To give you and your family the comfort of knowing that your loved one is safe and getting the right care at home or another residential setting.
Identify private and public funding to help you pay for care, as well as address the need to protect assets despite the high cost of elder care.

During the life care planning process, the Life Care Plan is routinely reviewed and modified as your loved one’s care needs change.

The services we include in creating a Life Care Plan may include:

Legal Services
Advocacy
Care Coordination
Public Benefits Support
Health Insurance Assistance

[/fusion_tab][fusion_tab title=”Preparing for a Life Care Plan”]Planning ahead helps access the right care today and provides a roadmap for the future.

Immediately after a “trigger event” that leaves you concerned about your loved one’s future, such as:

A diagnosis of cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, or other chronic condition.
A catastrophic event such as a fall, medication mishap, fire, accident in the home, or a car wreck.
Discovering that your loved one is wandering, malnourished, dehydrated, or unable to care for him/herself due to functional limitations.
A medical event such as a stroke, heart attack, or aneurism.
Burnout of the loved one’s primary caregiver.

A Pre-Crisis Life Care Plan benefits you and your family in several ways, including:

Offering your loved one the care he or she needs today, as well as relief for caregivers.
Plugging you into our network of community services and resources.
Increasing the chances that your loved one can age at home to preserve their independence and promote dignity.
Putting legal and financial affairs in order.
Enabling family to avoid the asset protection crisis when your loved one makes the transition to long-term care.
Empowering you with a network of support that will help you deal with every legal, health care, and long-term care transition that your elder will face for the rest of his or her life.
