Many family caregivers make promises with the best intentions—pledging never to move a loved one into a care community or assuring them they can always move in.

But as caregiving expert Jennifer FitzPatrick shares in this episode of Caregiver Chats, those promises are often made without a full understanding of what advanced conditions like Alzheimer’s or mobility loss will truly require.

Jennifer encourages families to revisit those commitments with clarity and compassion. A more realistic and supportive promise might be:
“I will make sure you receive the best care possible.”

While moving in together can be the right choice for some, it is not universally the “most loving” option—and reframing the decision can help reduce guilt, improve family dynamics, and lead to better care outcomes.

Home Alone was filled with holiday magic, pranks, and a kid accidentally left to fend for himself. But underneath the laughs, the movie reminds us of something real.

That being alone at home can feel scary, even when it’s the place you love most.

At Home Instead, we believe in-home care should mean more independence and peace of mind. Our trusted Care Pros support families by helping older adults remain safe and connected at home.

Whether it’s help with meals and errands, specialized memory care, or around-the-clock support, our care adapts as your needs change.

The right care can lead to stronger connections, more confidence, and a life that feels truly your own. Learn more at homeinstead.com/home-
but-not-alone.

We plan for so many of life’s milestones—weddings, babies, school, and careers. But as aging advocate and podcast host Nicole Will points out, we rarely give the same thoughtful planning to aging, even though it’s the one thing every single one of us is doing every day.

In this fan-favorite episode of Caregiver Chats, Dr. Lakelyn and Nicole explore why planning ahead for aging and care needs is essential. From aging in place to assisted living and hospice, they walk through the full continuum of care and share how preparing early can reduce stress and help families avoid crisis-driven decisions.

Whether you’re noticing changes in an aging loved one or simply beginning to explore care options, this episode offers practical tools, compassionate guidance, and resources to help you feel more prepared for the road ahead.

Many families are surprised by how quickly old roles and patterns resurface when they begin living together again.

In this clip from Caregiver Chats, Jennifer FitzPatrick shares the lighthearted “48-hour rule” she and her sister follow — because after two days under the same roof, they slip right back into older-sister/younger-sister dynamics.

For caregivers, this isn’t unusual. After decades apart, moving back in with siblings or aging parents can stir up emotions, expectations, and long-standing family dynamics that are challenging to manage.

In this episode, Dr. Lakelyn and Jennifer explore why this happens and how families can navigate the psychological and emotional side of multigenerational living.

When a loved one moves into your home, it’s easy to assume everyone else in the family will step in to help. But as today’s guest Jennifer FitzPatrick reminds us, caregiving isn’t one-size-fits-all — and not every sibling or relative is prepared for hands-on support.

In this episode of Caregiver Chats, Dr. Lakelyn and Jennifer unpack the emotional, logistical, and relational realities of bringing an aging parent into your home.

Whether you’re exploring multigenerational living or supporting a loved one from afar, this conversation offers tools to plan with intention.
