Are you navigating the challenges of caring for an aging parent?

Would you value expert guidance on how to plan, communicate, and support your loved ones with compassion and clarity?

Please join us on Wednesday, June 25 from 12–1pm ET, for a special conversation on “Caring for Aging Parents: Medical, Legal and Emotional Strategies.” 

Our panelists have decades of experience helping families make thoughtful, informed decisions as their loved ones age.

Together, we’ll explore:

  • How to talk with parents about future care needs and make decisions together

  • Planning ahead for financial and medical needs

  • Evaluating care options, from in-home help to assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing

  • Covering legal essentials: powers of attorney, healthcare proxies, advance directives, and more

  • Navigating emotional dynamics including successful family meetings, role confusion, guilt, and resistance 

  • Assessing cognitive capacity, and what to do if there are concerns

Whether you're just starting to think about these issues or already deep in the process, this session will offer meaningful tools and insights. We welcome both aging parents and adult children to join—this is for everyone navigating these decisions together.
