Some of the most important family conversations happen long before they’re needed.

During National Estate Planning Awareness Week, consider whether your family knows where important documents are located and understands your loved one’s wishes.

Estate planning can involve more than financial assets. Conversations may also include healthcare wishes, powers of attorney, advance directives and who should be involved if an older adult can no longer make certain decisions independently.

Having these conversations early can help everyone understand a loved one’s preferences and responsibilities.

➡️ Senior Care Authority can help families navigate the broader care-planning conversations that often accompany aging.

Understand long-term care costs, extra fees and coverage limits. Senior Care Authority can help assess expenses before care is needed.

Medicare Open Enrollment is also a good time to think beyond next year’s health plan. As families review Medicare coverage during Open Enrollment, there’s another important question worth asking:

If a senior loved one needed ongoing help with everyday activities, how would we provide, and pay for, that care?

Many families are surprised to learn that Medicare generally does not cover ongoing personal care when help with activities such as bathing, dressing or using the bathroom is the primary need. That makes it important to understand the difference between healthcare coverage and planning for potential long-term care needs.

Use this time to talk about what support is already needed, what family members can realistically provide, financial resources and long-term care insurance, and whether your loved one would prefer to remain at home or consider a senior living community if needs change.

Behind every care plan is a person, and often a family trying to make sense of many moving pieces. During Case Management Week, we recognize professionals who help individuals and families coordinate care, communicate across providers and navigate complex healthcare needs.

Families caring for an aging loved one often find themselves performing many of these same tasks: scheduling appointments, communicating with providers, researching resources and determining what needs to happen next.

They don’t have to navigate every decision alone.

𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝘀 𝗟𝗼𝗻𝗴-𝗧𝗲𝗿𝗺 𝗖𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗣𝗹𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗠𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗵. A reminder that important decisions about aging are often easier when they’re made before a crisis.

A long-term care plan doesn’t have to answer every possible question. It can start with a conversation about:

➤ Where would you prefer to live as your needs change?
➤ Who would help coordinate your care?
➤ What healthcare wishes should your family know?
➤ How might future care be paid for?
➤ Who should be involved in important decisions?

Starting these conversations now can help families better understand their options and feel more prepared for what comes next.

Alzheimer’s research is entering a new era.

From blood-based biomarkers that can detect signs of Alzheimer’s-related changes to FDA-approved treatments that may slow disease progression, recent advances are changing what’s possible in detection and treatment.
In this clip from the latest Boomers Today podcast, Dr. Zaldy Tan, Director of the Cedars-Sinai Memory & Aging Program, explains what these breakthroughs mean, and why detecting Alzheimer’s-related proteins is not the same as receiving an Alzheimer’s diagnosis.

In the full episode, “C𝗮𝗻 𝗪𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝗔𝗹𝘇𝗵𝗲𝗶𝗺𝗲𝗿’𝘀? 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗦𝗰𝗶𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗦𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆,” Dr. Tan joins host Frank Samson to explore what science tells us today about Alzheimer’s disease, prevention, brain health, and the evolving options for patients and families.

“S𝗲𝗲𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗵𝗲𝗹𝗽 𝗶𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗴𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘂𝗽.” 💜

It may be one of the most important lessons a family caregiver can hear.

Caring for someone living with Alzheimer’s can affect your health, relationships, career and emotional well-being. Yet many caregivers continue trying to manage everything themselves, often waiting until stress becomes exhaustion or a difficult situation becomes a crisis.

Accepting help does not make you less devoted. It can protect your well-being, support your loved one’s safety and give you more time and energy to be present as a spouse, daughter, son or friend.

Senior Care Authority advisors share this and six other essential lessons they wish every family knew about Alzheimer’s care, communication, planning and caregiver support.

Occasionally forgetting a name or misplacing your keys happens to everyone. But persistent changes that interfere with daily life may deserve a closer look.

Watch for changes such as:
• Increasing difficulty with familiar tasks
• Frequently repeating questions
• Trouble managing finances or medications
• Getting lost in familiar places
• Changes in judgment or problem-solving
• Increasing difficulty finding words

If you’re concerned about a loved one, start a conversation with their healthcare provider. You don't have to figure out the care journey alone. We can help.
