Caregiver supplies for an overnight visitor with health issues

When we have a visitor with health issues who will be staying with us overnight, or who might be with us for a longer time, it is a good idea to have some special caregiver supplies in order to make our guest more comfortable. This is true as well for a visitor that might be healthy, but afflicted with some of the problems that accompany advanced age. With these supplies we can know our guest will be comfortable and they will know we have thought in advance about their potential need. Guests with health or age related problems may not think to ask us to have these items, but they will be well appreciated.

These simple things can help our guest feel much more comfortable and much more welcome. Many of these items are a great idea to have on hand for any guest that might visit us.

It is 7.5 inches at its tallest which gives a ‘just right’ amount of lift. It comes with a washable cover that is soft and comfortable.
