How To Help Aging Parents Stay At Home
When given the choice, most seniors choose to age at home for as long as possible. This process allows them to live in their own familiar home environment, enjoying privacy and independence. If your parents wish to remain at home, it's important to plan for this process. Will they need in home care services? Do they have a dynamic network of friends and family in Topeka?
Let's review a few ways you can help to plan this process.
3 Tips For Helping Seniors Remain at Home
It's easy to get lost in the weeds when planning for a loved one's future. But it's important to make sure your family member is safe, comfortable, and thriving. With that in mind, here are a few tips to start:
- Make sure the home is safe to navigate. Go through the home with your loved one and make sure they can navigate it easily and comfortably. It may be helpful to add grab rails in the bathroom and bedroom, to clear away clutter, and to install strong, high-key lighting in each area of the house.
- Identify specific ways that family can help. Check in with other family to see if they can help your loved one age in place comfortably. Anything helps—whether it's a weekly video chat or dropping off prepared meals once a month. Input these items into everyone's calendar, so everyone has the same expectations.
- Set up in home care services. It's always a good idea to set up professional home care early on. That way, if your family member's needs change over time, care can be easily increased. For families in Topeka, our team can guide you through this process, making sure your loved one has the support they need.
