Family Resources

Pacific Care Center helps families of seniors understand and adapt to the challenges imposed by disabilities as they age.

Seniors face many risks and uncertain challenges, such as:

• Loss of vision from macular degeneration, glaucoma, or cataracts.
• Decreased mobility and injury from falling.
• Risk of cardiovascular events such as stroke or heart attack.
• Reduced cognitive ability.
• Alcohol and prescription drug abuse.
• Unanticipated out-of-pocket expenses for increased care, home modifications, and medication costs at a time when income is often fixed.
• Isolation and depression because of changes in their lives that stem from their disabilities.
• Abuse (both physical and emotional).
• Fraud regarding any type of financial dealing.
• Lack of appropriate healthcare.
• Nutrition.

These challenges can be overwhelming for seniors and those who care for them to face and overcome.
