Estate planning used to just be about the avoidance of probate and estate taxes. Now, though these are important topics, estate planning and trusts need to address the inevitable need for long-term care and possible mental disability/dementia. Additionally, personal wealth can be wiped out upon the disability of either of the spouses if the trust and other assets are not properly planned for. Join Scott and Alexis as they review your options on how to pay for care, and more importantly, how to protect your estate, yourself, your loved ones, and your family relationships.

Scott and Diane will lead a frank and open discussion designed to help you understand the differences and advantages associated with both government benefit programs (as well as the potential effects on both due to government deficits). Confronting the costs of either acute or long-term care or both is often the largest expense a couple will face. Families often believe that it is too late or early to plan – and they must bare these costs on their own. Though this may have been true 10 or 20 years ago, that is not the law now. We know that families often feel overwhelmed and are relieved to find a path to working through it all. Understand how to help your clients plan through case study examples.

PREVIEW:
Working with older adults offers many benefits, but it can also involve challenges and frustrations such as: physical limitations, cognitive impairments, changes in environment, loss of independence, as well as many others. As professionals attempt to alleviate or reduce the challenges that affect older adults by suggesting changes and solutions, resistance to change is often exhibited. While this is a normal response – how we deal with and attempt to resolve this resistance is the key element. You will learn about the roots of resistance in the elderly population – why are they resistant, what causes resistance – and how to overcome it. By acknowledging and learning to understand the reasons behind resistance, we can learn effective strategies and techniques to help our patients/clients improve their quality of life and well-being.

Many Californians are concerned about the “new” changes to the Medi-Cal program. They have heard all sorts of things about those changes, some fact and many fiction. Many Californians believe that it is now virtually impossible to get the benefits that they are entitled to receive. For many Californians this could not be further from the truth. Not only do these benefits continue to exist but more people than ever can qualify for help.
This Book should answer any questions you have while dealing with elder care.
Years ago, helping clients navigate senior care wasn’t so complicated. Today, there are well over 1000 facilities and in-home care providers in San Diego alone – making the choices overwhelming. Family caregivers often lack information or resources necessary to coordinate care, thus looking to healthcare providers and estate planning professionals for guidance. Not all care – or budgets – are created equal. Jatana and Scott will break it down in a way that will allow you to provide accurate information and relevant resources for each of your family caregiver clientele.
