Helping a loved one transition from living alone to living with assistance

Helping a loved one transition from living alone to living with assistance

An introduction by Blog Host Margaret:

Sometimes in life there are difficult situations that need to be addressed and I, for one, haven’t always known what to do, where to go for advice, or how to plan. When I come across people who go above and beyond, or who have a skill set I see others may need, I like to share that information with everyone. So that’s what I’m doing now, sharing information on two wonderful people who have helped me personally; if you or a friend of yours needs help, please pass this information on!

Michelle Rogers, Home Instead Senior Care

I’ve known Michelle for many years, if you know someone who needs in-home care, Michelle is the person for you, she’s caring, professional and has a great group of people working for her. She goes above and beyond. If you have any sort of “care” question, Michelle will be able to help you or refer you to someone who can. Which is exactly what she did when I asked her questions regarding senior care, housing, and how to get the most help from Medicare, Medical, and Medicaid, she referred me to Lisa Bryant:   https://www.homeinstead.com/location/168/home-instead-about-us

Lisa Bryant, Estate Planning and Elder Law

We all age and sometimes we need help with understanding how best to make our retirement money last, how to understand government benefits, and how to do what needs to be done when someone is aging with health issues and needs a lot of care, maybe more care than we can personally provide. While we all know the importance of having a Will/Trust, few of us know that some attorneys only specialize in helping elder people with the problems that come with age. This is what Lisa does. Lisa is compassionate, pragmatic, and knows the Law. Should a loved one need to consider assisted living, independent living, or board and care, Lisa has a network of people who can help with reviewing options and placement, while getting the most out of government help and having personal finances stretch. (In addition, Lisa is practiced in helping Veterans and people with special needs planning). If Lisa can’t personally help, she will know who to refer you to.   https://bryantelderlaw.com/lisa-c-bryant
