Caregiving is a rewarding experience, especially when it comes to ensuring that your parents are taken care of. However, it can also come with challenges. Stress, lack of self-care, and other obstacles can contribute to emotional and mental health issues.
As an only child, caring for aging parents can be especially hard. You don’t have siblings to rely on for extra help, and you might find yourself serving as the sole caregiver. Part of Brickmont Assisted Living’s mission is to provide resources regarding senior caregiving so that families know where to begin when providing the right care for their loved ones.
If you are an only child, our assisted living team in Georgia is sharing senior care tips to help you create a strong care system to support you and your parents.
