About the Event

No one likes to consider the possibility of a health crisis that would prevent them from remaining in their home. It is for this reason that few people do any advance planning or investigation into arrangements for extended full-time care.  While only a small percentage of Americans live in skilled care centers providing full time care, studies show that 70% or more of people over 65 will need at least some level of skilled long term care during their lifetime.

Join our local panelist experts as we explore the medical in-home health care and in-home care, and other options for staying at home.

  • What is the difference between In-home health & in-home care
  • Am I eligible for them?
  • What services are provided and by whom?
  • How are these costs covered?

Having the information and the answers before you need them is a gift to yourself and your family.  Please join us for this free educational seminar, presented by local experts in these fields.
