About this listen

  • This guide is intended for adult sons and daughters of their aging parent to help retain either staying in their home safely or identify what level of care is optimal in the community.
  • I review levels of care and precisely what a person's abilities look like at each level, which will help patients and families understand their options for meeting specific care needs. This often translates to the cost you may pay, for example, at your chosen assisted living facility.
  • This book is a must-have for the friends and family members who are assisting their elderly loved one in seeking help or a different setting or is concerned about how to help them stay in their own home as long as possible.

I provide concise and clear descriptions of all levels of care in the community from being at home to independent and assisted living to the highest level of care with 24-hour care in skilled nursing. This will be helpful if you want to learn about levels of care and how they translate to your loved one's abilities such as managing their medications independently or not, needing assistance with ADLs or activities of daily living, and what sort of setting can accommodate such needs.

Retaining placement in the community is discussed, as well as that wellness begins at home with solid support, no matter where you are in life.
