Senior Living Moments

Unless you're a professional in senior care, you're likely not equipped to handle behavioral expressions that you've never seen in an aging parent, spouse, or friend. In this episode, Nancy Nelson provides seasoned advice as a subject matter expert to help you know what to expect and how to respond to unexpected behaviors among aging loved ones struggling with aging issues.

Sometimes, people who care for aging adults feel like they are on an emotional rollercoaster; up and down and around. It's enough to make you want to quit, to give up, and yet you know you can't. In this session, Senior Living Specialist Nancy Nelson shares keen insights into dealing with this all-too-common experience among caregivers.

Most adult children run into unnecessary challenges and frustrations when dealing with an aging parent with cognitive decline and/or dementia. In this episode, Nancy Nelson offers life-changing advice on how to communicate effectively with parents who need your support, not a "reality check."

In this episode, Nancy Nelson offers practical advice on how to talk to your parents about concerns and potential next steps as they age.
