Most Critical Skill for Family Caregivers
About Dale Carter
My name is Dale Carter. I provide insight and information to adult children of aging parents. I am one of those adult children… a long distance caregiver to my elderly mother. My home is in Indiana while my mother lives in her home state of Maryland. In March, 2008, I experienced, first-hand, the challenges of helping an aging parent in acute crisis. Living 600 miles away, it was a terrible feeling to get the emergency call from her friend.
