Life Care Planning

Informed choices for our loved ones

As they age, many people experience a surge of anxiety based on several factors:

  • Declining health and function
  • Increasing loneliness or isolation
  • Helplessness
  • Loss of independence
  • Fear of losing their assets to long-term health care needs

This anxiety can lead to an overwhelming fear of dependence and loss of purpose.

The children of aging parents also experience a surge of anxiety from:

  • Financial hardships associated with the high costs of care
  • Physical exhaustion
  • Increased responsibility for making decisions about their loved one’s care
  • Anger and guilt about not being able to do more
  • Loss of personal freedom
  • Fear of loss
  • Feelings of inadequacy in assessing their loved one’s needs and options

Aging doesn’t have to bring hopelessness or despair! We can help!

Through the Life Care Planning process, we bring experience and resources to alleviate your concerns and provide answers to your questions about the issues facing you and your loved ones.

A successful Life Care Plan involves the whole family. Together, we develop a Life Care Plan that is customized to fit your family’s specific needs and desires.

Our goals are:

  • To ensure that you or your loved one gets good care whether at home or in a residential facility.
  • To help you protect and preserve the assets you have accumulated by considering the options available to you to cover the cost of care.
  • To help you and your family make the sometimes difficult decisions relating to your long-term needs.

To prepare a Life Care Plan that is right for you, we will:

  • Evaluate your physical and mental abilities to determine which of the available options will best provide for your safety and well-being.
  • Assess your ability to manage your everyday life and, if needed, refer you to services which may enable you to continue to live independently.
  • Design an Asset Protection Plan that includes the preparation or revision of estate planning documents, asset transfers, applications, etc.
  • Develop an on-going plan to monitor your care to ensure the highest possible quality of life.

A Life Care Plan includes all necessary legal documents, consultations, referrals, and other services to provide you and your family with complete peace of mind.
