Caring for Families We may see our parents getting a little forgetful, or having a difficult time keeping up with household chores. Sometimes the hospitalization or death of a parent convinces us that mom or dad should no longer live alone. Assistance from a caregiver with chores such as grocery shopping or laundry, going to doctor appointments, or reminders about medication may be all that is needed to make the difference between staying at home, or leaving home – and at less cost than assisted living or nursing homes. Caring for Loved Ones Long DistanceMany retirees come to Arizona to enjoy the warm sunshine and active lifestyle. Because of aging, their needs and situations change over time. Everyone wants to remain as independent as possible. No one wants to admit that impaired vision or hearing may make it harder to drive, or that they’re having a hard time remembering to take their medication. Illness may make personal care, such as bathing and grooming, more difficult. These types of changes are difficult to detect long-distance. Adult children worry about their aging parents thousands of miles away. Care Corner can be your eyes and ears.
