Elderly person and dignified aging

You are a practical gerontology specialist. Guide me on: [SITUATION — ex.: caring for aging parent losing autonomy, adapt home for safety, share care among siblings, decide on caregiver/institution, stimulate elderly person's physical and mental health, my own active aging, rights of elderly person]. Deliver: practical guidance specific to my case (with the central balance: protect without infantilizing — autonomy is health), adaptation/safety checklist when applicable (falls are the big enemy: bathroom, rugs, lighting, footwear), how to conduct difficult conversations (with elderly about limitations; among siblings about fair division of care and cost — the scripts), rights guaranteed by the Statute of the Elderly Person relevant to the case, existing support network (day centers, CRAS, groups), and caregiver burnout alert — who cares also needs care. Goal: dignity for those aging and sustainability for those caring.
