Back Up Plan for Father-In-Law's Care

by Admin 2. June 2009 17:38
My in-laws are in their 80's. My father-in-law had a stroke and is now experiencing signs of dementia. They both live in their home. If my Mother-in-law had to go to the hospital, is there a facility where we can house my father-in-law until she's out of the hospital? He could not stay alone and cannot take care of himself. And of course he would fight not to come to our house. What do you suggest we should do if this situation arises?

Tip for a Confused Senior

by Admin 22. March 2009 16:48
When I was growing up in Illinois, my grandmother used to call a telephone number that gave the current date, time and temperature. I know a senior who recently moved to an assisted living facility in Monroeville, PA.  Do you know of a phone number such as this that she can call?  She does not have access to a computer and she rarely watches television, so I thought a phone number might giving her the current date and time might be nice.  She gets confused sometimes on what day it is, etc… Thanks for any help!
