Help With Making Change Easier For Caregivers and Aging Parents
In this episode of Eldercare Success, I dive into how to help your parents adjust to change(s) without it becoming a stubborn battle of wills. Most of us know that change is a constant, and quite often necessary part of living. Yet sometimes we forget this when change becomes dramatic, such as when we see our parents or loved ones become older, trailer, or even infirm. Sometimes their own fears, especially if unshared, lead to misunderstandings and relationship-breaking points among family members. While your overall goal is to ensure their safety and well-being, helping them adjust can sometimes be frustrating for you and them. So, what do you do when you meet pigheaded resistance to needed change? Tune in to this next episode. Hopefully, it will make their lives and yours a bit easier!
