A Child’s Guide to Eldercare
It’s happened again. You’ve just received another frantic phone call from a concerned neighbor alerting you to the fact that she has just sent your Mom off to the hospital in an ambulance.
Later that evening when the dust settles, you contact your brother and sister. As you explain to them that this has become an ongoing situation and something must be done you begin to feel that niggling feeling of guilt in the pit of your stomach.
Since you are the only relative and specifically the only sibling who lives in the same town as your mother, the majority of the care has landed squarely on your shoulders.
It isn’t that the rest of the family doesn’t want to help but with the logistics and normal everyday hassles that come with raising children and making a living, most people are already stretched thin, financially as well as emotionally.
If you can relate then the time has come for you to seriously consider solutions that are in the best interest of your aging parent. This does not make you a bad person. Everyone ultimately has to face this situation. How you deal with it depends on how prepared you are.
When it comes to eldercare, it is critical that you are prepared before you are facing critical decisions. Educating yourself about the options available to your parent before the fact will allow you and your parent reach the plan of action for his or her situation.
Here is where “A Child’s Guide to Eldercare†comes in. This guide prepares you for answering many questions that you probably have never even thought about.
Here’s a list of just a few of the helpful things you find inside:
Ø When does eldercare begin? How to know when your parent(s) require help.
Ø Financial Issues - A discussion of financial and estate planning and making sure that information as well as a will is up to date.
Ø Who takes responsibility? How this should be determined BEFORE your parents require it.
Ø Who becomes the caregiver? Who will care for your elderly parents.
