LONG-TERM CARE

70% of people turning 65 today will need long-term care services at home, in assisted living or in a nursing home.  

The cost for all forms of long-term care is on the rise and it is among the most significant risks to retirement and wealth transfer. Yet too often families stop short of preparing for future needs because:

  1. They are unaware of how expensive the cost of long-term care will be,
  2. The thought of long-term care can be too emotional or overwhelming
  3. They don’t know what options they have to address their long-term care needs.
