IS IT POSSIBLE THAT SOMEDAY YOU OR A LOVED ONE WILL LIVE IN A NURSING HOME? Maybe not...but why not be prepared financially?! Many people find themselves in a crisis situation when a loved one suddenly needs more care than the family can provide. With care in a nursing home in Northern Ohio routinely costing $76,000 per year or more, it’s easy to see that the stakes are high! Without the right advice many people needlessly spend down their life savings, thinking they have no other option. The good news is that this can almost always be avoided. Even if your loved one is already in a nursing home, if there are assets left to protect, there are often strategies to help save what they have left, and qualify for benefits to pay for the care they need. You just have to know how. Our Next Seminars: April 7 : Quality Inn & Suites Royal Palm Room 2:00 pm & 6:00 pm 1935 Cleveland Road, Sandusky May 12 : Liberty Aviation Museum 2:00 pm & 6:00 pm 3515 E.
