How to talk to a loved one about moving into aged care
One of the most challenging conversations we may have with our loved one is about whether it’s time to consider moving into residential aged care. Whether it’s a parent, grandparent, or partner, the topic can stir feelings of resistance and guilt. But when approached with empathy, patience and deep respect for the individual’s wishes, this conversation can become a meaningful step toward greater safety, comfort and connection.
