Conversation with the Elderly

Having a conversation with someone you don't know very well can be stressful enough. But if that person's an elderly person, it can be even more awkward. In today's episode we're gonna talk about some tips and topics that make conversation with the elderly easier and more engaging.

I will be starting my first volunteering venture for college at a local aged care facility, working with cognitively impaired and isolated elderly residents. Your video relieved some concerns I had, cheers!

I want to build a better relationship with my sickly grandparents with the small visits and little time we got left.

I met a 90+ year old woman and felt like I wasted the opportunity to have a great conversation about the olden days

My grandmother died
She was almost really healthy in the mind
And she loved me so much. However we lived in different regions
Me in New England and her at the south of Mexico.
I just wished I knew how to talk to her.
