Self-analysis checklist

Are you prepared for long term nursing care? A simple test - subtract $5,000 from your monthly income. Is the answer positive or negative? If married, is there enough income remaining to care for your spouse at home? Ask yourself the following questions.

Do any of your family members require long term care?
Are you caring for a family member with Alzheimer's?
Are you, or a family member afraid of losing Medicaid?
Do you have long term care insurance?
Who will make personal decisions for you if you cannot?
Who will take care of your assets if you are unable to do so?
Do you have the documents to give your designated assistant the authority to act on your behalf?
Do you have a backup person or company to handle your financial affairs if your first choice becomes incapacitated, dies, or is unable for any other reason to assist you?
Do you have adequate insurance if you have to go into a nursing home for an extended time?
Do you have sufficient assets to pay for your spouse to live at home if you have to go into a nursing home?
If you do not have adequate insurance or sufficient assets, what are your options to cover the costs of long term custodial nursing home care?
We can help you with the answers to these questions.
