CASE STUDY: An Older Immigrant Couple: Mr. and Mrs. Arahan
Mr. and Mrs. Arahan, an older couple in their seventies, have been living with their oldest
daughter, her husband of 15 years, and their two children, ages 12 and 14. They all live in a
middle-income neighborhood in a suburb of a metropolitan city. Mr. and Mrs. Arahan are both
college educated and worked full-time while they were in their native country. In addition, Mr.
Arahan, the only offspring of wealthy parents, inherited a substantial amount of money and real
estate. Their daughter came to the United States as a registered nurse and met her husband, a
drug company representative. The older couple moved to the United States when their daughter
became a U.S. citizen and petitioned them as immigrants. Since the couple was facing

of their time was spent taking care of their two grandchildren and the house. As the
grandchildren grew older, the older couple found that they had more spare time. The daughter
