Caregiver Check-in: Is Thanksgiving a Sign It's Time for a Change?
The holidays are a time for warmth and connection, but for many families, they’re also the best chance to truly see how your aging parents are doing.
As you gather this Thanksgiving, look beyond the turkey and stuffing. Are you noticing things like:
• Their pantry is empty or full of spoiled food?
• They seem isolated or withdrawn from family conversations?
• Their medications are scattered and disorganized?
These can be subtle but important signs that professional support, like assisted living or adult day service, could enhance their safety and quality of life (and give you some peace of mind!).
