Answer:
1. Order their groceries online
Why are the elderly more vulnerable to COVID-19 than youngsters? Because their immune system is weaker. That is why your parents shouldn’t go out at all during the pandemic. If they go to grocery stores, they might be exposed to the virus.
But they need their food supplies. What should you do? Order online of course. Ask your parents to make a list of foods they need. Make sure they put in vegetables, fruits and dairy because these foods are necessary for strong immunity.
Now place the order on any online delivery platform and add the address of your parent’s home. This way your parents will be able to stock up fresh supplies as and when necessary.
2. You can order medicines online too
If your parents are on medication, they must not miss out on a single dose, especially if they have health conditions like hypertension, diabetes, kidney disorders and heart problems.
Procure a copy of your parent’s medical prescription and order the medicines online. Place a fresh order at least a few weeks before the current stock of medicines runs out. Please remember that like you, thousands are ordering online and there could be slight delays in deliveries during the lockdown.
Ensure that they have basic medicines with them for fever, headache, joint pain, acidity, constipation, antiseptic lotion, nutritional supplements and lots of band-aids.
3. Purchase other household essentials
It’s not just foods and medicines that your parents will need. They also require-
- Soaps
- Body wash
- Hand wash
- Shampoo
- Body oil & hair oil
- Moisturizer
- Aloe Vera gel
- Mosquito repellent
Purchase these items online in bulk so that they last longer.
4. Cooking gas and bills
You can also place an order for cooking gas cylinders for your parents online.
Many seniors pay bills (electricity, cable) offline. They also go out to get their phones recharged.
But fortunately, thanks to technological advances, all of these can be done remotely and online. So, go ahead and pay the monthly bills for them through mobile apps and recharge their phones online as well.
5. Get in touch with volunteer groups
Other than online shopping, is there anything else you can do?
In almost every city, NGOs and volunteer groups are willingly shopping necessities for seniors. If you know of such a group in your parents’ neighbourhood, contact them and give them the list of things your parents need.
3. Transfer money to your parents online for emergencies.
4. Ask your neighbour to visit your parents to check on them.
Your parents need your help now. It’s time to be responsible adults and do everything we can for our parents.
