Geriatric Services
As the “baby boomer” population ages, we often find ourselves dealing with aging parents as well as our own aging process. Aging parents can become more demanding and it is difficult to juggle our families, jobs and lives in general. In addition to that, we find ourselves worrying if Mom and Dad are okay. Alzheimer’s Disease and Dementia are real issues, especially regarding safety, that have to be dealt with. The uncertainty of whether or not to place your parent in a facility, or just what to do next, can be heart wrenching. Counseling can help you cope with difficult decisions and make it a less painful process. Sometimes it is very hard to know where to turn and what to do. Speaking to one of the geriatric specialists in our practice can help clarify difficult decision-making. Support is what we offer and along with that support, we offer referrals and ideas to help guide you.
