Webcast to focus on aging issues

If you’re caring for an elderly parent, you might want to tune into "Aging in America: How to Plan for it," a free public Webcast hosted by the National Elder Law Association (NAELA) and AARP on Oct 30.

The Webcast runs from 1 to 2 PM (EDT) and registration is required. Attendees will be able to ask a panel of experts from the two organizations about specific elder care issues. The program will cover these questions, among others:

How can I bring up the subject of aging with my parents, especially when it comes to their finances?
What types of housing options are available today and how do I know if my parent is at the right level of care?
What key documents should I have in place for healthcare decision-making?
What is long-term care insurance? Should I apply for it?

To register for the event or to view an archived version of the Webcast that will be available after the "live" showing, go to NAELA’s Web site. —Chris Fichera
