There is
help at hand if you are an aging parent or an overwhelmed child of
an aging parent/s.
Helping Elderly Parents course is the right one for you if you are missing out on
the quality of life and are reeling under the pressure of managing
work, children, household chores and taking care of aging parents.
This course will guide you on coping up with physical and emotional
problems and will help you deal with the retirement problems and
other financial and legal considerations.
This course will also teach you the
right communication skills and coping mechanisms to help you assist
your aging parents. A high quality life can be provided to the aging
parents and a helping hand be given to the beleaguered children with
the tips provided by the ExpertRating Helping Elderly Parents
Course.
In this first
lesson, you'll learn a few tools and techniques
for effective communication that will sustain
you as your Parents age.
Friday - Lesson 02
This lesson
will explore ideas that can help you help
your parent to maintain his or her zest for
life as circumstances change. You'll
discover some activities that you might not
have thought of before. But you can only
suggest that your parents get involved with
a new interest. It can be frustrating if
they refuse and you have to watch them lose
their will to live. My intent is to give you
many tools so you can keep trying until
something works. If the only behavior you
can change is your own, remember that your
parent can't help but respond differently to
that change. So at least that is in your
control. You'll find suggestions on how to
make the most of this fact in this lesson.
Week Two
Wednesday - Lesson 03
This lesson
is going to talk about ways to change how
you think about accumulating things. It'll
give you some ideas about what to do with
the things you and your parents already have
once you decide to free yourselves from the
burden of excessive possessions. You'll
learn about trusts and gifting away
financial assets in Lesson 8—for now, this
lesson is talking about artifacts and
material possessions, the things that fill
your rooms, have to be dusted, insured,
provided space, and otherwise cared for. In
this lesson you'll learn how to protect
yourself from the mind control of
advertising in this society of getting and
spending. At last, you'll have the awareness
to control your own spending habits and help
your parents start to unload their lifetime
accumulation of stuff.
Friday - Lesson 04
People often live
under the delusion that they're immortal until
something, like a death in the family, reminds
them of their vulnerability in this world. They
may not even think about what would happen to
their cat or dog if they got hit by a bus, let
alone how they would like their worldly goods
distributed. If you think about your health care
wishes at all, it's to hope that you do get hit
by a bus and don't have to endure a painful or
prolonged decline or death. Advance directives
are written documents that serve as an
individual's instructions regarding disposal of
his or her property. In this lesson, you'll
learn what documents you must have, as well as
those you should have for yourself and your
parents. This lesson will take a close at each
of the important documents, and will provide you
with tips on how to acquire and prepare them for
yourself and your parents with minimum cost and
effort. If you're at least 18 years of age, you
should have your preferred medical,
resuscitation, and funereal instructions
officially documented, even if you don't yet
have assets to worry about. You'll find out how
to address this critical need in this lesson!
Week Three
Wednesday - Lesson 05-
Even if you think
you know your parents inside and out, you might
be surprised by some of the things you don't
know. And some of those things may be important
to you should a parent have to move to assisted
living, become incapacitated, or die. This
lesson will tell you about some of the things
you should find out while you still can. In
addition to the documents that were discussed in
Lesson 4, you or your parents may have cash,
valuables, investments, pensions, insurance
policies, safe deposit boxes, a personal safe
combination, and account numbers that will be
invaluable to the executor of an estate. Do you
and your parents have all those things neatly
filed in one place? Lesson 5 will cover all that
and more.
Friday - Lesson 06
You'll learn
about practical and material matters in several
of the other lessons in this course. Lesson 6
will take a different tack. Every emotion that
there is to experience can surface at some time
when you're involved in the inevitable changes
that come with aging. This lesson will help you
learn what emotions to expect in yourself, your
parents, your siblings, and others. It'll
revisit some of the communication techniques you
learned in Lesson 1 as tools for handling
feelings that surface. This lesson will also
explore some new applications of pacing and
leading, and ways to manage your own emotions.
Week Four
Wednesday - Lesson 07
In the past, it
was the norm for family to absorb whatever
additional burdens came with the declining
health and abilities of elders. Community and
government services were limited or nonexistent.
That's no longer the case. You are not alone,
and the good news is that there are services
available no matter what financial situation you
or your parents are in. This lesson will explore
what's available, where to find it, and the
levels or progression of help that you may need
over time. You'll also learn how to tell when to
move from one level to another. After that, this
lesson will go over some strategies for handling
that moment when you introduce the idea of
getting help to your parents. This can be a
delicate matter, so it's best to be prepared.
Issues of self-esteem and layers of emotion may
arise when your parents find that they just
can't do all the things they used to. This
lesson will teach you to be on the lookout for
this as it explores finding help.
Friday - Lesson 08
The home care
services you learned about in Lesson 7 can
postpone a move to assisted living quarters, but
there may come a time when it's no longer
feasible for your parents to stay in their
current home. You'll learn how to discuss the
idea of a move with your parents, and ascertain
their preferences, fears, and concerns. There
are now several possibilities for increased care
or services other than your home or a nursing
home. This lesson will describe some common
ones. It'll explore the options progressively,
from fully independent living to full-care
nursing. This lesson will also talk about
downsizing, as well as relocation and other
services that you may need. Finally, you'll
learn to choose wisely if sudden illness or
impairment strikes, making a progressive
approach impossible.
Week Five
Wednesday - Lesson 09
In Lesson 9
you'll learn the five symptoms that reveal when
it's time for your parent to move to a nursing
home. Selecting a nursing home is one of the
most important decisions you can make. This
lesson will give you criteria and a checklist
for selection that will serve you well whether
you find yourself in a sudden crisis or just
ahead of a parent being released from hospital.
You'll be able to use the information in this
lesson to enhance your confidence in selecting
assisted living or other residence options.
Friday - Lesson 10
When the time
comes to move your parent to a nursing home,
your behavior can make a big difference in how
well he or she accepts the change. You'll have
to face the emotions of your parent and other
family members, and control your own. The
communication skills based on neurolinguistic
programming (NLP) that you have learned in
previous lessons will serve you well: pacing and
leading, gaining and maintaining rapport, and
using disassociation to control emotion. Lesson
10 will give you some more tips for applying
your skills during this stressful time.
Week Six
Wednesday - Lesson 11
Lesson 11 invites
you to consider death as a life event, another
rite of passage in the ever-flowing river of
existence. It'll share much of instructors own
experience with her mother's death, and some
thoughts that friends and students have shared
with her. What you learn will serve you well if
you're dealing with the impending death of a
loved one. If you aren't yet facing it, the
information in this lesson will help prepare you
for that eventuality. You'll learn practical
tips to help the dying person, and a few more to
help you cope. You'll be encouraged to conquer
your fear and reluctance enough to be fully
present when death is imminent, and this will
free you for a profound experience.
