Changing Relationships: You and Your Aging Parent/Relative

Learn how to communicate more calmly and productively with aging parents who can no longer live independently. Most adult children find it difficult to talk to parents about their decline in physical and mental abilities, outside care services they may need, and the possibility of new living arrangements. To make this process easier, the seminar will present you with techniques that overcome common communication barriers when elders are resistant, angry, or unwilling to listen. You will also explore helpful assumptions about aging and how to understand the loss of independence from the parent's perspective. The seminar will conclude with a summary of how to assess activities of daily living (ADLs), available care options, and a list of resources for aging adults.
