Healthy Ageing: Managing Behavioural Changes in Ageing Parents

It’s normal for parent-child relationships to change and evolve as you and your parents grow older, but what happens when your ageing parents develop more difficult behaviours and you find yourself being the parent in that relationship? On this episode of Healthy Ageing, consultant psychiatrist Dr Wan Izwin Wan Hassan dives into behavioural changes among older adults, how their kids and family members can manage these changes, and when it’s a sign of a more serious, underlying condition.
