Episode 4 - Exploring Assisted Living: Balancing Independence and Support

  • Summary

  • As your parents get older, you might notice some changes around their house. The laundry is stacking up, food in the fridge is going off, or the carpet needs a good vacuum.

    Perhaps you’ve noticed a change in your parents themselves—the shopping is getting harder to carry, they’re eating less, or not going out as much.

    These could all be signs they need some extra help—but getting your parents to accept that they need help might be a different question altogether. Putting it bluntly, suggesting that your parents need some extra help can be a minefield.

    In this episode Australian Unity's CEO of Home Health, Prue Bowden, and General Manager of Service Delivery, Elizabeth Albury, join performer, author and 'Parenting Up with Australian Unity' host, Jean Kittson AM, to discuss how to navigate these conversations, and how in-home help can be used to help your parents stay independent for longer.
