Starting the Senior Living Conversation with Someone You Love

Approaching the topic of moving to a senior living community with a parent or family member can be stressful and emotional, as it’s challenging to predict how they will respond. Some may be caught off guard, while others may have been considering the option themselves. However, discussing this lifestyle change with confidence, patience, and compassion can significantly impact the outcome.

Here are some tips to help you start the conversation about senior living with someone you love:

Get Prepared

Your family member may be hesitant about the idea of moving into a senior living community. These feelings likely stem from common myths and misconceptions about senior living. By preparing for the conversation, you can reassure your parent or family member and provide information to help positively shape their perspective about senior living.

Highlight the Positives

Emphasize the benefits of transitioning into a Richardson senior living community and how this lifestyle change can enhance their lifestyle. A few things to mention could include access to personalized care, connection and engagement opportunities, no more home maintenance or upkeep, nutrition and dining options, and on-site community amenities.

Practice Empathy

When approaching the topic of senior living, make sure you also listen to what your parent or family member has to say instead of making the conversation one-sided. Moving to a senior living community is a significant change, so put yourself in their shoes and understand their feelings, whether excitement, worry, or something else.

Keep the Discussion Ongoing

The topic of senior living is not a conversation that should happen all at once. Find opportunities to keep the conversation alive so your parent or family member feels free to talk about everything they are feeling throughout the process.
