The process of caregiving can be tricky, time-consuming, and overwhelming, but we’ve helped many people through this before. Having a Game Plan for Caregiving™ is essential to assure a seamless transition through the caregiving journey.

Here are just some of the items that may be in your Game Plan for Caregiving™:

  • How to decide when it is no longer safe for a loved-one to live independently.
  • Creating a plan for payment for necessary long-term care services and assistance in obtaining these benefits, whether that be through long-term care insurance, Medical Assistance, Veterans Benefits or private funds.
  • Understanding what happens to a loved one’s assets when they are receiving long-term care services, whether that be at home or in a facility.
  • Determining a plan for the best and most appropriate caregivers for you and your situation.
  • Delegating caregiving responsibilities.
  • Provide guidelines or caregivers regarding personal choices for desired care.
  • Creating a plan for the caregivers to avoid burnout.

We can see you through any and all of these processes until your Game Plan is securely in place.
