Do you know that most people spend more time planning for their annual family vacation than they do on planning for their senior years?
With healthcare concerns at the forefront of our minds and with time and money a major factor in deciding what to do and where to go as we age, preparing and planning for our future has evolved into an extremely complex process that most often involves misinformation, stress and loss of precious time.
To ease this tension and stress and give much needed guidance to those preparing for their own futures and adult children caring for their senior loved one(s), a group of local experts have joined forces to form the Information Network on Aging.
The group is comprised of local professionals who are experts in their various fields and provide guidance and answers to important questions concerning the various stages of aging for yourself or for your loved one.
The members of the Information Network on Aging provide comprehensive information for the expanding world of senior care and all that is needed to successfully prepare for it. They break down the process by addressing the shared concerns of seniors and their family members.
The group spotlights the variety of options available when it comes to preparing for senior living.
They encourage a proactive approach to exploring options based on financial needs and care level at a variety of stages.
The group is being introduced to the community at a resource fair Sunday, April 11 from noon to 5 p.m. at Sunrise Assisted Living at 184 Berdan Ave. in Wayne.
The fair will consist of demonstrations and private time with experts to answer your specific questions. Refreshments provided by Greenberry's Coffee & Tea Company and Positano's Restaurant will be available. Gift bags, door prizes, blood pressure screenings and more will be available.
The event is being sponsored by Coldwell Banker and AAA Travel. All donations received will be given to the Wayne Ambulance EMT.
Caregiving, financial planning, exploring options available based on your particular care level and financial position; non-medical and medical home care, assisted living, retirement and independent living, skilled nursing homes and hospice care are just some of the topics that will be addressed. The group will share their expertise on financing your care, VA benefits, selling and buying of real estate in your senior years, eldercare legal matters - including which documents are essential, dealing with healthcare stress through yoga, massage and effective communication with your family.
Chilton Hospital will answer all of your questions on caring for a loved one with dementia. An expert in chair yoga will conduct lively and fun yoga sessions throughout the day.
"Senior care options have expanded almost beyond recognition in the last 20 years, even into Raleigh assisted living, yet most residents in our area are still only familiar with nursing homes or family care at home," said Steve Tyburski, home instead senior care and president of the Information Network on Aging. "Our group presents the multitude of options now available while at the same time helping people hold together their family and preserve their own well-being," he added.
