As they describe it:
– A guide to caring for your elderly loved one –
Caring for an aging parent, elderly spouse, domestic partner or close friend presents tough challenges – especially when a crisis hits and the responsibilities of elder care descend upon you suddenly. Perhaps your aging mother has fallen, is hospitalized with a broken hip and needs to go to a rehab facility.
Caregiving can also begin as a result of a series of unsettling mishaps and warning signs that indicate a need for long term care. Perhaps your elderly spouse has wandered off and gotten lost several times. Or a long-time friend has lost a lot of weight and rarely leaves home.
You may be the only person to step in and become the caregiver, or you may be the linchpin of a large network of family members and friends willing to help. Whatever the situation, you are not sure of the next step, or even the first step.
