Spring is for new beginnings, coming out of winter hibernation. Certified senior advisor Kelley Smith at CarePartners Senior Living joins Suzanne Newman to talk about how and when to intervene as an adult child or loved one of a senior who may need care.
This segment addresses what to do when our loved ones are adamantly resisting, but you know something has to change. You have to make sure that a decision’s been made – that they are no longer safe in their own home — you have to look at next steps, whether it’s home care, home health, rehabilitative care, or something else. Make sure they’ve been diagnosed by a doctor. And learn what the consequences are if you don’t do something.
