Long Term Care Insurance Options Explained

  1. Long Term Care Insurance Options Explained Alzheimer's Caregivers 58:21

As we age we know it’s likely that we’ll need some sort of external care. Most seniors I speak to are adamant that they don’t want to become a burden to their children. That’s admirable but it’s not always an option. Finding ways to make that desire a reality isn’t always easy either.

I know my Dad looked into and then rejected Long Term Care Insurance because it was too expensive.  Fortunately for my sister and me, Mom most likely has enough Money to live the rest of her life in the community she’s at now.  That’s important because moving her again would be a nightmare I have no desire to repeat. Maintaining our Mom where she’s cared for and comfortable is our number 1 goal.

Reaching out to insurance agents about insurance options usually leads us down a sales path. That’s why I am happy to bring this episode to you. As a result of having a conversation with a broker, you’ll have more knowledge when you talk to your own people.  Most noteworthy, there are more options than in earlier years so give this a listen.  There’s no sales pitch you have to sit through! This is a great way to answer many of your questions about long term care insurance.

After helping care for her grandmother who had vascular dementia, Jennifer realized her Mother was showing signs of early onset Alzheimer’s. After the death of her father in 2017 Jennifer went searching for answers to many of the common questions and Alzheimer’s caregiver faces. Being a busy entrepreneur Jennifer realized that a podcast would be the easiest way to learn more about caregiving while completing other tasks.

Sadly, in late 2017 she only found one and it didn’t quite address what she was looking for, so she did the next best thing, and started her own. The Fading Memories podcast is now in it’s fourth year and despite the death of her Mom in March 2020, Jennifer is still talking to caregivers and still learning how to be an excellent caregiver. On the podcast she discusses caregiving, brain health, self-care and how to age well.
