Elder Advantage
"Where do I start? Whom do I contact? What is the best solution for
Mom's or Dad's problem?"
Some of us have been there and asked those questions, or we may find
ourselves in that situation in the future.
We want to take care of Mom or Dad, but it is not an easy task --
especially if we are working full time and raising our own family. But
eldercare issues do not wait for convenience of time or place. For
example:
Sherry stopped by her mom's house every day after work. Her father
had passed away last year and he had been the caregiver of Alice,
Sherry's mom. Now it was up to Sherry to fill the caregiver role. Alice
suffered from mild dementia. She could still function on her own, but was
showing more signs of forgetfulness and confusion. Sherry would find her
morning medication still on the cupboard in the evening and wasn't sure
Alice had eaten during the day. Sherry couldn't quit her job to take care
of her mom, as she was a single mother supporting her own family.
Sherry had a lot of questions. What type of help was available to her?
Are there resources in the community? Who would she contact to find
out about home care or assisted living? Should she get legal power of
attorney and when is the right time to do it? What about selling mom's
home if mom goes to assisted living? How will that affect Medicaid
eligibility?
It's vital to get information appropriate for your state's Medicaid program
and/or the Federal VA Benefits program in order to maximize your loved
one's care and assets.
