While caregiving can be rewarding, it also carries an emotional and physical toll that can lead to caregiver burnout and, in some cases, compassion fatigue.

Memory Care vs. Caregiving at Home

Many older adults envision a future where they can age-in-place at their family home. However, this isn’t a realistic option for many aging adults. At some point in the aging process, older adults will likely need additional support with activities of daily living, especially if they develop chronic conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease or other forms of dementia.

What Is Sundowning in Dementia and Alzheimer’s?

Worldwide, nearly 50 million people are living with dementia with 10 million new cases being diagnosed each year. While each individual can experience various symptoms and side effects, sundowning is common in the later stages of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. According to a journal published by the US National Library of Medicine, as many as 20% of dementia patients experience sundowning. Sundowning, also known as late-day confusion, can cause symptoms such as confusion and agitation that worsen later in the day.

All About Purpose: What It Means and Why It's So Good for You

Psychologists say a sense of purpose can mean specific life goals or just a feeling of motivation to go about your daily to-dos. A sense of purpose — and the ability to adapt it throughout different phases of your life — has a positive effect on health and well-being, including your physical health and how you respond to stress. Studies suggest it may even help people live longer. Whether purpose is of the life-goal variety, just a feeling someone has, or somewhere in between, it can be good for health and well-being.

Is Being a Caregiver Right for You?

As their aging parents continue to require additional support, many adult children must decide between providing care themselves or hiring outside support. According to the Committee on Family Caregiving for Older Adults, more than half of adults will receive a family caregiver’s help because of health problems or functional limitations by the time they reach 85 years old. Traditionally, caregivers assist their loved ones with activities of daily living, including medication management, eating, bathing, getting dressed, and running errands.

According to the Alzheimer’s Association, disorders grouped under the general term dementia are caused by abnormal brain changes. These changes can cause a decline in cognitive abilities, memory, and behavior. Dementia cases are most commonly diagnosed in older adults, aged 65 and above, who exhibit common signs and symptoms. While dementia symptoms can appear differently in each adult, there are some signs that are reported often.

Whether they’ve planned to or not, many older adults find themselves entering retirement as a single senior. Single seniors are at risk of social isolation, which refers to a lack of social connection, and can lead to feelings of loneliness in some people. In addition to social isolation and loneliness, single seniors face other unique challenges as they think about retirement.

How to Cope with Losing a Parent to Memory Loss

As your parents age, it’s not uncommon for them to experience forgetfulness, like momentarily misplacing keys or having trouble remembering the date of their next hair appointment. However, some older adults might experience a more severe type of memory loss, which is not a normal part of aging. Nearly 10 to 20 percent of older adults age 65 and older have been diagnosed with some kind of mild cognitive impairment, while 10 percent are diagnosed with long-term memory loss, such as Alzheimer’s. While experiencing longer memory recall can be a normal part of aging, those who suffer from long-term memory loss often lose the ability to recall memories completely.
