Just under 50% of unpaid caregivers reported experiencing some level of physical stress while helping an older adult.
Many older adults admit that staying in their current home is ideal, and that’s your mom’s wish.
When you decide to help your parents during their older or senior years, it can come with a unique set of challenges.
Family caregivers often have a hard time balancing self-care, a parent’s care, and time with others in the family.
Is it difficult for you to know for sure if your senior needs assistance?
When the winter cold sets in seniors should avoid going outside as much as possible, but sometimes they may need to go out to shop, to go to the doctor, or to walk the dog if they have pets.
It’s difficult for you to grapple with the loss of a parent, but your senior parent must now face the prospect of aging alone which is scary and unfamiliar.
It’s easy to misunderstand what elder care is and how it can help.
24-hour home care can be a good option to help seniors who have medical issues that make them more vulnerable at night.
Do you understand the complexities of being a family caregiver to an aging parent or other loved one? Most people don’t.
