Are you spending your visits with Mom or Dad checking pill bottles and cleaning out the fridge instead of actually talking? When an aging parent’s health declines, the role of "child" often disappears, replaced by the role of "manager."

By transitioning "heavy lifting" to a professional team, your visits stop being about checklists and start being about connection. Imagine sharing coffee in a landscaped courtyard or enjoying a musical performance together—without the stress of a to-do list. It’s time to stop being a full-time caregiver and start being a son or daughter again.
