Nursing home costs can quickly drain the savings that you or your loved one has worked so hard for over the years to accumulate.
We will work with you and your family to develop a plan that seeks to maximize government benefits and protect savings to the fullest extent possible.
Government programs that assist with payment of nursing home costs are ever-changing and budget cuts in the future may force the elimination of some services that these programs currently provide.
By planning to preserve a portion of your savings, funds could be set aside to pay for the services and needs of the nursing home resident that are not covered by government benefits now or in the future in order to enhance the resident's quality of life.

Some seniors may recognize that they may need some assistance in the home in order to maintain their safety and independence, but do not believe that they can afford it.
Others may feel isolated in their homes and would prefer to move to an assisted living facility for the socialization this setting would provide, but do not know how they will be able to pay for the facility each month.
There is a little known benefit available for Veterans and the survivors of Veterans that could help pay for the costs of home health care and assisted living facilities.

The emotional and financial challenges that the disabled face can take a toll on the disabled individual as well as his or her family.
Often times, government benefit programs help relieve some of the financial burden by providing assistance with payment of care through programs such as Supplemental Security Income (SSI) and Medicaid.
Because these programs are means tested, receipt of funds in excess of the program's asset and income limits could jeopardize a disabled child or disabled adult's continued eligibility for SSI and Medicaid.
