5 Things to Learn From Your Parents Before a Crisis Hits
Om denne podcast
Are you worried about your aging parents? Do you feel they will need either in-home care, driving assistance, or possibly move into assisted living or a memory care facility?
Join me as I discuss your concerns around caring for your senior parents with changes they may experience as they age, the different types of care for your parents, and how to avoid caregiver burnout.
It’s hard enough taking care of your family in today’s world. Then, when you add in nursing care, physical rehabilitation, and looking for a personal assistant or a new housing situation to better suit your parents’ needs as they age, you can find yourself frustrated, confused, and unsure of where to start when sorting through the myriad of options available to you and other Gen Xers who are on a journey to seek out long term care.
How can I find assisted living facilities near me? Does long-term care insurance cover assisted living facilities? Is memory care covered by long-term care insurance? How can I get a reverse mortgage on my home if I’m a senior or elderly individual who needs to move into an assisted living facility? What do I need to know when caring for a person with dementia? Is memory care tax deductible? What benefits are offered for aging Veterans? What do I need to know if one or both of my parents need Medicaid?
Make sure to follow Caring for Your Aging Parents on your favorite podcast player, along with our YouTube channel, to get the answers you need to your questions about caring for your geriatric parents, helping them to find memory care, or the best assisted living facility to meet their changing needs.
