest-Ready, Not Hazard-Ready
When moving furniture for guests or setting up decorations, keep pathways wide and remove clutter. Avoid loose cords or unstable décor.
Plan Inclusive Activities
Choose holiday activities everyone can enjoy—slow neighborhood walks, simple crafts, or card games that bring generations together.
Keep Hydration and Nutrition on Track
With Florida’s warm afternoons, hydration is key. Offer water regularly and keep familiar, easy-to-eat foods available during busy days.
Check In Often
Even with a house full of people, seniors can feel overlooked. A simple “How are you feeling?” goes a long way.
Support for Visiting Families
Whether you’re hosting or visiting loved ones in Orlando, CareBuilders at Home can help create smooth, stress-free holiday experiences for seniors and caregivers alike.
