If you’re newly responsible for finding elderly care for a family member or friend, it can be difficult to know where to start.
That’s why I thought your audience would be interested in this actionable guide, Elderly Care: A Guide for Families New to Caring.
It provides an overview of elderly care, covering what’s available, as well as practical financial and legal issues, including:
- Different types of care
- Financing care
- Care assessments
- Legal considerations
- Home modifications
- Assistive technologies
Around 45% of older people in residential elderly care homes and 20% of those receiving home care are entirely self-funded. Experts predict that the number of elderly people who pay for at least some of their care themselves will rise in the near future, as public funds become increasingly stretched. Therefore, the guide points families towards alternative financial options to state support.
