Oh Sh#t! Now What? How to Manage Care for Your Aging Parent

This co-hosted podcast focuses on providing guidance for managing the care of aging parents. The podcast begins with introductions of the hosts and guests, who share their personal experiences with elder care. The main portion of the podcast features a presentation outlining common, ineffective approaches to elder care (head-in-the-sand, superhero, solutioneer, micromanager) and introduces the concept of a "care manager" role, distinct from a caregiver. The presenters emphasize the importance of prioritizing the aging parent's quality of life, suggesting the creation of a "top five" list of non-negotiable needs to guide care decisions. Listeners are encouraged to utilize provided resources, such as a free guide and upcoming course, to develop personalized care plans.
