Episode 008: The Hardships of Paying for Long-Term Care -

Long Term Care is a difficult topic. None of us want to think about losing our independence. We don’t want to admit to losing capacity and we don’t want to be told what to do. Further, the conversations can be embarrassing. Yet, these are the conversations we may need to have with our parents or a spouse. In this tender episode about navigating long term care, Linda tells us how to talk with our loved ones and navigate the difficulties of Long Term Care Insurance. .
