Embracing life’s transitions with dignity, clarity and stability ®
The Caring Generation®
I'm Pamela Wilson, spokesperson and guardian of The Caring Generation®. The role of a caregiver isn't one we expect to have in life -- until it happens unexpectedly. Unfortunately this time of life is overwhelming and stressful, placing caregivers and those needing care at great risk of receiving poor advice or being taken advantage of financially. An underground industry exists of those seeking to profit from "selling seniors" by not revealing information about reimbursements, payments or contracts. Caregivers and those needing care are to overwhelmed to ask the right questions and end up in unfortunate situations. The Caring Generation® exists to make sure that you have the information you need to be educated and informed, helping you make the right decisions about your care or the care of a loved one.
Join me weekly for discussions on topics related to caregiving aging and everything in between. I'll share the latest updates and research about health care topics, educate with Tales of the Caring Generation and share interviews and stories of others in similar situations. It's important to be educated and to plan ahead to avoid having to make decisions in crises. Please share The Caring Generation® and all of our past programs with friends, family and loved ones - we're creating The Caring Generation® every Sunday from 10a-12 noon. Our program is not limited by time zone or location, visit www.khow.com and click on the "listen live" button to join me live on Sundays.

"Assisted Living - When Mom or Dad Doesn't Want to Move"
What: Educational Event and Panel Discussion With Pamela Wilson
Date: August 28, 2011
Time: 1pm
Place: Morningstar Senior Living, 5344 South Kipling Parkway, Littleton, CO 80127
Title: Caregiving Dynamics: When Family Is the Problem
Event: 22nd Annual Alzheimer’s Association Education Symposium
Date: October 12, 2011
Time: 10:30 am
Place: Marriott Denver Tech Center, I25 & Belleview
Description: Caregiving would be great if it weren’t for family. It seems there’s always someone not pulling their weight or keeping their commitments; all the work is dropped on the responsible one in the family. From a professional perspective it’s “love the client, dread the family”. For professionals working with families, the client is rarely the problem it’s always the family who interferes and lacks education about the diagnosis and care needs – or is it? Pamela D. Wilson shares her expertise to help caregivers and professionals navigate the shark infested waters of family dynamics in caregiving.
