Caregiver for elder family members

...See more I am a new caregiver to my parents. Both parents were independent until recently. Both took a bad fall last month and now require my help around the house. My parents are very independent and very resistant to my help. Both are having a huge problem accepting that they need help. They really do not like me helping them because it is a big role reversal for them. But, I am the only family member who is able to help at this time. Does anyone out there have any advice on how I can help my parents feel more comfortable accepting my help? Thank you.
