Aging Life Care Associates and
the Guardianship Process
Aging Life Care Associates have been providing care for seniors, people with disabilities, and their families for more than 35 years. The array of services is matched only by the uniqueness of their clients. Aging Life Care Associates can be part of the guardianship process by providing assessments, ongoing care management, family mediation and expert witness.
Participants will gain an understanding of this unique profession and how they have helped families navigate the health care arena, advocate for those who cannot advocate for themselves, and how they can be used to help the participants of a guardianship proceeding get to a solution that improves the life of the person involved in the guardianship.
Intended Audience: Anyone who participates in the guardianship process; guardians.
