ELDER CARE CONFLICTS MEDIATION
WORKS FOR FAMILIES FACING CHANGED LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES WITH ELDERLY PARENTS
When one elderly parent either passes away leaving the other elderly parent
living alone, or when one or both parents are growing older and in need
of greater attention or care, grown children often struggle out of concern
and love for the best course of action. Such conflicts are expected and
are normal. Such conflicts often include multiple siblings and their spouses
as well. The conflicts also involve the need for siblings and the aging
parent, when at all possible, to discuss and decide on new living arrangements,
powers of attorney, new ownership structures for bank accounts and other
assets. Mediators can facilitate this dialogue and decision- making process.
Mediators can also assist with informed decision making and resource referrals
for families facing Medicare and Medicaid requirements, assisted living
needs as well as with other specific issues facing the parent and grown
children both financially and emotionally.
Mediators of Louise Phipps Senft & Associates/Baltimore Mediation
believe in Better Process…Better Outcome.
