Holidays or family parties are a perfect time to discuss with the family what’s best for Mom and Dad since everyone is together. It’s ideal to get siblings and immediate family members involved, as taking care of the elderly loved one is a family decision and responsibility.
CONCLUSION
Remember, just like raising children, there is no “perfect way” or one-way approach for your aging parents. However, if you prepare for it and give yourself enough time, you can make finding the right assisted living a lot easier for everyone involved, including getting the best care options for your aging parent needing care.
The most important reminder is to let your parents know your desire for them to be independent, but their safety always comes first.
