Case Study: How to Achieve The Dream of Aging at Home

In this Life Happens podcast learn about the impact of new home care rules through a Case Study! Lou, Frank and Life Care Coordinator Susan Vail strategize share strategies to obtain long-term care benefits with a team approach.

This case study surrounds a couple, Robert & Nancy. They are currently living in their East Greenbush, NY home and struggling with health challenges. Robert especially needs assistance with worsening cognitive skills, transferring and toileting. Nancy can’t keep up with all his needs.

Their adult children, Patricia and Doug, live locally and want to help as much as possible. Patricia would like to be a caregiver to her parents but can’t afford to quit her job. The family hired a neighbor to help out for four hours/day paid under the table out of Robert and Nancy’s savings.

With mounting concerns about finances and stretched thin on caregiving this family hires a team of elder law attorneys and a care coordinator.

Listen as Lou, Frank and Susan pull together all the moving parts to help Robert and Nancy age in the comfort of home – and how it can apply to you and your loved ones.
