With the holidays just behind us and cold winter weather settling in around the country many of us are finding ourselves with extra time while we stay inside where we can relax in our comfy heated surroundings. Many of us find that this is a perfect opportunity to curl up with a good book, a magazine or maybe even a blog. You might be asking yourself “What kind of place can I find all of this goodness?” Lucky for you SYNERGY HomeCare has a way that you can do all of the above!
It is our goal to start building Family Resources for people who are looking for answers to difficult questions they’re now facing concerning home care. These new resources include our quarterly magazine, two new guides, and some resources available here on our website and in social media.
SYNERGY HomeCare Magazine
You can now download our 2016 Winter issue of the SYNERGY HomeCare Magazine! Our quarterly publication is filled with useful tips and information for families, highlights on things related to SYNERGY HomeCare, and much more.
Our Winter edition includes helpful tips on avoiding the flu this season; learn about both nutritional ways to boost your immune system along with CDC recommendations for vaccines to discuss with your physician.

What We’re Reading
This monthly segment will focus on book we have found for those of you facing a particular new difficulty that SYNERGY HomeCare specializes in providing care for. As with most things in life, adjustment periods can be made easier by knowing what to expect and seeing what others have done confronted with similar situations. For January we’re focusing on Alzheimer’s & Dementia, we put together a reading list for different age groups to cope with the struggles of a spouse, friend, and even grandparents and their grandkids.
