I recently gave a talk to potential Seniors who were looking to move into The Cascades (201 N Jessica Ave. Tucson, AZ 85710). The biggest TIP given by Sherri Gillette of Caring Transitions was "DON’T give stuff for birthdays and the holidays. Instead give consumables..like flowers or gift certificates to restaurants (better yet..go with them) and trips. We have too much stuff."
I also gave a talk at Mountain View Retirement (7900 N La Canada Rd Tucson, AZ 85704). We had a Focus Group and discussed the two things Seniors wished they could do sooner: the first was to have moved in sooner while they were healthier and the other was not have so much stuff!
