Navigating the Next Steps In A Senior’s Life
When navigating the next steps in a senior’s life, patience and planning will help avoid much conflict.
If the time has come when assisted living is needed to keep them healthy and safe, talk to the senior to determine their wants and needs, then start exploring options and scheduling tours to find that next “best fit” for their care. Bring other family members into the discussion. Perspectives and opinions will likely be scattered, but by doing some homework in the beginning, you’ll be better prepared with facts and details.
Sometimes, the senior is the one that begins the conversation or process. This is a big sign they have a plan, and while family members can voice their opinions, the senior wants to feel heard and supported. The common goal is what is right for them.
When senior loved ones are involved, everyone wants to ensure they are happy, healthy and safe. It’s a multi-faceted and emotional process that we’ve helped many families navigate to a best-fit-solution.
At Serenity Gardens Seniors Assisted Living, our caregivers are dedicated to creating nurturing relationships with our residents and their families so we can better care for them and ensure their happiness and wellbeing. We invite you to contact us to discuss your loved ones needs and how we can help.
