Signs of Changes in an Elder

Are you traveling this summer to visit an aging parent? Here are some tips for assessing whether or not they are experiencing changes in their daily functioning.

Do they have spoiled food or hardly any food around?
Is there a lot more clutter than usual?
Are they wearing dirty clothes or has their grooming changed?
Any dents on their car (if still driving)?

These are just a few early warning signs to catch before things get worse for the aging person in your life.
