Remain at home.
Mom or Dad lives in a Dunmore residential environment. You remain involved through regular communication and visits.
Caring for Mom or Dad
doesn’t mean
giving up your life.
You may be managing appointments, medication questions, caregivers and calls while trying to work, sleep and remain present for everyone else. That responsibility can be hard to put down.
Be their son or daughter again.
Caregiving can change the relationship. A visit becomes a list of jobs. Lunch is followed by logistics. Time away comes with a phone kept close.
Sharing the work can create space to enjoy being together again. The aim is ordinary time: a meal, a walk, a conversation that is not another decision about care.
Alex Shogren lived with that burden for years while caring for both parents. Dunmore starts from an understanding that the family caregiver belongs in the plan too.
Read Alex’s storyThere is more than
one way to stay close.
Start with the arrangement that fits your family. Then work through the practical details.
Live nearby.
Mom or Dad lives with Dunmore while you rent or buy nearby. Be close without providing every hour of care.
Share a home.
Move together into a home you choose. Dunmore brings care to you, with room for work, sleep and time outside the caregiving role.
Keep your North Coast home.
If you already live locally, Dunmore at Home can bring support to your existing routines and neighborhood.
Share the work of care.
Someone else can help with the appointments, calls and daily tasks. That gives you room for lunch together, a walk, dinner or time working nearby without every moment being about care.
If relocation is part of the conversation, consider housing, remote work, community and your own daily life. You can rent first and learn the area before making a larger commitment.
Talk about the parts of the week you need back, whether that is uninterrupted work, a night’s sleep or the chance to take a weekend away. We can work through the care and practical support around it.
