I wish we’d started sooner.
We hear this from clients all the time.
People have all kinds of reasons for putting off planning for an elderly loved one’s long-term care. There may be concerns about spending money. There may be resistance from the elder who mistakenly believes that planning means giving up control. Maybe family members can’t see the toll on the primary caregiver’s physical health.
But here’s the reality. The longer you wait…
…the more time you’ll waste reacting to one crisis after another.
…the harder it is on the family, especially the primary caregiver.
…the better the chance that the elder will end up in a nursing home.
…the fewer options you’ll have—and the most expensive those options will be.
Early Planning Makes All the Difference
When you start the planning process immediately after the trigger event, there’s more of what you do want and less of what you don’t. The Life Care Planning process is especially powerful at bringing about the results that everyone wants.
