Today\u2019s seniors have lived through significant historical events and changes \u2013 from the Great Depression and World War II to rapid-fire advances in technology and medical science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conversations with Seniors: A Collection of Treasured Experiences<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Along the way, through challenging and prosperous times, they have collected a treasure trove of experiences and wisdom that could guide us today and in the future. That is if we do not let time getaway. We need to create opportunities now, while we can, for seniors to share their life stories with younger generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Intergenerational conversations\u2014in various settings\u2014can enrich younger people\u2019s lives while giving seniors precious opportunities to relive their vivid tapestry of experience. As a result, one generation gains a new understanding and respect for the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Stories for All Generations<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Over time, many seniors share their experiences, one by one, with family and friends. That is good, but often, they are only spoken and not written down or recorded. Many times, they are passed along only to immediate family members and not others who may lack strong family ties of their own, thus missing out on chances to swap stories with older adults.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Equipping yourself and family members with a few suggestions to help bridge the generation gap and keep your aging loved one\u2019s memories alive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conversations with Seniors: 6 Tips to Bridge the Generational Gap and Keep Memories Alive:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #1. Enhance the Quality of Life with In-Home Care:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To enhance the quality of life of seniors, in-home care providers can encourage seniors to reminisce and recall important times in their lives. They can also help them or encourage them to write narratives about these experiences to share with family. This fits nicely with Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u2019 unique approach to care called Interactive CaregivingTM, which engages seniors in activities that promote their physical, mental and emotional well-being.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #2. Share with Your Religious Community:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">More and more, religious institutions are arranging special opportunities for young and old to share. If you do not have something like this planned at your church or synagogue, take the lead. How about a congregation-wide birthday party where members of all generations sit together by birth month, share cake and ice cream, and get to know one another as they compare notes about what it was like to grow up in their respective periods?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #3. Share Historical Experiences for Educational Benefit:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At schools \u2013 Seniors can add an important dimension to history lessons, from elementary school to college classrooms. They can provide first-person accounts and breathe life into the dry pages of history books. Some teachers assign students to interview seniors and write down their impressions and memories or videotape seniors\u2019 recollections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #4. Share and Socialize at a Senior\u2019s Community Center:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Senior centers also plan occasions that bring generations together, for instance, to recognize seniors for their service as veterans or community leaders. Senior centers often host writing classes and programs to teach seniors how to write their life stories to share with family and friends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #5. Share Stories at Family Gatherings:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There may not be time during a reunion, between eating and lawn games, to write your family elders\u2019 life stories. But a family reunion can be a good place to get started, as the storytelling and reminiscing unfold. At this opportune time, you could suggest putting these stories in writing. Maybe there is a budding young author or two in the family along with a gifted writer who could coordinate the project. And by the next reunion, they could have a volume of life stories to give everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tip #6. Document and Preserve Senior Experiences:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Life story writing has become a growing enterprise. Many entrepreneurs have launched businesses to help people who want to preserve their or a loved one\u2019s experiences. There also are plenty of Web sites that offer do-it-yourself advice. Just Google \u201cwriting your life story.\u201d The reality is that intergenerational conversations can take place anytime there is a group willing to share their stories and keep the memories going.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Comfort Keepers<sup>\u00ae<\/sup> Edmonton is Proud to Offer a Wide Range of Home Senior Care Services<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our trained caregivers will ensure your loved one is comfortable, independent and safe in their home.
