Guardianship

In the event that you or your loved one requires a legal guardian, we welcome the opportunity to advocate for you like we would our own family members.

Every now and then, someone outlives their own family or experiences a painful separation. But these events should never mean that they go without exceptional advocacy and care. We consider it a tremendous responsibility when we are appointed as legal guardians to ensure the safety and well-being of someone who needs it most. Our nurses are Licensed Professional Guardians and our organization is often called upon by the Court to serve as Guardian of the Person and Guardian of the Estate. We would be honored to serve you.

Planning: Age Your Way
Whether you know exactly what’s coming, or you’re simply preparing for long-term care in your golden years, we help you and your family make the tough decisions now, and not under duress later.

Our experience has taught us that managing the changes that come from aging or sudden illness is one of the great challenges of life. Advanced planning allows you to be better prepared for that challenge. The better you plan, the more input you will be able to have in the decisions that affect your later years. Our founder, Debbie Pearson, RN, wrote a book about preparing for aging. We use the tenets of Age Your Way to help you prepare for the known and the unknown.

• Proactive Planning for Aging
• Documentation of Plans
