FOR FAMILIES WHO NEED MORE THAN INFORMATION

Concierge

Care

Most families try to navigate senior care alone. You don't have to. When you're staring at impossible numbers and an impossible timeline, I'm here to show you a way through.

Care needs are fixed.
Costs are negotiable
— KELLEY LEWIS, THE ONE DECISION RULE

The thought "we can't afford care" is often more limiting than the reality.

If you closed Chapter 7 feeling overwhelmed by the numbers, you're not alone. Almost every family I work with starts here, staring at costs that feel impossible and wondering if there's a way through.

There is. Let me show you.

What Most Families Don’t Know

📋

Income May Cover More

Your parent's Social Security, pension, and retirement income may cover more than you think especially when it replaces housing, food, and utilities.

📄

Insurance May Already Exist

Long-term care insurance is often purchased and forgotten. A quick search through old files or bank statements can uncover a policy that changes everything.

🎖️

VA Benefits Are Underused

Aid & Attendance can provide up to $2,642/month for qualifying veterans and their spouses. Most families never apply — because they don't know it exists.

💬

Rates Are Negotiable

Room rates, community fees, and care level pricing are more flexible than most families know. Most families never ask. I do — on your behalf.

🏠

The Home Is an Asset

Your parent's home is likely their largest financial asset. There are faster, less stressful ways to access that equity than most families realize.

🔗

The Pieces Can Connect

The real power is in combining funding sources — Social Security + VA + home equity + family contributions. Rarely does one source cover everything alone.

THE SERVICE

What Concierge Care Includes

For families who need care now and can't afford months of uncertainty.

Most placement agents find a community and hand you a list. I don't. When you work with me through Concierge Care, I stay in the process with you — from the first conversation to move-in day and beyond.

Rate Negotiation

I've saved families thousands by knowing how and when to ask. Community fees, monthly rates, and care levels are all on the table.

Funding Strategy

Connecting the dots between home equity, VA benefits, long-term care insurance, and care costs — so nothing falls through the cracks.

Bridge Solutions

Short-term options when care is urgent but funding isn't finalized. You don't have to wait for the money to be perfect to get your parent safe.

Ongoing Transition Support

My relationship with your family doesn't end at move-in. I stay through the first 30 days — the hardest month — so you're not navigating the adjustment alone.

A REAL EXAMPLE

"One family came to me with a $4,800/month budget. Every community they'd called wanted $5,500 or more. The options in their budget looked like places they wouldn't leave their dog.

I found a nurse-practitioner-owned home. Five years old. Large private rooms. Excellent care ratios. The kind of place families dream about.

Listed rate: $5,500/month. I called the owner.

We negotiated a rate the family could sustain. That's $8,400 saved in the first year alone."

Care needs are fixed. Costs are negotiable.

WHEN THE FAMILY CAN’T GET ALIGNED

The Family Alignment Session

When families try to make care decisions alone, it can take weeks of debates, hurt feelings, and circular conversations — while the parent stays unsafe. I can change that.

MOST REQUESTED

Facilitated Family Alignment Session

By the time we sit down, I've already assessed care needs, reviewed finances, toured communities, and narrowed choices to 2–4 vetted options. I facilitate the discussion, watch for sibling dynamics derailing progress, and help your family decide how to move forward.

In most cases, the family leaves with an agreed-upon choice, a clear financial picture, and defined next steps. What might have taken weeks happens in one conversation

  • Pre-session assessment of care needs and finances

  • 2–4 vetted community options narrowed before we meet

  • Facilitated family discussion — I manage the dynamics

  • Clarity on who decides what and how

  • Agreed-upon next steps before anyone leaves

  • Follow-up support through the transition

IF YOU’RE DOING THIS ALONE

Preparation for Your Own Family Meeting

Not ready to bring in a facilitator? I'll help you prepare — what to say, how to structure the conversation, and how to move forward even if everyone doesn't agree.

  • Don't meet until you have 2–4 specific options to discuss

  • Create an agenda in advance — assign someone to keep time

  • Put the Clarity Compass™ questions on the table

  • End with clear next steps: who does what, by when sibling dynamics derailing progress, and help your family decide how to move forward

Concierge Care is for families who are ready to move. Who have a specific situation and need someone who can move fast, think clearly, and stay in the process with them.

If you're still in early research mode, the book and resources are the right starting place. When you're ready for more, I'll be here.

This is for you if:

  • Your parent needs care now or within the next 30–90 days

  • The financial picture feels impossible to solve alone

  • Your siblings can't agree and time is running out

  • You want an expert in your corner, not a referral list

This may not be the right fit if:

  • You're in early research mode with no timeline yet

  • You prefer to research and decide independently
