Sad to hear Scott, went through a long journey with my father on this. My brother (thank goodness) knew exactly what to do as his step father went through it to.

We were able to get my Dad diagnosed via his family doctor, and quickly got control of all his accounts, bills, etc. Luckily we were able to convince him to stop driving and quickly sold his car (yes money went into his account). My Dad was super stubborn about staying at his condo, but his sight and hearing were also going quickly. We setup Meals on Wheels and got weekly visit from a health provider. We also made sure he had his capsule of life in his fridge, spoke to Co-op about getting his meds converted to daily bubble packs and delivered weekly. We got the lifeline type thing setup on his phone and a necklace for falls (which he would forget to wear).

Once it got too bad we were able to convince him he need more daily help so we were able to get him into a nice home. His health kept going down so (he was a vet) were were able to get him moved to a VA facility.

It's a sad, sad journey, but I tried my best to do the best I could for the man that raised me and taught me how to be a man. good luck and God bless!
