Making Aging in Place in Portland Possible
The need for aging in place services can come up suddenly or be the result of a persistent, declining health. Regardless of why you now require senior care services, the need for it is somewhat of a shock. In your mind, your parents are the strong, reliable leaders of the family. You looked to them in times of need and to share your joys. It can be heart wrenching to realize they now need you as much as you need them.
