As our loved ones age, it can be difficult to find the balance between honoring their wants and wishes and ensuring that they are safe and healthy. Older adults don’t want to feel like they are losing their independence and can be hesitant to receive any sort of help. In this episode, social workers from Holland Home and Atrio Home Care discuss how to recognize when your loved one might be ready for home care or a senior living community and how to have that conversation in a productive and respectful way.
