Planning Ahead for Long Term Care
Our country's population is aging. There will be a significant increase in the number of retirees coupled with a drop in the number of workers. This means a reduced tax base for social programs. We are living longer lives, but with chronic conditions. 'Downloading of care from hospitals to community resources means a significant increase in home care. What does the future hold - will long term care in nursing homes continue to be subsidized?
This presentation looks at these and other important planning issues. It is designed to be delivered in a 1 hour session. Rates available by calling us.
