Today updated my page of links about caregiving, aging in place, and end of life:
https://dbaplanb.blog/links/caregiving-and-aging-in-place/
I'm no longer a caregiver for my parents, but it probably won't be that long until I'll need to click on these links for myself.

Autonomy & Manipulation
This stuff is more complex than I'd thought.
I've bought a #RedPlate and now an #ElderlyRelative is not rejecting their meal, or rejecting it so much less that all of it gets eaten.
I'd like to hear from other carers and also parents on when you think manipulation is ok, when it fits with autonomy, when it doesn't, when it's not ok, and things like that.

Was asked to open the plastic honey tub after a 45 year old massuese known for strong massages was unable to open it even with a spoon.
This is ridiculous - over half the population will be unable to open these food containers. We need government regulation.

An #ElderlyRelative is heartily sick and tired of taking 5 x #FishOil capsules the size of footballs (hyperbole).
Today the first dessert spoonful of fish oil went down in seconds with no drama.

#Australia
Looking at #AustralianValues.
In the light of #AgedCare both commercialised and #AgingInPlace.
Claim is that some 50% of institutionalised aged care recipients don't get even one visitor a year.
It's been pointed out that many of these folk will have made choices that; A. had them lacking a support community, B. had them with no friends/family who they wanted to visit them, and/or, C. have no one wanting to visit them.
Their choices form part of Australia's values.
Good morning, @kellygordonmn.com! I hope your conversation this morning delves into the difficulties that #AgingInPlace causes w respect to mobility (ie, driving).

Been thinking about the benefits to a community, a nation, and individuals, in having to some large degree, folk with #Dementia being cared for by family and/or friends being #AmateurCarers.
Some similar benefits might also come with #AgingInPlace. And be largely lost with #CommercialisedAgeCare.
(To be clear, I'm not advocating that this care be imposed on family and/or friends.)

Planning alone can be daunting and many are likely to skip the process. Dorot's course adopts a group planning model; they hear the seniors' voices, respond to their needs, and mold the future of senior care. #GroupCare #SeniorServices #AgingInPlace
