When an elderly loved one starts to show signs they’re having trouble living independently, initiating conversations about elder care can be challenging. We talk to gerontologist Dr. Louise Aronson about how to broach sensitive topics like giving up driving, accepting in-home assistance or transitioning to a care facility. And we’ll hear from you: how have you navigated conversations about elder care with a parent or loved one? Or if you’re an older individual, how have you advocated for yourself?

Guests:

Louise Aronson, geriatrician and professor of medicine, University of California, San Francisco; author of "Elderhood: Redefining Aging, Transforming Medicine, Reimagining Life"
