Caring For Your Aging Parents

In this video counselors Dr Kevon Owen and Shawn Maguire are discussing “Caring For Your Aging Parents”.

Life is a journey. Along that journey we grow up, move out of our parents home and start life. Could be attending college, working, military service and many other things. We may have children and that changes everything. Your life will never be the same.

On another note you also age. So have your parents. They may or may not need your help in advance stages of aging. If they do are you prepared to help them? Do you still have your own children at home? Do you still have a career? Are you married? All of these questions play a part in helping when your parents need help at their advance age.

Do you move them in? Will your wife support you in doing this? Is their health and mental wellness doing well enough for you to handle having then in your home? Or do they need care you cannot give them at home?

These are all important questions to consider. If it seems just a little too much to handle but you are faced with this anyway a discussion with a counselor might be in order to look for ways for you to cope with this or ideas for care for you parents outside of your home.

To arrange an appointment with a counselor contact Dr Kevon Owen by calling 405-740-1249 or 405-655-5180. You can also visit Kevon’s website at https://www.kevonowen.com.
