Perfect Gift for the Senior or Those Caring for Elderly Family Members
Family caregiving falls on the adult daughter, more often than
not. Most women respond to the requests of mom and dad and most
find themselves lost in the process. Elder care issues are far
more complex than child care. An elderly parent will continue to
become more dependent on you, where as a child will become less
dependent.
If your loved one called upon you to make decisions about;
health care, contracting with outside sources, advice on how to
prepare for future probable needs, (and so forth) would you have
access to the necessary details in order to effectively help?
Would you know how to answer questions regarding; income
eligibility, where to locate the insurance policies, the title
to the house or where the original documents are stored for the
will and living will?
Local author and organizing consultant, Jean F. Wales has
launched a new web site to help caregivers cope with the
challenges of caregiving. This new web site, www.bestdoitnow.com
offers a community forum where caregivers can find answers to
difficult questions about caring for older adults and exchange
ideas with other caregivers.
Wales has written a handbook to help families plan and prepare
to care for aging parents, spouses, and siblings.
Now, her nationally known book, Do It Now! An Organizing
Handbook for Families and Senior Citizens is available on-line
at
www.bestdoitnow.com in downloadable pdf format. 'Do It Now'
is a Certified Senior Approved Service (results on file -
877-620-6448)
Filled with checklists and ideas to help caregivers find answers
to difficult questions, Do It Now! guides beginning and
experienced caregivers as they navigate the maze of the aging
services network. You will also find 34 checklists in the second
edition of Do It Now! in downloadable pdf format. You can also
order a bound version of Best Do It Now!, if you do not want to
use the download option.
"We speak with adult children on a daily basis that are in
search of safe reliable services for a loved one", states
Barbara Mascio, President of Senior Approved Services. "I can't
tell you how often this adult child does not know the
information required in order to effectively assist in matching
the needs, geographical location and budget."
"We highly recommend Jean's book, 'Do It Now' to these callers.
It helps so much to have a template set up to follow and most
importantly, provides the opportunity to discuss topics with the
senior, that quite often, they do not want to talk about. Having
this handbook opens the door to discussion and relieves so much
stress for the entire family."
