Take them shopping  during senior hours

Many grocery chains, including Stop and Shop, Safeway, Whole Foods Market, and Target have designated specific shopping hours for senior citizens.

“We are setting aside this time to help these customers, who national health authorities have identified as among the most vulnerable to COVID-19, feel more comfortable shopping our stores and helping to ensure they are able to get the items they need in a less-crowded environment,” Whole Foods Market said in a statement.

If your loved one has an intense desire to get out of the house, consider taking them to shop for groceries during senior hours and waiting in the car for them while they gather the things that they need.
