The Caring Generation® | Caregiver Expert Advice & Tips

How Younger Generations and Aging Parents Can Avoid One Elder Care Crisis After Another

Avoiding one elder care crisis after another is possible when younger generations initiate conversations with aging parents about family caregiving expectations and support. Younger generations can miss noticing the aging and health issues of grandparents or aging parents while focused on their own lives.

Yet a single elder care crisis—such as a fall resulting in a hip fracture, hospitalization, and a nursing home stay—can quickly overwhelm an adult child who is balancing caregiving responsibility with work and family.

This episode provides essential intergenerational caregiver advice and strategies. Younger generations will understand the complexities of caregiving, coordinating care, and accessing caregiver support resources and information by being proactive. Older adults will understand how changes in health or an unexpected event can impact their well-being and learn about the effect of managing care on their adult children.

Caregiving expert Pamela D. Wilson draws on her 25 years of experience to share an insightful elder care example, along with practical tips for family caregivers. She emphasizes that honest conversations about aging, health care, finances, and legal planning are critical so younger generations do not feel their lives will be derailed by caregiving responsibilities for aging parents.

Accordingly, aging parents who engage in information exchanges with their adult children about health care, legal issues, money, and care expectations can apply what they learn to improve health and well-being, thereby delaying an elder-care crisis.

Tune in to this valuable expert guidance on managing caregiving demands, fostering compassion in caregiving, and preparing for the challenges ahead on your caregiving journey.
