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.
