In this episode on the Living with Alzheimer's podcast, Christoph interviews Michael Loughman, Director of Sales for Holland Home, a nonprofit senior living and care organization in Grand Rapids, MI.
Michael and Christoph discuss how the Holland Home team helps families navigate the choice of staying at home versus moving to a senior living community. And they cover typical senior living options and how they differ.
They continue with Michael’s insights on how families can prepare for caring for aging parents, and recommendations for the first steps families should consider when there is evidence one or both parents no longer seems safe at home.
As they wrap up by discussing the dreaded question, “How can we pay for this?” Michael describes the main methods families use to cover the costs of senior living.
You can find more information about senior living options at Holland Home’s Resources page. On that page, you can also find their guide called Questions to Ask When Evaluating Assisted Living Options. In addition, you can find their downloadable Dementia Care Handbook.
