My loved one’s memory is still reliable and they can recall the names of those dear to them as well as their memories of them. They consistently remember to carry out daily tasks like taking their medications, making sure doors are locked, and turning off the stove.

My loved one can prepare meals independently and remembers to do so regularly. They can also handle grocery shopping without needing any assistance. Their pantry is well-stocked and they have a balanced diet.

My loved one regularly showers or bathes. They pay attention to their grooming habits and regularly wash their clothing. There has not been a noticeable decline in this ability within the last few years.

My loved one ensures that their home provides a safe and welcoming environment for both living in and socializing. Their home is clean and comfortable, with no household pests. It is heated and cooled when necessary. The house does not have dangerous amounts of clutter. There are no hazards such as exposed wires, slippery surfaces, etc. If there was an emergency, my loved one is capable of taking care of themselves.

My loved one leads an active lifestyle and engages in social interactions both in and out of their home. They socialize at the same level they did a few years ago.
