Advance planning is more than simply having a will to distribute someone’s assets after they pass away; it’s an essential tool for families affected by dementia to implement and carry out major health, legal, and financial decisions on their loved one’s behalf. This episode will explain how families can utilize tools such as powers of attorney, health care proxy, and guardianship/conservatorship, along with legal options that can help families pay for their loved one’s care and protect their assets.
