Loss of Attention Signals and Environmental Clues: Caring for the Entire Senior-Mind, Body and Soul (3 of 5)

Loss of attention signals and environmental clues may show your senior loved one is suffering the effects of aging. These signals can be in everyday activities like driving (low response times, rolling through stop signs, braking too quickly), or in smaller clues in everyday tasks (missed doctor's appointments, unpaid bills, improper placement of items around the house or making repeated phone calls to you at odd hours).

All of these environmental clues point to the fact that something needs to be done to help your loved one remain independent.
