“Caring for Aging Relatives is Draining, Both Financially and Emotionally,” by Melinda Skutnick, CNET

Quote:

The high price of eldercare in the United States often falls on the shoulders of families, who struggle between making ends meet and enlisting the best care for their aging relatives. My own family’s situation in a suburb of Charlotte, North Carolina, is just one of many stories in a country where a growing aging population faces similar financial struggles.”

 

LTC Comment, Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform:

Every article like this one—and there are many—should end with this admonition: “If you don’t want your kids to face the same problems with you, research and buy LTC insurance now.”
