Here are the tools you’ll need to steer through one of life’s most challenging and rewarding experiences: caring for an aging parent.
In this revised edition based on journalist William Grote’s experience with his aging mother, you’ll find a step-by-step guide through the caregiving stages from the first discussions through needed action. Plus Grote’s narrative humor and easy-to-understand style lends simplicity to this serious and sometimes difficult subject.
Includes a toolbox of little-known tips to help you become your aging parent’s advocate:
- The 12 tell-tale signs that your parent needs your help.
- Proven clinical techniques for forgiving your parent so you can move forward.
- Common health problems in old age – which ones are serious and may be overlooked?
- Nine things you should always bring with your parent to a new doctor’s visit.
- Sure-fire methods to get other family members to commit their help.
- Often overlooked FREE community services.
- Legal necessities for even small estates (it’s easy).
- Two, low-cost alternatives to hiring a lawyer for a trust.
- Four often-overlooked alternative housing options.
- Three important ways you can ensure your parent’s safety in the hospital
- How to get your parent VIP attention from the hospital staff.
- The single most important thing to ask a nurse to check.
- Why you need to select a nursing home before your parent needs one.
- Tips on your own support with your parent’s dementia.
- Master conversation when dementia diminishes communication.
- Easily access affordable dementia care.
- Find a good hospice with 14 essential questions to ask.
- Open your heart for emotional closure.
- The 12 loose ends you must deal with after your parent dies.
- Six practical tips for planning a funeral or celebration of life service.
Learn from a journalist who dealt firsthand with the often-encountered problems. His “from the trenches” experience and research provide a candid resource of what works and what doesn’t when it comes to helping your aging parent. Facts, fill-in forms, checklists, and references simplify the process. His humorous real-life anecdotes lend levity and humility to this serious topic.
