“How can my parents live independently in New York City?” Navigating the resources available to aging New Yorkers can be daunting. Families often struggle to identify resources for aging relatives and many are not aware of all the benefits and community services available.

Family caregivers often ask themselves:

–        What do I need to know to be financially and legally prepared?

–        What types of support do my parents need to continue living independently in NYC?

–        Who can guide me to the right resources?

LTC Planning_image2Join Hakuna, a company that provides experienced home health aides, for a panel discussion on Long-Term Care Planning at the West Park Presbyterian Church next Tuesday evening, June 16th. Co-presenters include Home Care Specialist Bina Luft, Financial Planner Andrew Margolin, and Eldercare Advisor Joanna Leefer.  The discussion and Q&A will provide a forum to answer questions around financial and legal planning, healthcare, residential options, and community support services.

Still a lot of people lack knowledge about the importance of long term care planning. This discussion can help increase awareness of our people specially in NYC. It is imperative that people know all the available options to fund for long term care in their location so they will know how to act or where to go accordingly. They could also know ahead of time, if certain protection such as ltc insurance is right for them.
Wish you all the best for this event.
