Dementia & Parents Health: Essential Conversations
Dementia and parents' health necessitate essential conversations. Discussing their care preferences, financial management,and desired living arrangements is crucial. Addressing potential cognitive impairment, healthcare needs, and financial decisions empowers both you and your parents. Openly exploring options like assisted living or in-home care ensures preparedness and peace of mind. These conversations, while challenging, foster a deeper understanding and strengthen your bond.
