Elder Care Planning
Making end-of-life arrangements is a difficult and emotional task. There are many decisions, and the expenses are often unexpected.
Whether you’re planning a traditional church service followed by a graveside ceremony, a simple cremation without a service, or an uplifting celebration of life with decor, live music, catering and more, we want to help you understand the costs involved in funeral, cremation and memorial services.
As a certified Elder Care Planning Counsellor, EPC™, my specialization focuses on advising elders in financial, social, health, and estate planning:
A few items to consider
Aging and Health Issues
- How some health issues such as chronic conditions, dementia, and nutrition and fitness that influence our aging population.
