We can’t deny that most of us are busy with our day-to-day schedules and sometimes find it difficult to take time off to be with our aging parents or grandma and pa. Some employ the services of a caregiver to take care of their parents.

Elderly people are a significantly increased risk of developing severe forms of 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19). People who have severe illnesses may require hospitalization, ventilator, or intensive care.
