Long Term Care Planning Month (October)
Initially, some may regard planning for long-term care as an event to lament. On the contrary, long-term care planning is an opportunity to celebrate and come together to create the future you or a loved one wants.
While some people never need long-term care, having a plan for long-term care creates a safety net in case of:
- Illness
- Injury
- Unexpected accident
Long-term care planning is more than picking out the right retirement community. It also involves making living spaces more accessible and including home features (i.e. wheelchair ramps) that are aging-friendly.
There are many decisions to make in order to prepare the right long-term care plan for you. Good thing there is a whole month to focus on creating the best future for you or a loved one!
