My father experienced dementia after having a few strokes in his 80s . I took care of him for about 10 years until he passed away. I did get some help with his care for the last 2 years of his life. Then my husband and I took care of my mother for 3 years. A few years later we took care of a sweet lady in her home for about 18 months. I would like to continue this kind of work if possible in our new location in Arkansas.

I am 75 years of age, a retired Professor of Management and I continue to provide manager development workshops and organisational consulting. I write a blog on mindfulness to keep my mind active (researching and writing), to remind me to be mindful each day and to learn new mindfulness practices.

I help to lead a care management and in-home senior care organization and am a CNA.

Took care for my aging parents for 6 years and have navigated the health care and homecare systems -- as well as building support/friendship community and helping to create ease and comfort with them aging in place. They were married for 69 years and both lived to 92 -- passing away last year. An amazing chapter in all of our lives. Challenges wrapped in joy -- and sustaining memories. Would be happy to share my experience and the resources that helped me.

Caregiving you work with all sorts of individuals, some age gracefully some don't. I take time to help and assist in anyway I can

Hello everyone! My name is Rebekah and I live in central Georgia and work at a skilled-care nursing facility where the average age of our residents is 87 years old. I am currently in school and will graduate next year with a Bachelor's degree in Healthcare Administration and truly feel like the aging community is the area in which I want to spend the rest of my working career serving. The aging community can also pose a good deal of challenges that can be difficult to navigate so I would love to help you with any questions you may have. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns about your loved one and I would be happy to help you in any way that I can. Rebekah K.

Just my legal experience on addressing issues related to aging.
