Who Decides and Who Pays? What Healthcare Pros Need to Know

September 16 @ 5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
CEU Class for Healthcare Professionals hosted at Gurwin

Join us for a CEU Class on Economics and Ethics of Caregiving 

When an older adult needs care, families are often faced with tough questions:  Who can make decisions? What do these legal documents really allow?  How will we pay for care?

This practical, informative CEU* class will help you understand the answers—and provide tools you can use when guiding older adults and their families through the careplanning process.

Presented by Jennifer Benjamin, Family First Companions, and Jame Burdi and Helen Tuckman of Vishnick, McGovern Milizio LLP, this class will cover:

  • Health Care Proxies & Advance Directives: Who can make healthcare decisions?
  • Powers of Attorney: What do they really authorize?
  • Trusts & Long-Term Care Planning: What should families know?
  • Paying for Care: What options are available?

This 2 CEU credit class is designed for social workers, case managers and senior healthcare professionals.  Attendees will come away with practical strategies that can be applied immediately as well as greater confidence helping families navigate the complexities of aging and care.  Seats are limited.  Register today.
