Frequently Asked Questions
We have compiled a list of the most commonly asked questions pertaining to senior care services.
What if my loved one refuses care?
Many seniors are reluctant to accept care due to fear, pride, or denial. We help families:
✔ Start the conversation early and involve them in decisions.
✔ Address concerns with empathy and reassure their independence.
✔ Introduce small changes gradually to ease the transition.
✔ Have a professional care consultant step in as a neutral party.
Over time, many seniors become more open to assistance when presented with the right approach.
What legal and financial documents should I have in place for my aging parent?
To prepare for future care needs, consider having:
✅ Power of Attorney (POA) – Legal authority to make decisions.
✅ Living Will / Advance Directive – Instructions for medical care preferences.
✅ Medicaid or Long-Term Care Insurance Information – To cover potential costs.
✅ Estate Planning Documents – Will and financial planning for asset protection.
We connect families with elder law attorneys and financial planners for proper preparation.
Can I hire a Senior Care Consultant even if my loved one is already receiving care?
Absolutely! A care consultant can:
✔ Review existing care arrangements to ensure they are the best fit.
✔ Identify gaps or areas for improvement in care.
✔ Advocate for better services and resources for your loved one.
Even if your loved one is already in assisted living or home care, we can provide expert oversight and peace of mind.
