Lessen the Effect of Alzheimer’s or Dementia on Your Finances

The lifetime cost of care for a person with Alzheimer’s stands at approximately $330,000 and families bear about 70% of that cost through out-of-pocket expenses and the value of unpaid care. The diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease makes planning for the future more important than ever and many people are unprepared to deal with the disease’s financial consequences. If your family has been recently affected by Alzheimer’s or if you are concerned about how to prepare financially for a serious illness, join us for this complimentary webinar.

Join Sarah K. Elyaman, J.D., LLM and Alana Hanshaw, CDP, CADDCT as they cover information for families and individuals dealing with Alzheimer’s disease or a related dementia. Topics include:

  • Signs of dementia and how it can devastate your savings
  • Making financial plans that fit your needs
  • How to find financial assistance for long-term care including veterans assistance
  • Community resources you can contact for help
