Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
Just because they are our parents does not mean they don't follow rules. Your house, your rules. No sleeping in my living room. Your tired go to your room. Is her room big enough for a recliner and a small TV.
Having an elder living in your home means they need a set of simple house rules to follow that respect your privacy. It's not ONLY her needs that rule the roost, your needs matter too. So it's time for a family meeting to lay it all out on the table. If she's disagreeable, you can help her move into managed care or senior apartments somewhere. Living with you is a privilege.
You do not give any details in your profile about her. Does she have dementia or other problems? Does she fall asleep in a chair in the living room? If she does does her falling asleep during the day effect how she sleeps at night? What does she do in the living room? Does she participate in family conversation and activities? It is possible that she is afraid she is going to miss something. You could tell her that she can keep her bedroom door open so that if something happens you will be sure to let her know. Tell her she does not have to "sleep" she can rest before dinner. Or lunch. If she has a TV and a recliner in her room that might not be the same as "going to bed" I suppose the other question is what do you mean she has "taken over" the living room?
You can try making it uncomfortable by moving easy chairs into HER room not your own living room. Of course the kicker here is that's uncomfortable for you. I don't know if you are dealing with dementia here, but if MIL is competent to understand you it is time for you and hubby to come together FIRST and then tell MIL that you need some time of your own. That the living room is yours and hubby's with the except of posted hours. Make her own room comfortable, have her music and TV there, and see to it that the best chairs in the house are in there, but truth is that she may be shadowing a bit, and wanting to be near you. If that is the case you may be looking at placement soon down the road. Wishing you the best.
