Welcome!In this episode of Real Conversations About Aging Parents, I delve into the 'where' aspect of caregiving, discussing the different living arrangements for aging loved ones. I cover considerations for aging in place, independent living, assisted living, long-term care, and memory care. I emphasize the importance of the physical and social environment, geographical proximity of caregivers, and the financial implications of each option. This episode is the third part of a series designed to help listeners structure their approach to caregiving, following previous discussions on 'who' and 'what' in caregiving scenarios.00:00 Introduction to Aging Parents Series00:35 Recap of Previous Episodes01:08 Where: The Importance of Location in Care01:49 Home Modifications for Aging in Place03:10 Community and Social Connections09:17 Proximity and Caregiving Dynamics16:29 Independent and Assisted Living Options21:36 Long-Term and Memory Care Considerations26:26 Conclusion and Next StepsCaveats:This is a judgement free zoneThere are no "shoulds" allowed, we live in curiosityTake what works well for you, leave the rest!This podcast is for informational purposes only; it is not intended as formal legal, financial or medical adviceIf you are finding value in this podcast, please share and leave a review so others can find it too!RebeccaDisclaimer: The information presented on this podcast is solely for information purposes.
