This webinar will explain what guardians need to know about funeral options so they can support any clients who need to plan their funeral. We cover suggestions on how to talk with possibly reluctant clients about their wishes or to engage family members in planning, when necessary; explore the details that need to be considered; discuss the pros and cons of pre-need contracts; and summarize options when the client is running out of resources to pay for funeral arrangements.
Participants will learn:
Intended Audience: Guardians and any other professionals who have the responsibility to assist others in planning a funeral
The webinar is eligible for one hour of continuing education credit from the Center for Guardianship Certification.
